I want something that's going to give a nice clean and crisp sound. Any and all opinions
are appreciated. BTW, I'm starting from scratch. I came with Bose factory speakers if
that helps.

whats your budget. 

no budget really. I just don't want to spend a ridiculous amount. I want good quality but it doesn't have to be the "it" brand so to speak.
  

I need an exact budget...

This would be pretty sick though

Thanks for the input man. I really appreciate it. I don't know much about speakers but I was told that 15"s miss
beats. Also what is your opinion on the new kicker CVX's or CVR's, I can't remember the exact name.
Thanks again to take the time out to answer.

That's a myth

sub size does not determine frequency response.

box tuning and bl does.

cvr's are average, same with the cvx...they'll sound aight in the right box.

The death row would *%%@ all over em, though.

 

[sdotrusherz]

Eggy, I got the box situation right. Tuned @ 33hz @ 4.4 cubes

I'm thinking about copping an amp for the components ... what do you recommend?

No lie..out of all the systems i've heard out here..none have ever "wowed" me


Every setup is put together wrong

small sealed boxes for monster sized subs

..stuffin 10" mids in the doors ...bullet tweets EVERYWHERE

 

[JayDean03]

what?

is there a setup thats at least iight in nyc?

 

[mondaynightraw]

There's a couple decent ones

One of my dudes got 2 nightshade 15's and 4 sundown 1500's in his magnum

And there's a couple out here with nice sub setups..but they have coaxils inside ran off hu power.

How to properly deaden your doors

and

EVERYONE should do this to eliminate rattles and increase bass response.

 

[imasoleman18]

its so ironic you posted that i was about to ask how i can make my trunk stop opening it self because of bass lol

 

[rizzo da one]

mondaynightraw could you reccomend something else for the impala. I don't think I'll be needing
that much bass. I just wany a respectable trunk. I'm not trying to beat down the block. Any input is appreciated.
