Bali Posted March 5, 2009 Report Share Posted March 5, 2009 (edited) So i bought this system about half a year ago if even that, from my local dealer. This was back before i knew shit about subs at all as opposed to what i know now. I didn't know at the time, but my friend informed me that i WAY over payed for my shit. I bought 2 10" street edge subs with a box, and some 250w amp. I thought it hit pretty damn hard until he threw his diamond m6 in my trunk and we drove around for a bit. My shit doesn't hit AT ALL unless i turn the gain all the way up, which then causes clipping at higher volumes. The $612 included that stuff plus wiring, cd player, installation etc, which they did a nice job on i'm just pretty damn sure i could have gotten something much louder for that price. What i plan to do is sell my subs with the box and everything on ebay and the amp also for minimum $200, hopefully $250-300. My question is, for about as much as im selling my shit for, maybe a little more, what is the best sub and amp combination i could get? I prefer something that will be the envy of all my friends but i don't want to spend too much as i have already been fucked in the wallet once. I drive a 2001 hyundai sonata with everything stock, (i think the speakers are actually damn loud) and i got a new battery, but it's nothing special. I prefer a good setup that doesn't clip when i turn my volume to 25 or whatever, and an amp with a bass knob would be nice I was thinking a kicker cvr 15" which i can get from my friend with a nice ported box already for $100 or off ebay without one. Amp, i don't really have any clue. Thanks for reading this all if you did, it might sound like a rant but im just a little pissed after finding all this out and realizing my shit sucks for um...600 bones BTW im new here obviously, hi!

Beanz Posted March 5, 2009 Report Share Posted March 5, 2009 so your goin to spend just 250-300 on just sub and amp alone? Quote That's why they don't deliver. Yer ass better go sit along the side of the road and wait. You can't expect them to travel up some dirt road in a hick / back woods town. Thats how horror movies start I explain things very simply and use analogies in terms of Pickles, and grape drink, pool noodles and jackhammers...if you can't put 2 and 2 together there man, There simply is not much more I can do.
