First off, I would like to personally thank Psycho for helping me out and giving me some tips & teaching me how to match amps to speakers/subs.

so here's what I've decided to go with. I work at best buy and I get ridiculous discount on Kicker, Polk, Infinity Kappa, and JBL (about 75% off). But the rest I get a pretty good discount on also (about 40-50%)

So here's what I'm thinking about buying. I have to order these online and so I think I'm gonna do that tomorrow since shipping takes about 2 weeks.

head unit - AVH-P3300BT (Was looking at 4V since I heard they have the best sound. Lmk if u guys see anything from best buy with 4v that would fit a 2010 VW Jetta 4dr sedan. double-din, single-din, it doesn't matter for me. I can get VW kit + single din)
Subwoofer - Comp VR 12"
sub Amp - dx500.1
speaker - DXi650 for rear & DXi6500 components for front
Speaker amp - IX500.4 or ZX350.4

thought u was getting compvx?

yeahh I couldn't find a good amp from kicker to power the 12" cxv @ 4ohm

4 ohm isnt a good load for subs always wire 2 ohm or less

oh shit I was looking at the wrong 12" cvx this whole entire time.
I was looking at the cvx12 with the 2ohm
but the cvx12-4 is what I really need.

mmk, time to do some amp shopping then. hopefully kicker has a good & cheap one

so I'm looking at these two and I don't see what the difference is. One is a "Full Range Channel" and the other is "Subwoofer Channel"
not sure what the differences are?

dont buy kickers man their subs are way overpriced and not worth it at all. Tell me the type of kicker you got/lookin at buying and I bet I can find a better sub for same price/cheaper.

Don't think 12" cvx for 100 bucks is bad at all.
Like I said I get a ridiculous discount from Polk and kicker

Alright guys so this is my final decision. You guys think I can run my A/C + listen to music without any issues?


head unit - AVH-P3300BT [$302]
Subwoofer - Kicker CVX124 (06CVX124) [$105]
sub Amp - 11zx7501 [$135]
speaker - DXi650 [$35] for rear & DXi6500 [$71] components for front
Speaker amp - IX500.4 [$135]


I just gotta go in tomorrow and talk to the installers about all the wiring shit + harness + vehicle kit for the stereo and whatever else.
the install is going to be a bit pricey. And the $$ besides the products are what I'm paying for them. Which isn't bad whatsoeever.
and the shipping on all of them usually takes about 1-2 weeks >< (I have to order them all online.. minus the head unit)

your electrical system should be fine. maybe grab a 1-2 farad capacitor for it just for a buffer zone.

is a cap something I can add on to my car later on IF it's low on power when running AC + music?
