Here is a very old pic of mine
I like it. Nice and clean. I can get to my spare. The box is ported into my back deck where the oem sub would be. And behind is all the amps and nav & tv brains.

I would beg to differ! (not trying to argue k and yes I'm aware you said MOST competition ) For $300 i'd stay away from them, IMHO I believe the CVR's are way over priced. One thing that a lot of people dont think about is instead of spending say (in your situation) $300, you can get a pretty bad *** single woofer that could out perform a set of $150 woofers; ya feel? Now I personally would spend $150 on an RE Audio woofer (to name just one brand). One of those would probably meet or exceed a pair of CVR's... I'm sure they sound great dont get me wrong, I'm just the type who will look at EVERY option for what ever $$ amount I set. But with Car audio I've been doing for about 10 years and know what to look for.

but I would LOVE to know who sold you a pair for $300-$400 bucks! cause they are ~$150 a pair!

oh yea and an SPL woofer would look more like this:

I got mine for $250 + the box..... If you go to some store like Circuit City they'll throw them at you for $350-$400.

Anyway, I know what you're saying..... I plan on switching to JL and MB Quart for my next set up once I fry everything. I'm just saying, if you're not exactly looking for anything spectacular, these subs will do more than enough for you.

DC Audio Level 5 is enough to blow up your car... No thanks. Lol.

Mr Jokster

yea, circuit city (like any other chain) are rip offs!!! MB and JL will give you some nice sound. But for interior speakers, I prefer Focal, Moral, Rainbow or even Hertz can kick some ***! After my experience with these, I will never go back to another speaker.. on woofers, there are soo many ways to go! I'm running 2 JL 13w7's and really only have them to say I have 2 13w7's! I'm positive I could have found plenty better for cheaper...

LoL, funny shiits! I know all too well.. As I'm waiting for the paint on the GS, I got a call saying the rear bumper was unuseable! LoL, the bass ripped all but one tab and the bumper was barley hanging! LoL I knew it was bad, but not THAT bad! LoL

shvc1991

I might go with Focal for the interior speakers if I can find a good deal, but I got an amazing deal from a local audio store for 2 pairs of MB Quart speakers. I'll need to get speaker adapters though. 4"s just doesn't cut it.

Haha, DC will make you take funny ****s.

That sucks man.... Time for a Win or Vertex body kit. TADA! New excuse to make your car look beastlier.

Mr Jokster

If you get a good deal on MB, its a good deal.. They cant be frowned on, however I only support they expensive ones! I personaly dont like any other than those! With focal (like JL) they dont make crap! Even their low end will surpass probably ALL of the same price!

and I've failed to create a thread on the project I'm working one, but I've got the JP kit for the ride! ... Otherwise, I would NEVER paint my car from factor to factory! Kind of a waste. To spend money to make the car a bit better than it was before all my projects will always take steps to be completely different then any other! I remember when I had no choice but to get a honda (I know I know ) I'll never for get this: I went to the store and when I came out and walked towards my car, I couldnt find it?! there were 4 parked in the same vicinity of mine same car same color!! LoL........ i dont want to feel like a fool again! LoL. but yea, I like to be different.

Didnt think until now, but here are some pics of my trunk before I finished it! LoL (I decided to go with air ride AFTER I began, so now I must change EVERYTHING!)

Mr Jokster

iTrader: (8)

Im not sure how much they cost, but have you though of fabricating your own adapters? its fairly easy and can save you a buck! I'm yet to do mine, the focals I have are all 6.5's components, so yea I too will have to do so.

shvc1991

I know what you mean about that. I'm sticking with the JL subs, though.

Haha, Honda. Oh boy. That's cool though man. You must save up for a while before doing everything.

That sucksss. Looks like you put a lot of time into you set up. Now you have to change it. What are you using for the air ride? The universal kit?

Mr Jokster

iTrader: (8)

well the I had no choice with the honda! It was given to me after I rolled my Lincoln! I dont think I've ever owned a caca car! LoL, cars are my passion and wouldnt willingly choose to drive certain cars... and yea you cant go wrong with JL at all! theres a reason why people still compare the new stuff to JL! also a reason why I still use them. I believe all but maybe one system I've had has been JL. and yea, I had to take a sledge to that box cause I built that box IN the car! as for the air ride.... thats a WHOLE other issue! (was discussed in other thread) I was told that it was a custom kit and not the universal, but after I got it, I found it to be the universal and what made it "custom" were the mounts on the bag itself so the words they gave me were carefully chosen... but i'm not too ashamed, most use them. I got the kit from VTKustoms. I know wish I just got the air runner... I should have done a bit more research before I bought the kit, but oh well.

shvc1991

Haha, I like your choice of words. Caca car.

Can't wait to get rid of the stupid OEM rattle piece and replace it with a lip spoiler. JL, here I come.

Hey, everyone makes mistakes. Yours wasn't too bad. It's not like you bought a Bentley badged Honda and thought it was a Maserati.

Mr Jokster

iTrader: (8)

yea it was either caca or popo

and yea, either way, I dont like to make mistakes.... and I say whoever DOES make the mistake of buying a Bentley badged honda as a Maserati deserves to have it! I mean damn, you see manual roll up windows you should know its not a Maseratie

what JL's you looking at?

shvc1991

Caca takes the cakes.

Lmao. I was kidding on that one. You have to be full retard if you do something like that.

I'm looking at the W7s or course. They just look so bad ***.
