I was just wondering if I had enough money, which speakers, subs, and amps should I buy? Best sound and features.

Thanks

    Try posting in car audio section.

    Also, what vehicle do you own? What speaker sizes?

    if you had enough money, you'd just design and engineer your own to your likings... how's that for an answer?

    that has got to be the most vague, off the wall, "dad one day can I be an astronaut" question I've read on this forum in quite a while. No one here can answer that question Simba. Try the Car Audio forum if you want- but you're going to have to re-phrase and be alot more specific if you're going to get the answer you're looking for.

    Good luck.

    Don't be like that, man. He don't know...


    Simba,

    Like they said, you'd probably want to post this in the CA section.

    For my taste, I like the components. They are supposed to be of a little better SQ than some of the others.

    It will depend on the head unit, how much power you want to give them, and the vehicle. The speakers are only part of the equation...

    you're right Amulford: I apologize.

    Simba...

    Alpine Headunit with Alpine Navigation
    Alpine Midranges
    Alpine Tweeters
    Alpine Amplifiers for Alpine Midranges
    Alpine Amplifiers for Alpine Tweeters
    Alpine Subwoofer
    Alpine Amplifier for Alpine Subwoofer

    ALPINE Simba; but not just any ol' Alpine.

    The best, most expensive Alpine there is- you know, for the "if I had enough money" part.

    Of course this is all just my alpinion, I could be wrong.

    You might want to check with others in the Car Audio Forum.

    :rolleyes:

    yeah, definitely go to the CA side... as Alpine would be a good headunit choice but I wouldn't go there for everything else if money was no issue.

    Watch out what Alpine HU you get... the one's with the Glide Touch thingy are having a ridiculous amount of returns.

    That's interesting to learn. From playing with one on a soundboard, I thought it was pretty cool. However, I'm not real sure it'd actually prove to be a plus in a car while driving.
