You guys are right, i feel a bit better this morning. And i guess they are decent products. Hopefully they last. Lesson learned.

It sounds alright i guess. Maybe ill get him to give me a discount on a window tint job or something. If i could get a link to the price of the amp somewhere please.

I agree, normally i shop around look at reviews and know the price of what im buying. I went out on a limb with this and it bit me on the ass. I dont want to make the assumption that this guy took advantage of my lack of knowledge. I dont want to go back the shop making accusations if he actually gave me a good deal. EDIT: how much do those amps normally go for? I cant find it anywhere online???

Im very new to car audio first car with a stereo i have ever owned actually. So i got a deck and some door speakers i wanted to get a good amp sub and box so i went to a local shop and told him i had a budget of about 300 bucks. he went to the back grabbed a dusty memphis street edge 12" (not even in a box) A memphis street reference 1.250 amp. He then told me a box was 50. He said he would take 325 for all of it. I told him to make it 300 after tax he hardely even hesitated and said okay. I thought i was getting a really good deal thats almost $40 that me "took off" rung me up and the prices are listed as Amp 154.99 Sub 72.00 box 50.15 tax (8.25%) 22.86 300 total. After Googling the amp i cant find anything at all! I googled the sub and found them for 50-60 tops! Enclosures are about 30-40 tops. I could have saved as much as $40 if i bought stuff online. And as far as i know the amp could have been cheaper to. Should i go back and tell this guy to give me some in store credit or something? I feel ripped off. What do you guys think? EDIT: also it doest seem like the amp and sub are as good of a match as i thought they where.

edit: i need to do more research im an idiot

What would be a good cheap amp to go with these?
