ok few probs, one u said u have a week wich is now 6 days as u didnt get it installed 2day!!
If your still unsure of what to get, don't get it simply to "make an entrance" for one im sure that just rockin up in an FTO is entrance enough

but if u do get this system just to do that then IMO u'll regret it later
Second if u r gunna get it done before next wednesday, get it done pretty soon as u will have to do somethin about rattlin noises of some description outside the car, and it aint as easy as it sounds sometimes
No offense but if your gettin this deal just to impress your friends then it aint worth it, take a little more time and get somethin that will impress everyone if thats your thing

but yeh i think it would be good if we all rocked up together to the formal, that'll be a entrance... dont worry bout paying us, coz we're not TIGHTARSES

really? so u would help me out??? wow that would be great, but the thing is that ill be taking up a lot of your time.... and i feel bad for that... if u want to help can me orgainise an after party... kekekaka
because so far now... we can only think of beach... altona beach... but there are heaps of downsides to it, mostly because of weather

why would u go 2 the altona beach when the brighton beach is 2mins from the formal place?

by ANBU_fto
because brighton beach is to far for everyone there to travel home....
we all live in the western subbies.... like altona... willamstown... laverton... sunshine... footscray... and places close there...
ok ive decided on a subbie, i think im gonna go the infinity 12" one, from the kappa series...
but still not sure with the amp, and what kindve amp.. like what do i need.. like four chan amp or something

I'm with mikey on the amp, cadence offer great value for money, alternatively if u were still thinkin of addin another sub at a later date then a JL audio mono block would do very nicely
As for four channel amp, as long as u can bridge it to your sub then yeah thats fine, just make sure u can bridge it other wise u can only use one of the channels and it wont give u much power at all!!

thanks for that... ill kepp that in mind.
so it doesnt matter if i get an 2 chan amp?

Again u'll need to get a bridgeable one
as for whats best, im not too sure, would depend upon the amp itslef, just remember not to take peak power as its output as its nothin even close to that, plus most amp outputs are based on a constant 14.5 voltage which u will probably never get, and make sure they don't quote ya the power output at 1ohm as u'll probably never run it that low, 2 or 3ohm is a better indication of its power output

I think a parade of FTO would make as big an entrance as you could, and it would be talked about for ages!

Seems pretty simple,since you have Infinity Kappa speakers why not buy a Infinity sub to accoustically match what you allready have? Since you like r&b music i guess good "tight" bass would be what you want.Based on my experience with Infinty subs and speakers their subs will give you nice tight bass provided you install it in a sealed enclosure

by the way Infinity make amps too which once again would probably match their speakers too.Hi fi supermarket in ringwood sell a lot of infinity products at resonable prices.By all means listen to peoples advice but at the end of the day your ears and wallet are the best advisors of all!

i properly will go with infinity amps, because i already have the speakers fromt hem and a sub from them, and they sound heaps good
what about hifi supermarket near highpoint??? anygood there? wouldnt they be all the same?

Dont know about the highpoint store but they would probably have the same stock.My ears like infinty speakers as that is what i have,but my wallet doesnt,remember though quality remains long after the price is forgotten!Have a listen to them (infinity) and let your ears decide whats best for you.
