I know the basics but I need help putting subs and amp in car!

Question

Okay so I drive a 2000 Grand Cherokee and I'm looking to put either 2 12's or 2 10's for a good price, I am only 16 so money is kinda a issue. I'm not looking to spend more then 700 for a quality system. I know basic companies are good like Kicker. But honestly I want to know what else is going to work. I see audiobahns, MTX, and others that are affordable and dont know whether or not to buy. I also need help with an amplifier, I dont understand how to determine whether to buy which one. If anyone could help me out that would be great. Remember I'm only 16 and I only have my car for about a year then off to college so I'm just looking to bump a little not have a hardcore system but i want it to sound good.

Answer 1

If you know the Kicker name, stick with it. Their amps and speakers are all top quality. You can get a pair of dual 2 ohm subs, prewired, in a decent enclosure, on ebay for around $250. http://cgi.ebay.com/KICKER-CVR-12-ENCLOS...

Their amps are great too. A 750.1 would power them well. Here for $215. http://cgi.ebay.com/Kicker-ZX-750-1-mono...

Get a 4 gauge wiring kit and you're set. For well under $700.

Answer 2

well 1st if only putting a sub box in, U should get a mono amp(pushes only bass)and cause U got a truck get a bandpass box and a amp that matches  and is RMS (CONTINIOUS POWER) COMPATIBLE  dont concentrate on the max wattage,,, USE A 4 GAUGE WIRE SET  POWER WIRE ALONG THE drivers side and rca and remote turn-on along  pass. side,,,no audiobahns maybe mtx or kicker 12s,,,on a budget?  try craigslist some good deals but check the eq. b4 U buy it ,,stock radio??? U have to get an rca adaptor modulator  it has wires for power and the remote turn-on and for the rcas,,,                         hey e-bay is kinda tricky U have to bid and most times the price goes up as someone else bids(sometimes a friend to jack the price) now craigslist is one price and sometimes u can bring DOWN the price so        hey good luck,,,
