A little thread hi-jack here

What would yall (Miscue..) suggest for a sub system? I have already replaced my headunit and front speakers, I just want to get it on the lower frequencies I know I'm missing out on. I have a budget of around 300 (I know thats not a lot). And I'm looking for good bass to COMPLIMENT my nice speakers, not drown them... any ideas ... any brands to stay away from?

Not sure... you might want to look at a sub/amp combo like a Bazooka tube or something similar. You'll probably want to get an 8-10".

Ok just my thoughts dont do all of your system at once you will go Nucking Futs. thats what i learned get things one at a time its easier and you dont see the hit all at once. honestly i would go with a new head unit first. then get an amp. either a 4 channel or a 2 channel. on average for a GOOD amp you should be spending roughly about a buck a watt. nest if you got the 4 channel amp get one or 2 nice set of components. dont overlook this because these will make your system. i personally LOVE alpine but Diamond Audio have nice sets of components and are honestly the best bang for the buck. the Hexes keep up with the high end Focal. after you get that find some subs. here there are plenty of choices. MMats make great subs honestly the 2.5 are good enough, Diamond TDX's are great, Alpine Type X's are great, Kicker Solobarics are great.there are a few more that im missing but you get the point. If you go cheap you will have to replace it later with something better dont spend the money on somthing cheap. After all that you can go with a nice zapco eq to control everything better. yes you will spend about 2-3k overall but do it in steps and you wont regret it. Also remember to give yourself some headroom because after a month of listening to music at a certain level you will want more and it wont be loud anymore happens to me all the time. Damn i gave you a long ars story. anyways if you need help in wiring, custom work, ect... feel free to pm me.

P.S if you want i can make suggestions on a full blown system for you too look at.

Those are some good recommendations. The thought process is what's important... not so much brands/models... etc. Follow the right process... you get the right stuff for you, whatever that may be.
