Anyone have one? Looked at MTX, Bazooka, and the little Kenwood.
Not looking for some heart stopping sound.. just something good for normal listening and a little louder. Any opinions?

Also working on a budget here...
No No No No No No No No No
IMO they make great boat anchors, wouldn't use one for anything else though. Find a 200 watt amp, a single 10 or 12 box and a Rockford fosqate p1(or equivalent) sub. You would be far more satisfied.
Ive got a little amp for sale. Just fyi....lol
I aint too knowledgeable about sound systems. how much trouble will it be to hook up a sub on stock head unit?
Youll need a line level converter. It hooks to your rear speakers and then you hook your rcas to it. very easy.
If you don't know much about audio then you should let a pro install it. I have seen many upon many radios/vehicles screwed up because some weekend warrior thought they could install. Just a recommendation from an ex-professional.
So you don't have to hook the seperate wiring harness to the 'headunit'?Quote:

I personally think it's better to wire at the headunit. If you ever decide to ditch the factory junk the rcas are there already. The dash also has plenty of room to hide the conerter. But that's just me.
heck i didn't even know that hooking to the rear speakers was possible. haha
I agree. Ive seen alot of installs that theyve put the converter in the back of the car.Quote:

The signal is strongest at the radio, it is easy to hook the RCA's up if you get an aftermarket headunit, and it is a cleaner way to do it. If the vehicle has a sub from the factory though I would wire it in to the sub output wires.Quote:
