Help me build my future system
Hey guys, I'd like to ask for some help from the audio experts to help me pick out the components that will be going in my future audio build. I will be upgrading my audio system in the future but would like to pick out some components now so I can start looking for deals and snag them at good prices.
Here's my current plan, nothing but the amp is set in stone so if you have any suggestions, voice them! No suggestion is too small here. I'm definitely trying to stay within a budget. I'm a college student and I'm not an audiophile so I don't need a system that'll win competitions. I just want to upgrade the stock sound. Having said that, I would like to go more for SQ than loud bass. I don't want or need "trunk rattling" bass. With the budget in mind, I would like to keep suggestions for other equipment close to the price of what I list. Suggestions can be a bit more expensive but again, I'm not trying to spend an arm and a leg. Some requirements: - Must preserve as much trunk space as possible. - Must preserve stock head unit - Must look as stock as possible Plan: - Amp - Alpine PDX-V9 - Subwoofer - Image Dynamics IDQ 10 - Door Speakers - JBL MS-62c - Deck Spearkers - Don't know which or if I'm even going to use any yet. Suggestions / Opinions welcome. - Sub Box - ******** 10" Stealth Box (I need opinions on whether to do passenger or driver side box) - Sound Deadening - No idea. Any and all suggestions welcome. - Bass Control - Any ideas? Anything I'm forgetting? Another question, is there any possible way I may be able to set the system up so that I can remove the sub box easily once installed? I drag race from time to time and I'd like to be able to remove the sub box if it's easy enough to do. If there is no plausible way to do this, no biggie.

No audio expert here but can't go wrong with Alpine or JBL. 10" sub will give plenty of bass. I'd go psssenger side for stealth box ( only to offset weight of yourself in driver seat ). Wouldn't need to remove if bolted down for drag strip, not like your going to loose 3 tenths. I would get a bass remote so that you can adjust bass up front. Goodluck with the build.

That's definitely a nice sub enclosure, but the reason I didn't go with it is just because of the price difference between that one and the ******** one.

To make your install plug-n-play, get the FARK harness from ********.
