If you're just starting out... what type of music do you listen to, and how loud of a system do you want?

The equipment you gave a link to is of low quality and I would not suggest you waste time looking for that level of equipment unless your budget dictates that as the only option. I would rather have a single Diamond/Arc/Alumapro/AA,etc.......10" than those four twelves. We def need a bit more input(questions above) to give you a direction.

i wouldnt get it. you can spend a little more and get some good stuff. trust me, the last thing you want is crappy stereo stuff. it will give you more headaches than its worth.

did i see right? 80w rms? that would overheat with 4 subs.........even if there is two amps. thats no good man.

try a pawn shop if you want to save money. i did and got some nice stuff for cheap, prolly stolen, but who cares!

I know it. I want to see what you can do with your Max though. I have been doing some searching and found trunk cars above 153.?. Just giving you a hard time.

Go ahead and try... just remember, those trunk cars are using 1000 watts or more... I'm only using 500 watts for right now. Next tax return... the 150 db barrier will be broken. Because I will be pushing 1100 watts @ 1 ohm

I'm not a big fan of MTX and Kicker (blame the local dealer for that). The RF stage 1s are nice though. A coworker has them in his car, and it doesn't sound bad at all.
