Xpost in A4 forum... stereo questions and ideas (kinda long) for MY 00 Symphony head unit
Hey everyone...
Well, the first mod I'm going to do is put a system in my car. I plan on keeping the head unit (symphony) because it fits and looks nice. The guy (he installed equiptment on our hummer, did a nice job) quoted me 2300 for the following system (includes 325 for tax/labor):
JL Stealth box with JL Audio 250 Watt Mono Amp
4" MB Quart front speakers
6.5" MB Quart rear speakers
JL Audio 150 watt X 2 power amp
I personally think 2300 is way too much. I was thinking more like 1000 i want to spend.
What do you guys think? I really don't want to spend tons and I do not want to go anywhere near competition. Something that sounds good. I listen to everytype of music, so def. need bass and better speakers.
I know the stealth boxes need mods in trunk to fit in the MY 00+ vehicles, but there a couple for sale in the classifieds. I would be able to save some money and get that used. BUT, would that be a risk? don't know much about used speakers. Would I need to find out any info (besides if it is blown?)?
For those that have put a system in their car, what was your experience/ favs/ cheap but good quality.
Of course, I thank all of you AWers for ruining my life because this is all I do now 8-p
