Your Ride Cost Vs. Your Sound System Cost


Recommended Posts

Referring to me or the idiots at my school?

I've never metered but I would be lucky if I even hit a 120 lol.

It's just that most of them have mommy-and-daddy-funded Kickers that they think are hot shit. There were a couple loud kids at our school but they just graduated. I don't think I'm the loudest at school, but I think I am a little louder than most of those idiots.

Not referring to you bro. I was speaking from personal experience with people like that. I should have been clearer. And I also agree with you on the "mommy-and-daddy-funded Kickers" lol. Off topic but, the other day I went to a "custom audio" shop around here and I asked if they could order Fi or RE and the dude was like "I don't know what those are but we have some Kicker L7's that are probably better than those generic brands."

Ah okay. Lol yeah nobody here really knows about Fi unless they are on this forum. There's a shop in town that deals DD and that's what they push on everyone. I have heard some loud builds from there, but otherwise all we have is a couple small shops, Best Buy and Wal-Mart. =/

Too many projects, too little time...

This is a tough one because I will forget a lot of things I am sure.

Crx --- 800$

Audio, close to 4 times the value of car. Right close to $3000 A bit more because I am not including the snazzy gold plated battery terminals and odds and ends like that.

Amps $750ish 2 out of 3 used.

Subs $700

Wire and fuses $150

Audio processors $300

Batterys $460

Mids and highs $400

Box $100

Alarm $125, Gotta count it because I wouldn't have it if it wasn't for the audio.

H/U free

Thats so far. Upgrading everything hopefully this summer.

Edit: that is this set up, I've went through other amps and subs

94 Deville... free, headgaskets, suspension overhaul, emissions system overhaul, a/c compressor, tires, wheels, interior blah blah blah, it disturbs me. Last year I was around 6,000 deep after getting everything back in working order on a car that the blue book value is only around 4 grand on. (Damn sentimental value)

Car audio

Hdc3-12s 470

AP30001d's 700

Box (had kentb build) 250

Wiring - 300

Speakers... Fullrange/components totaled around 450

Batteries - 800

Alternator - 375 external regulator was 60

A6450 - 260

Infinity ref 475 was 160.

Not counting all of the speakers I've switched and tried....

Total i'd say would be around 3800,

1200 more than I budgeted into it...... Damn hobbies!
