im pretty new to this. I just go my car a couple weeks ago and already im looking into aftermarket sounds. I already got the single din and now im looking into a HU and amp set up. i saw a setup like this on craigslist:

http://www.crutchfield.com/p_700MRPEB1/Alpine-500-watt-Dual-10-Bass-Package.html?tp=442

My question is for anyone who;s installed subs&amps, is it difficult to do because ive never done this before. I know i will need wires for the amp but anything else? Any help would be much appreciated. Im low on funds so thats y its a DIY project.

Also a freind of mine has subs in his rear deck instead of speakers. Would it be possible/smarter if i ran that setup w/o a box?

What ever you choose, we can help you here. Yes you need an amplifier wiring kit (easy to install).



A HU with RCA outputs

An amp or 2

A subwoofer

A box for your sub


What's your budget?

How much are they asking for on Craigslist for that set-up ? if it's around 125 bucks i'd snatch it up. It would be a nice first system.
