hey what do you think about this?
-
well i was looking around at some audio and am on a pretty short budget and i was thinking of getting a alpine type r 12" and then i came to relies it could all come to a pretty big price after buying the box the sub and amp and all the wiring. then i kinda ran into all this and i thought it was a pretty good deal it consists of 2 S12L5's a zx750.1 mono amp a HSQ212V box and a sound quest 1,200 amp kit so its got all the wiring i need... i can get all that for $570?
well my budget i would like to be looking at about only $400 but a little more for some exceptions... also i have found this on eBay and just wonder what you guys think as am sure alot of you are a lot more experience in this then i am...
am kinda looking for a package so i dont have to deal with all the shit and looking around and so on.

They are not a legit internet Kicker dealer. No such thing. And, they are in Canada to boot. That in itself isnt a bad thing. But, they are selling way below MAP pricing which tells me one of 3 things..... They are cuthroating their prices and operating out of a back yard (which Kicker will find out and shut them down), They product is refurbished and doesnt carry the full warranty, or the product is outright stolen (which does happen quite frequently). Either way, good luck if you need warranty or tech support. You cant bring the product to your local Kicker dealer for warranty. The other shortcut you have listed is a product even Im unfamiliar with. And I cannot say one way or another how good it is quality wise. But for the cheap price, I'd be sceptical.
Oh and btw..... ZAPCO IS THE SHIT!!!!!! You should talk to ChuckTjamz on the rest of the audio your looking for.

I'm not a fan of buying car audio on ebay either....but im not sure where you got any of this info. After reading the ebay ad, they arent located in canada and they ARE a authorized kicker dealer. The reason all of the stuff is cheap is because it looks like its all 2006-07 model stuff. Kickers amps and subs look way different now.

mmc well thanks any ways for the input and the info well i think if i do this as this way it will be kinda local... I sent triemche a pm so maybe i will just buy his alpines but heres another question to bother you guys with lol... would i be better of going with two single 12'' box as they are cheaper or just going with one dual ported 12'' box... cuz he only has the subs not the encloser as well... lol i would just go all out and buy all new shit but am only 17 and cant just rake in money. but i don't want some piece of shit system i guess... only reason i was thinking of two single boxes is cuz i can get um for like 50 bucks cheeper so that more money for an amp i think
-
being 17 you probably wont be able to tell the difference betweet the boxes, so buy whatever is the cheapest.

hey about how big of an amp am i going to be looking at two run two 12" alpine type R's i will have about 200 to blow on an amp... used or new so just throw out ideas i guess. i was looking at a BXi 1608D and wiring it up at 2 ohms only because they are cheep but still produce a lot of power so just tell me what you guys think cuz i don't feel like screwing up and getting some shitting ass thing and wasting all my money that's why am asking all the newbie questions
-
John, they may be kicker dealers, but they won't be after this coming weekend when I show that to Wally @ kickers booth.
I have some specials that I'll be able to talk about more next week after I get back from ces.

Oh and John/Jon, however you spell your name.... Look at their Ebay store. You'll clearly see they are cut-throating prices. They will not be in buisiness very long with Kicker product I can tell you that.
This auction proves it too. http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/KICKER-08-ZX750-1-750W-CLASS-D-AMP-MONOBLOCK-AMPLIFIER_W0QQcmdZViewItemQQ_trksidZp1713Q2em153Q2el1262QQcategoryZ38638QQihZ027QQitemZ400020655132
And that price is below dealer cost. Sounds fishy to me.
