Well i'm sure he would be, but I can find some great deals on higher quality products online for similar and even sometimes less than wal marts prices on low quality stuff. If i was gunna go low end pioneer..i wouldn't get him somethin below the DEH-P370..as for Alpine i'm not familar with any of the model numbers.

maybe saying "huge budget" system in the topic is a bad idea when you only want to spend $300 on the entire setup.

I did a budget system for my mother's SUV for Chrstmas a few years back and spent 3 times that much on it.
that was an alpine source, 6.5" separates, 6.5" coax, 8" sub, alarm system, Alpine 3339 EQ.

lol..it's obvious we're not on the same page here. Perhaps I should have said "VERY TIGHT BUDGET SYSTEM"..I said Huge Budget..and in my mind it meant im trying to spend the least amount possible..rather than having no budget at all. Sorry, looks like i confused everyone on this topic lol. $300 is a very tight budget..that's what i'm tryin to work with.

yeah I think tight budget or low budget system would have been a better choice of words hehe
huge budget is like saying build me a stereo mister Gates! hehe


anyway after my first post I saw you meant you wanted to spend a lot less.
I figured the alpine CD player and two sets of speakers was about as cheap as you'd want to go after the amp and sub.
alpines with Vdrive put out good power for a head unit, and CDT makes some of the best inexpensive speakers you're going to find.

I would suggest trying to buy some good used stuff... Check out ebay and the "for sale" section on this and other forums, buy from people with good feed back.
