With the help of my 2gn nggas, I went out and bought some audio stuff today.

I got a Alpine deck that plays CD's/mp3's/wma's/ipod ready. I also bout some 6.5" alpine front and some Alpine 6x9's for the back.

All together it came out to 540, but I talked him down to 450 with installation. :) It sounds awesome, such clarity and defination. The only thing is I realized how much I need subs now :(

I might post pictures later If im not too lazy.

you should get some 3.5's for the dash :-D
And if you get subs, go ahead and get an amp for the speakers too. That way its all powered and sounds good :-)

other than that, sweet dude! good deal

I'm not sure what I want, I have always stuck with JL audio, and kind of don't want to steer in another direction, but JL's are so expensive.

What would u recommend, preferably two 12's

i have 2 blaupunkt 12's, running off only 220 watts each and they hit a lot harder than i thought. either way i'm really happy with them. oh and they're in a sealed box.

I just have a single JL12w0 in my car powered by a Pyramid 1000w amp. It's nothing fancy, but it gets the job done. I bought the sub used from a friend for $50 and paid $80 (new) for the amp.

I just talked to nitehawk, and he gave me some good prices on some Niche subs, but I have never heard them.

And for around the same price, I can go JL again.

Audio Pipe Eye Candies, people say they blow easy, but if u have the right amp to push them they are by far the best beat for the buck...
theres a small series that i ran with a 2000 watt 2 channel amp about a year ago, and i hit 139 on the SPL meter with the small series, these are the ones im gettin next, they come in Blue, Yellow, Red, and Green...
