bam bam what would you buy

[spirez]

I know you know your sh*t so what would you buy for roughly £500(possibly stretch to £600)? I need the following:

5.25" components up to £130

12" sub up to £200

mono amp up to £200

Already got an amp for the components and all the wiring, HU, changer etc.

Anyone else feel free to comment, especially those that know about their audio.

cheers

comps - genesis p13 (or dls r5a)

12" sub - diamond cm3

amp - alpine mrd-501

should be able to get it under £600

i get a bit of discount from alpine where i work, can get the amp for about £260.

btw is the sub geared towards SQ or SPL?

Im more after SQ but still want it to be loud

nice one

also, is the audiobahn alum12q any good? Ive seen some of these going for about £150. Looks mint but i dont know about SQ and reliability?

wouldnt buy audiobahn myself, never found ay of their kit that i find remotely appealing

any ICE that required good look to sell is not worth buying (look at sony head units)

if you wanted an 8" sub, i could have sold you a 8" boston pro series sub , amazing quality behind it, but not a deep enough bass line

diamond subs are some of the most controlled subs around, will drop as deep as you like, but can hit even the tightest basslines, mainly aimed at SQ, like all my choices are, but can score very highly in an spl test

highly recommended by many dealers
