With a $1,000 budget, I think you will find it very difficult to do 2 subs, mids and highs, 2 amps, and a head unit. It can be done, but the quality of the parts will not be good.

I would suggest going with better speakers over a pricey head unit, one sub instead of two, and a single 5 channel amp to power the sub and 4 interior speakers. This isn't the best set up (separate amps are better), but you can get the most bang for your buck this way.

I have bought tons and tons of stuff from them...

Recently upgraded my sons truck to a very sweet setup...

Gonna do mine in the spring.

PM me if you need some help. I am a custom pro at installing and setting up car stereos.

I put in a new deck, new dash speakers, 4 new door speakers, a box, 2 amps and 2 12s for right at $900...

Get off my lawn!!!!!

Are you into SQ or SPL? Decent audio is not cheap. I'd check out some of the audio forums for used deals. I'd pick up a JBL 900/5 for starters. As for the head unit I'd consider a good processor first.

SQ for sure.

Put that 1000.00 in the bank jack and listen to talk radio.

Problem solved.

who would take advise from a racist?

Thanks!

Look at all the audiophiles come out of the woodwork. Sick.

battery will die.

To finish it off find a Clarion HU that suits what you need.

I have the JBL's in my Yukon right now and I am pretty amazed how they sound for such a low price.

I am a guy that has bounced through MB Quarts, Focal Utopias, and (my favorite) JBL GTi's driven by Phoenix Gold Zeropoint amps and a Clarion 9255. I haven't messed with my last two vehicles because I don't have the time.

Oh Jesus, those guys tried to **** me on a HU 9 years ago.


Nakamichi in dash changer. $1200 (back then) that sent the signal to a PG Ti500.4 and Focal Utopias and a simple JBL GT8 sealed.

The first CD I put in went "clunk" and never ejected or played for that matter. They tried to send me a refurb and I demanded a new one or GTFO. They refused, and I called my Credit Card company and "poof", problem solved. :D

I dropped my 9255 in for my customer to get him by until the new Eclipse HU came in and he was VERY impressed. He wanted to purchase my 9255 badly, but there is no way in hell I would let it go.

If you want to save 200 bucks, you can get an RE Audio amp for cheaper. The JL crossover section is much better, but most people won't care.
