Derrick824 Posted April 3, 2009 Report Share Posted April 3, 2009 If I was on a tight budget and just wanted a lil something I'd do the same thing except I'd use a ported box. Get something like a single Kicker CVR 15", a decent 500watt amp, and build your own box. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Armoredhaulin Posted April 3, 2009 Report Share Posted April 3, 2009 was looking into a Audioque SDC2.5 and a kicker zx 500.1 $160 for the sub and $180 for the amp It should sound fine as long as it has the Monsoon system in it. It is decent on the upper end but needs more on the low end. My GF & Bro had the same car so I can relate. Quote "I don't bullshit.

brewer_brewer Posted April 3, 2009 Report Share Posted April 3, 2009 an extra 100 hundred or so and you could have a FI q and a audioque 1200d Quote REFS http://www.caraudioclassifieds.org/forum/itrader.php?u=2026 http://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/topic/44535-official-brewer-brewer-feedback/page__p__625998__hl__brewer__fromsearch__1entry625998 "you're not allowing natural selection to work, you're like the guy that invented the seatbelt" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bumpindemlowzz Posted April 3, 2009 Report Share Posted April 3, 2009 If it doesnt end up sounding right he could always later on down the road add the speakers. Look on ebay theres components for cheap and 4 channel amps. Quote 2010 Silverado 18" DC XL 18 DC 2k XS Power Batts Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
