Impalalpine Posted November 8, 2013 Report Share Posted November 8, 2013 Welcome to the forum, I have a 2004 impala. (pounds fists) Your plans look good. although the amps and subs could be better. (personal opinion) Also, Knuconcepz wire is fantastic. power wire, rca's, fuse holders highly recommended, personally use. Not paid by them. Sky high audio has great power wire too. You can probably get away with not buying an alternator if you do your Big 5 (our cars have weak spots in there design) and have a nice AGM battery Build's consist of: 2004 Chevy Impala : Pioneer--------------------- DEH-X8600bs Soundqubed/AQ------ Q4-120 Rockford Fosgate---- Punch-500.4 Soundqubed/AQ----- Q1-3500D.1 Alpine----------------- 6.5's & 6x9's Subs: TBA All Knukonceptz and SHCA wire and rca's Home Music Setup (4) Soundqubed HDS200 15's in two separate 15.5 cubic foot enclosures tuned to 31 hrz --- XM radio hardwire Updates coming all the time on both builds n8ball2013 "bullshit. Everything fits. If you cut enough." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
john253a Posted November 8, 2013 Report Share Posted November 8, 2013 So you have about 900-1000 to spend(no elec) And because you picked mainstream your getting a hell of a lot less and lower quality then you could get Sub x2off http://www.soundqubed.com/HDS300_c_34.html Sub amp @1ohm http://www.soundqubed.com/Q1-1200D-Amplifier_p_30.html Or if you have the elec to support it at 1ohm http://www.sonicelectronix.com/item_67936_Hifonics-BRX2400.1D.html?SearchClickout%5Bquery_id%5D=5701450&SearchClickout%5BIgnore%5D=1 Then idd spend the 160 you had set aside for front and rear and spend it all on front and get a good 2 or 4 ch to power them (and just keep stock In rear for now and turn them down) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
