Id go with 2 treo 15" TSXs. With a Hifonics bxi1606d or a bxi2006d. Then get an Alpine 9857 with wiring all from www.knukonceptz.com i think that would be a pretty good budget system

What kind of car do you have? What type music do you listen to? $1200 budget just for the amps, subs, and comps correct?

matt i have to add to that.... thats ONLY in cases where space is an issue. If there isnt enough space for proper box specs and they are just shoving them togethor ya... or if they are prefab boxes... yea.....

But for the most part more subs = more output... really the only way it doesnt is if its installed completely wrong

I would personnaly get the BTLs over the MT's they have better cooling im pretty sure. but for your budget 2 of either of those are out of your range.
You would probally want to give each sub around 2K give or take a few hundred..... although they take more... Then getting an extra battery or 2 and a High output alternator.... wiring....

500$ BTL (rough price guess)
Orion 2500d($250-$400)

I wouldnt get a kinitic battery if you dont plan on switching the battery under your hood either. different floater voltage = draings higher floating battery and has to charge when u start car again... i would get a yellow top or somthing as a extra. maybe 2

350$ 2 yellow tops

HU and all is your choice... but for pretty cheap like 175$ you can get a JVC KD-G820 best HU i ever had yet.... went through about 10 until i was happy.
