Also the install. Why pay out to have someone do it?

I don't know how to install much. I've never done any soldering or anything like that. I'm not completely retarded on wiring and stuff, I can build a computer, but car wise, I just don't know...

Going to the car store in like an hour to check out some stuff. Including the box and how much installation will be. In the mean time, keep the reviews coming, I want to make sure this system will work and satisfy my needs.

My store offered a custom box fit to my likings for $80, should I just take that? Or should I get a good prefab somewhere? I can get a qlogic one for like $80 or so..

Got the speakers brand new in a box with a 1 year warranty from SonicElectronix. I like them so far, haven't gotten them installed though.

Also got the wires from KnuKonceptz, got the eKO 4 AWG Ampo kit, feels kind of cheap becase of the broken box, but it's all there.

I'll be getting these installed hopefully within 2 weeks, I need to buy the amplifer and get like $200 for the installation. The subwoofer can wait. I was supposed to get this installed next weekend for sure, but the car thief that stole everything set me back.

I've decided though, I'm goign to get the amplifer + speakers installed. Then I'm going to get myself a new ipod, and then from there I can go with either the alarm or subwoofer.
