I'm looking at getting a new setup for my new car (when i find one and sell my current one !!) and want to know what you lot think i should get. I'm after SQ, but want it v. loud and bassy if poss.

I was thinking focal, RE etc. I'm after a set of 17cm components for the front door, either one or two 12" subs and a couple of amps (one to power components, one for sub(s)).Will my budget be enough ???

Cheers for any help in advance !!!

Steve

Have you got all the wiring, sub boxes and are the doors sound deadened. £500 aint alot for SQ. Best bet maybe look at second hand equitment.

if you want focal and RE new with amps to make them sound like they deserve then no your budget wont cut it, each of my amps is near your budget, to power my comps and subs...

But i have gone for high SQ over anything else, if u want SQ with some volume available u need to look at a good 12" single sub IMO, i have only gone fpor 2 for aestetics in new install, would rather have one.

To be close to your budget, you could get focal access comps (£133) - http://www.raysmith.co.uk/product_info.php?cPath=3_6_13&products_id=16

audison SRx2 (£113) - http://www.raysmith.co.uk/product_info.php?cPath=1_54&products_id=481

audison SRx1 (£226) - http://www.raysmith.co.uk/product_info.php?cPath=1_55&products_id=688

Focal 33A Accesss subwoofer 12" (£129) - http://www.raysmith.co.uk/product_info.php?cPath=10_11_19&products_id=36

All comes to around £600 and would be a very nice setup for SQ listening.

My sub and amp are available, £500 plus postage. Kicker S15L7 and Ground Zero GZNA2600 amp.Hardly used tbh. The L7's have won a number of SQ competitions over in the states.
