Unregistered guest | Hi, I have a Ford Windstar minivan, and have decided to get a new sound system for it. My budget is 500-1000 USD, and I'm looking for suggestions. Here's what one friend suggested: 2 Rockford Fosgate 10's in box http://www.bestbuy.com/site/olspage.jsp?skuId=6252342&type=product&cmp=++&id=106 9302293352 1 Pioneer 760 watt amp http://www.bestbuy.com/site/olspage.jsp?skuId=6982045&type=product&cmp=++&id=109 9388426171 Pioneer in dash radio http://www.bestbuy.com/site/olspage.jsp?skuId=6981359&type=product&id=1099388424 834 2 Pioneer 6" midrange speakers http://www.bestbuy.com/site/olspage.jsp?skuId=6196001&type=product&cmp=++&id=106 7391222748 Which ends up being about $500. Also, how much would professional installation of this cost? Another friend suggested that since its a minivan, it has plenty of space, so I should put in "2 15's and a few 10's". Comments suggestions? Thanks! I'm turning 17 on the 23rd of sept, so this is a b-day present for myself, and since I've never done this before, I am fairly clueless, so all help is appreciated. Thanks! |

Look online for these things (awesome products, awesome deals look at ebay). The subs are pretty good. My picks for a system like yours: Pioneer 3 ways ($40 on ebay) 2 RE12's (reaudio.com) $130 for both. Sealed box- $75 Pioneer PREMIER (better overall) 470MP- 150-200 Kicker 350.2 amplifier- 135 That is $555 and an awesome system for a budget system. That is very close to what mine is and I love it. |
