Is there anything specific that is a must have?" I want it loud but I don't want my damn car 2 fall apart. Mostly rap. I think my dad said he's looking at a 1995 S10 I think extended cab he said. A loud but not rattleing system. |

Gold Member Username: Trey4sportsPost Number: 1523 Registered: Sep-06 | not a good choice. the subs great. but u need too much power for that sub and you cant do it anywhere near your budget. power conisists not only of a big amp but High output alternator and many batteries which in itself costs a good 500 +...look for a sub in the 1000 to 1500 watt range anything bigger you wont properly power and end up having an inefficient sub |
