16 year old budget build

[Duran 387]

Thanks for the comments everyone! Its greatly appreciated.

Hell I wouldn't even be this far along with the build if it wasn't for some of the things I learned on this forum.

Yea I doubt I'll go with the 1208d unless money is really really tight.

I'm thinking about the USamp MD-1D.

Oh and I'm located in northwest Florida, right around the panhandle.

There should be TONS of stuff in Florida.

Talked to my dad today, big change in plans.

I can only spend $100-150 of the budget on the sub.

So does anybody wanna point me in the right direction for a decent 15 for under $150?

Is he paying for all this?

Just find a way to make some money and get the better sub, it would be worth it.

Dude, have your dad front the $150 and you make up the difference. Get a BL with the options. You won't regret it. IMO, upgrading an amp is simpler than upgrading a sub (if all the wiring was done properly).

Besides, a useless 15" takes up more space than a really nice amp in your closet/garage/trunk.

I'm getting 60 or 70 from my aunt tomorrow. (Christmas present)

I was gonna get some nice seat covers and some floor mats for the car but I guess I'll put it towards the BL.

It will be money well spent.

[ShaneSauce 2]

Well my dad used to be really big into car audio so that's why I think he is helping me out so much.

He wants to me to have the right stuff and to be set up right.

Just browsing around for the amp really.

clickkkk

[dbjunior 0]

if you want the extra money for the bl you could get one of the lanzar opti1000 from db-r for 199 still a very good amp with enough power for a bl.

[billystorms24 1]

if you get an opti you can wire it to .5 ohm and you can buy my dual 1 ohm Fi bl

[ShaneSauce 2]

I saw the optidrives a while back at db-r for $199 refurbished.

Is it worth it?

The guts look promising, but I don't see any fuses anywhere..

[billystorms24 1]

[billystorms24 1]

[ShaneSauce 2]

I'm looking forward to a brand new fresh woofer on my doorstep.

Also I have bought/traded things on a forum before and I got gyped.

[billystorms24 1]

ok... i wasnt gonna gyp ya i have 100% feedback on ebay 69 items and i did 2 transactions on here. i just wanted to see if ya were interested

[ShaneSauce 2]

I understand.

What do you guys think about this deal?

Its pretty tempting, plus the great thing about the box I built is that I can use 2 12's or 1 15 whichever I decide on.

Sounds like a good deal and if you do it through ebay you have a guarantee no DOA, sounds to me to be a win win

[ShaneSauce 2]

Could I get a little reassurance on the 2 12" RE SE?

The sub+amp package seems too good to pass up.

[RobClay 20]

lol, im confused. why did you build a box for a 15 again?

[ShaneSauce 2]

lol, im confused. why did you build a box for a 15 again?

Well I actually built the box so I could use either 1 15 or 2 12's just whatever I decided to get.

Its almost 4 cubes after port displacement, I haven't cut the holes for the subs either.

that's a good package, you won't go wrong with them. RE used to a big forum boner, and had some outstanding products.

the ICON/sundown package(s) offered in the shop here would also be a great way to go. and would also be my choice.

wheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee
