Hey Jeff, do you have a sub and amp combo? I'm just looking for something inexpensive that sounds decent. What do you think of Hifonics as a brand?

this one amp would run a sub and all four speakers

I thought you only had like a $300 stereo; It is an ACVW after all what do you need all those speakers for? Are you not the guy that said anything other than a basic stereo in an ACVW is crazy? Now your out shopping Big Watt amps for multiple Subs and such, but you think a carputer is to much?

Why would I buy new quality parts even if I had to save for them? I mean, I can buy used poop for half the price with no Warranty, or better yet I could re engineer it myself and hack it on there and then cry when it doesn't work.

Nothin' better than the old Punch series.  Friend of mine set up his F250 with nothing but Rockford Fosgate equipment and it kicked you in the chest... hard.  This would have been back in the early '90's.  (that's right, I'm efin old)  :P :P :P
