A few reasons. Firstly Bass is addictive and i am now on my third install in four years. secondly I have a very friendly local ICE shop that give me a very good discount. thirdly I have always wanted a show car and building an ICE car was alot cheeper than a racer or a heavely modded one, now i get paid to go to most the shows. expensive but yet ultimatly gratafying hobby.
Roughly this is what it would cost is I paid retail but I dont I get cost price from my work.
2 x Caliber Competition Pro Amps - RRP £550ea (Only a couple of these in the country)
2 x Caliber CWX Subs - RRP £200 (Only a couple of these in the country, same as JL W6 subs)
1 Set of 17" Polk Momo Components £550
Phoenix Gold Cables and accessories £300
Installed my self, we after all I do do a bit of installing at my work £2500 For 2 amps, two subs and 2 speakers. But it is absolutely banging, I had it up at a show and it was had a sound off with the JL demo car, the Audi any on seen it and mine won.
Kenwood KDC-M9021 h/u - £350 (seen them as high as £600 when I got it)
Vibe 10" active sub - £180
Jackson 5.25" Components - £60
Wiring - £30
All in all a cheap install that sounds better than the cost of its parts. (Kinda proves you dont have to spend thousands to get good results)
All I need now is another amp for the components and the car and specifically the rear shelf coatng in dynamat. Still enough bass to set the tracker off as I was driving to work, didnt knwo until tracker called me 15 mins after I had been pulled over!!!
