Bronze Member Username: Mad_at_maddChico, CA USA Post Number: 37 Registered: Apr-05 | My sister wants to put a stereo in her car and I was curious as to what you all think about the components I have selected for her. - Memphis M1 12" - Memphis 16-MC250D - Focal 165-CV1 6.5" coaxials - Memphis 16-PR150.2 75 watts X 2 All of this is going to cost roughly $700.00 and my goal is to have a stereo in her 2006 single cab silverado that hits about 130dB's, but sounds exceptionally well. Let me know what you think, at this point I'm totally open to suggestions. |

Gold Member Username: The_image_dynamicSan Diego Post Number: 1661 Registered: Dec-06 | Not bad choices at all. I would swap out that sub for an Audioque 2.5 for $129 shipped. That is a pretty big step up and a savings of over $50. Then put that extra cash into an amp with more power. For instance this one, which would be great on a 2.5: http://www.woofersetc.com/index.cfm?fuseaction=product.display&Product_ID=475 http://www.audioque.com/aq/index.htm |

Bronze Member Username: Mad_at_maddChico, CA USA Post Number: 39 Registered: Apr-05 | Where do you buy that sub? |
Gold Member Username: The_image_dynamicSan Diego Post Number: 1662 Registered: Dec-06 | You get it direct from the company at the link I posted. |
Bronze Member Username: Mad_at_maddChico, CA USA Post Number: 40 Registered: Apr-05 | oh, ok then thanks |
Gold Member Username: The_image_dynamicSan Diego Post Number: 1663 Registered: Dec-06 | Oh.... my bad I quoted the price for the SD2, the SD 2.5 will be $159 shipped, still cheaper than the Memphis M1. |
Bronze Member Username: Mad_at_maddChico, CA USA Post Number: 41 Registered: Apr-05 | The M1 12D4 is $105 plus shipping from woofersetc.com. |
Gold Member Username: The_image_dynamicSan Diego Post Number: 1664 Registered: Dec-06 | No it isn't... that's the MS. The M1 is $172 + ship. |
Bronze Member Username: Mad_at_maddChico, CA USA Post Number: 42 Registered: Apr-05 | oops! well when you're right, you're right. Glad I hadn't already bought it. |
Gold Member Username: The_image_dynamicSan Diego Post Number: 1666 Registered: Dec-06 | Yeah the MS is a pretty cheap sub, you don't want that one at all. Audioque are made by Digital Designs if you were wondering and the 2.5 is the best sub out there for the cash right now. Those things kick like a mule and have great SQ too. |
