u spent way to much

alpines are good subs.. just pricy.. alpine amps are worth it.. i would of gotten better subs.. u could get really good subs for aorund $100 a piece
Diamond audios or kickers comp vr

wat kinda of bass cap.. stinger cap is the best so is pheonix gold
your gonna need a optima battery yellow top $150 or so
u must of done those big store purchases.. u should of gone to a small audio store u get great prices.

let us know how it sounds when u do hook it up.

if you knew anything about audio i wouldnt question you....p3's arent top top top end stuff but certainly more than the middle of the road item...same thing goes for alpine type R's and the component speakers they carry are almost the best components made (any brand) and amps certainly arent bad either...

o yeah, i dont think that Blocked Shot's Alpine system is anywhere near my

JL Audio XR components, CDT 3-ways w/ fiberglass mold for the front door panels,

MMatts coaxial speakers, 3 10'' w3, 500/1 JL, 400/4 PG.....

i use a Alpine 9853 or whatever its called headunit, i dont think alpine components/amps are

even comparable to JL Audio products. I just want a 4 gauge amp wiring kit for my celica.

THATS going to be a strictly boom box stereo with hifonics 1000/1 amp + 3 10'' PG speakers.

OK dude first of all, Alpine is not that high end of stuff. You must not be that good of a car stereo salesman if u say that alpines are the best. I can name five brands of component systems that are way better than your alpines.
1. RE audio
2. Diamond Audio
3. Boston acustiks
4. Focal
5. Polk Audio
No I have heard the alpines than these speakers, I think alpines don't have the 'natural' sound.

Who cares what he has, and where he got it. Best Buy USED to have crappy stuff, but they are slowly redeaming themselves. Would I get anything from there. NO, UNLESS i had a nice discount. The only reason i would work there for a second job is the discount.

ALpine is alpine no matter where you get it from.

All the guy was doing was telling you what he has. Give him a damn break.

FUCK where is this forum going to?
