I've recently been offered a couple of subs and an amp that are Audiobahn and the power of them combined are roughly 400-500W.

What I want toknow is:

1. Are Audiobahn a good make i.e: SQ and durability?

2.Can I run them with the O.E. Vauxhall Cd/Radio (CD500 i think)?

3. do I need any othe r componet to ad top my O.E. system i.e; Capacitor, other component speakers ect.


4. is 80 squid a good deal for two subs and the amp;-

subs are th chrome ones with falmes and amp has cooling fans.


Thanks for putting up with reading this far lol

All advise is needed therfore welcome

Yes and no.

If the amp has a different input other than phono leads then yes. If it only takes phono leads then no and the CDR500 doesn't have any.

No a mate of mine is selling them- mates rates plus they're used and he's asking for 120quide from other people.

He says they do work but obviously I don't know at the moment

1) Audiobahn are ok, there are better makes out there, but then theres alot of worse makes Cant comment on the SQ as ive never heard any.

2) I doubt you can tbh as you normally need something called "preouts" to run amps.

3) I would get a decent quality set of components because the standard ones are rubbish

4) You cant complain for that price
