new and need some system help
Must get a alpine head unit period! I just installed my polk momo subs, than hit clean and hard, but i got a deal on mines... i bought my head unit for 150 from a friend new, i bought the 2 polk momo subs which were new,for 75 bucks awhile ago, saw them at tweeter the other day for 119 each,and my amp for 79, 1000 watt max,250 x 2 @ 4 ohms, 500 x 2 @ 2 ohms... so u dont have to go over a grand to get a banging system
hmm never heard of or seen a JL deck haha. yeah, alpine makes some pretty sweet car audio. if i had the money, i woulda gone with alpine subs too, because i like to keep everything the same in a system, i just iddnt have the money to buy alpine so i went for the next best thing IMO, kicker

Alpine Type-Rs cost the same as Kicker CVRs and get WAY louder and sound way better doin it.

i think its a little bit of a stretch to say they are WAY louder.
as far as sounding better.....i dont like how either one sound.
but iv'e been known to be really picky.
$1600 is lots man. I got a head unit, 2 x 12" 1000W, 3 amps (1400W, 600W, 250W) and fronts and rears to match all for about $850 including all wiring. I got all my kit so cheap cause it was all the model just past, so it was on sale, all 50% off. Plus I did all my installs myself. Still need to get a cap but. And another head unit soon. Im getting bored of this one. Point being, you can get lots of good kit for alot cheaper if you hunt/wait. Opertunitys will present themselves. I mean, you dont even have the car yet. And the best piece of advice I can offer is make friends with someone, who knows someone, who knows someone, who robbed somone. The cheapest kit is the stuff thataccidentally fallsoff the back of the truck.
