3: What exactly do you want your outcome to be? (Good sounding music, or loud bass?)Loud Bass
4: And specific sub sizes that you prefer more than others?No idea
5: How much trunk space do you want to use up?(Hatchback) All of it
6: What type of features are you looking for in a CD Player (aka Head Unit)? (Ex: USB, AUX, BlueTooth, etc) Dont care
7: What type of music do you listen to? Dubstep/Rap
8: Is your stock stereo system amplified? (You may or may not know this) No idea
9: Do you have Steering Wheel Controls? (Volume/Seek on the steering wheel) No

I really don't know much about car audio, I'm still reading up on things and asking friends. I would like to know from some experienced people what you think the best bang for my buck would be.
Thanks


For 1k I suggest 2x 12'' Kicker L7's. Solo barics.
1600 watt brutus hiphonics amp.
4x10'' EVs if you can find them. (For highs ofc)
And a 600.4 Kicker amp. (or a hiphonics 6400)
But as people have said, you will need the big 3 upgrade and 0 gauge power wire, and a power cap or a extra battery and alternator.

With a $1000 budget, you think he can get a power wiring kit, 2x L7's, a proper amplifier, and a proper box?

You're high.

I HIGHLY doubt that amp puts out 3000 rms @ 1 ohm...
For $319? Lets be realistic for a second..

And what makes you think that someone who doesnt know the trim model of their own vehicle can do this kind of work (No offense..)

/e
This is also coming from a kid that owned a Crunch 1000.4 (Same company as HiFonics)..

It would do ok, but it wouldnt do better than 2x T1500's or a T2500.

Hell, a T1000 would probably out-perform it.
