Take a look at this thread - $1000 Audio Challenge. not really...u just gotta be creative but if u must have a dollar figure...maybe for like $400-$500 bucks I've seen u guys pick out $40 component systems and $90 subs so I figured it'd be pretty easy.

Pair of .87 cent onkyo tweeters from PE $2.00 Pair of TB 4" drivers @ $18 each from PE $40 Make your own 2nd order xovers for about $30 a pair? $30 HU from Alpine.. $125.. give or take a few bucks Same 4 channel amp as listed earlier $260 Same Wiring kit from knu $36 Same sub from elemental designs $75 Box for $50 = $500 + shipping.. I rounded everything up.. so shipping shouldn't be much more. Remember this is why we're at war! I'm now officially a troll! 2004 Saturn ION QC with Sport Package AIM/AOL: animusshinigami

I'm liking the choices so far here... right now I'm mainly lookin for a nice HU but later on I might move my Kicker 5x7s to the back & have a nice component set up front.

I could have been working on a competition caliber system for 3k, which would have been extremely inexpensive for the results. Anyway, Blaupunkt San Jose (refurb) 99.00 2 Blaupunkt PA2150 Amplifiers. 2x150 to front speakers, 1 x 400 to a subwoofer. ~200.00 Tangband W8-740C 2 of these at 32.50 each, but there is a group buy on the SoundIllusions forums for 25.25 each. 75.00 shipped. that leaves 125.00 for components up front....

What I got from CC were 2 harnesses. The 1st change the Sony HU to a "universal" plug set, the 2nd changed "universal" plug set to Ford, ~$18/ea The one from Walmart seemed to be Ford-specific. Do you know if they have Ford - generic - Sony harnesses? According to my wife, the person she got was pretty much admitting cluelessness. It's a haul to get to from my job or my house, so any confirmation of the plugs would help. thanks for the help! Phil Originally posted by Batmobile: Originally posted by philpoe: Wiring harnesses from CC $36.06 Are you serious? The wiring harness can be bought at wal-mart for about $5!
