    what accesories do they include when you orde from them?

    I found a alpine cda 9825 and onlinecarstereo for 175 and i kind of like that.

    Alpine CDE-9845 or CDA-9847 for $179.99 and $199.99 @ Crutchfield.

    Alpine CDA-9847 - $199.99

    Receiver kit (installation kit/trim kit) - Free

    Wiring harness - Free

    Crutchfield's "MasterSheet Instructions" - Free

    Receiver Installation Guide - Free

    Standard Shipping - Free

    Not a bad deal all in all. Almost $40 in free stuff.

    CarDomain has a similar deal ... free harness and installation kit - price match feature works in your favor as well.

    So if I can find the 47 nice and cheap somewhere else and get it price matched at SD will they still throw in all the free stuff. Me and Ryan were talking about the 47, it has everything I want. It also happens to match the intertior of the car nicely :)

    I dont know how that kid consistantly makes 10+ page threads. Even the normal idiots cant pull that off. I guess you gotte be super oblivious to reality to pull threads like that. Im glad the kids happy, but then again I guess I really dont care one way or another.

    My favorite part was from which people he was taking advice from. He usually blew off the people that actually know what they are talking about.

    don't kid yourself - you're going to have that thing cranked up.

    I only had two complaints from my system. One from my RA (dear Lord, he put up with a lot from us...) walking by, apparently not appreciating "Layla" at 3AM. Oh well. Another was from the girl that lived above us, when I was playing the theme from Boondock Saints ungodly loud on St. Patty's Day. She said I was vibrating the mirror in her room - I was about to tell her what I could vibrate but left it alone :lol2:

    The guys down the hall would always play rap, so somehow they would always get more complaints than I ever did.

    Howard Stern Style :lol2:

    Well I am able to squeeze a extra inch or 2 so im gonna be going with a 10" RL-i, granted mike has any left! I think that sub will like the 400 watts from the kicker amp, and it will be plenty for my dad!!

    I dont think inverting would be possible, unless I made a odd style box, and im not that good of a builder.

    Ill do 3/4 i Just have to be careful of what woofer im going to get. Im kind of thinking about a ID 10 V3 right now. has a mounting depth of 5.5", and its a great woofer.

    Im gonna have to put some more thought into it.

    Awesome. I was looking at the L5 10", I was assuming I would need at least 1.5" behing the magnet though. What do you think about trying to build the box out of 1/2" MDF to save a little more space?

    Ive never used 1/2" before but I know this subs wont be abused that bad at all. My old man is only going to listen to old rock with it, nothing is going to be bass heavy at all. Only when I play with it am I going to put it through some real excursion testing.

    I was also thinking of a 12" l5. Im trying to get something real cheap. I could probably pick up a L712 off of ubid for around 50-60 But I know i cant swing it with that mounting depth.

    So the next obstacle im running into is box size. The location I have to use is. 40Wx12Dx8H

    Im gonna build a box and Have the sub firing up, but im running into so problems finding a sub with a rather shallow mounting depth that can take 300-400 watts. The ones that I do find would barely fit and im afraid they will hit ceiling of the compartment when playing.

    Anyone got any good shallow mount ideas? Id do either a 10 or a 12" woofer.

    I just won the 550.3 on Ubid for 104!!! Sweet as hell!

    Dont worry Supa, I got a 700.5 already, except its in my car.

    NICE.

    Now give me your KX700.5

    As much as Id like to do it my RL-p is enjoying it too much!! It was a nice one though the birth sheet was 890. Hopefully this 550 is underratted a little.

    Neon, Yeah the place seems great im going to spend some more time n their myself. Thanks Aaron for letting me know ab out it.

    EDIT I was wrong on the Ubid price my dad got it for 93 bucks!!! 118 w/shipping.

    SRT what should I do considering I want to run more than 2 channels? Should I just split the factory wires so there 2 ends coming off of each? That would make it so I could hook up 2 of the line converters, and thats if I go with the 550.3, if I do a normal 5channel then ill need 6 plugs.

    Tire, Im just going to use the factory wiring for the doors and run wires from behind the HU to the trunk. I think I may look somewhere else for the amp also.

    Aaron, thats a good idea, the 550.3 is exactly what im looking for, im going to have to check it out. How do I get a hold of the Next guys and do you have any idea of how much their 5 channel is.

    The front doors on the car are 6x9, which I find odd. So im just going to pick up a decent pair of them to drop in. Ill power them off of the amp and let the rear 6x9's remain on the factory HU's power.

    Im really trying to keep this right around 500 with everything. The biggest thing I need to work on is getting a god amp for a good price, the rest will be easy!

    Thanks guys!
