Help choosing system amps and subs

Recommended Posts

Watsup guys,

I'm new to this forum and in need of some advice. I bought a 00 mustang gt with the crappy Mach 460 system, the previous owner replaced the stock head unit w/ a Kenwood DDX418, love the stereo but it sounds horrendous with the stock sound system, I have compiled the speakers so far: DB drive speed series 6.5 components for the front and Hypnotic Zen 6x7 components for the rear. I need help choosing an amp ( I know i need something that is 4x80) and I need help choosing a set of 10" subs ( I was thinking of 2 kicker cvs subs in a flush mounted box) and an amp to power them. I want good clean studio sound, and I don't want to spend an absurd amount of money. Who's willing to make suggestions?

Welcome. What is your budget? I don't know what is an absurd amount of money to you.

$500-700, i've been looking at the SKAR vvx-8, and i believe i found the ported box for it, but I need help on suggestions with amps.

With that budget this is what I would do for a great starter system. Start with one sub then if you want more bass add another sub and wire to one ohm. You can also do 10's if the twelves won't fit. Spend the remainder of your budget on a custom enclosure if you can't build your own.

I would stay far away from skar. Have no idea about their subs. but their owner keven is really shady. For as low of power that you would be using I would try out SSA subs.
