New budget system (finally decided.)

Post by MobileAudio219 »

As some of you know I was in the market for a buget system. After much debate I finally got it all picked out.

Head unit: JVC KD-S100
$129.99 shipped
http://www.crutchfield.com/S-2prJxqoQr1 ... 0.html?c=3

Front Stage: Boston Acoustics FX6 $37.00 Shipped
http://www.onlinecarstereo.com/CarAudio ... ctID=22314

Subwoofer(s): 10" American Bass DX (ported) $65 + shipping

Front/Sub Amp: Hifonics ZXI 6410 $172.00 shipped.

Nothing real flashy, but it should work pretty well together. For the price I'm not sure I could do any better.

Those are crazy good prices.

It's amazing what you can get if you really shop around. MSRP for everything but the sub(s) comes to a total of roughly $1460. Add the sub prices and I don't know what it would be. That's hardly a buget sustem. You're paying roughly $500+ or so, I'm guessing. Nice. That's going to be a great system.

I'm hoping it functions well. It's the cheapest I could go while still feeling comfortable with the equipment.

EDIT: I just ordered the Boston Acoustics FX6 and Hifonics ZXI 6410.... $209 shipped for both!!!!

Just ordered the Head unit: JVC KD-S100 for 109.99 SHIPPED. Found an coupon online for 20 dollars off! Saving is FUN!

On a side note crutchfield said the item would NOT fit my truck, I think it's just to deep but they didn't give any more info nor do they give dimensions of the deck. I WILL make it work..

For the price the head unit looked pretty impressive.. I guess we will see!

Expect some reviews and tons of pictures.

I will say this, both crutchfield and onlinecarstereo both already shipped their stuff out, that makes me happy with both of them so far!!! Should have that stuff by friday. I need to pick up some MDF to start on the box and amp rack, the front of both is going to be fiberglass, PRETTY!!!!!

Good deal, justin. You should have a really nice setup there.

I got severaly friends who really believe in the JVC stuff. I like it as well.

I have done some business with C-field. Always very happy, ships fast and the customer service is just unparalled.

Onlinecarstereo, never did any bizness with them though. Im sure you will be satisfied with them though.

Keep us posted.
