Cost me $250 for the 2 subs with that crappy box that broke. The new box ran me around $60.
But yea, infinity is underrated, everyone i talk to who has infinity subs loves them. I got them on ebay for cheap and they are loud. i have an 1100watt amp powering them.

it should, amps should cost more. you can get very nice subs. but to power them it takes a lot of power. Class D amps are crazy in price. a nice Class D amp can run as LOW as 250-$300, with all the extra gadgets. its crazy.

you should forget about the whole bose idea, even if ou found some that fit 9 times out of 10 theyre not going to work right. Most Bose systems are designed to work together, ie. you would need a bose amp and hu to go with the speakers. If I was you I would just get a good set of components 6x9's and a 4 ch amp. Alpine type R's are good if you dont want to break the bank

uhm.. they must sell speakers for cars? i have seen them in cars before.. an example: they are in my aunt's nissan from factory. But i never listened to them, it always seems like the car is broken down so im never in it.. lmao.

^ but for the cost, bose is crap. sure they sound decent, but are VERY over priced.
years ago when they were the top end for speakers, it went straight to their heads. They are just like every other speaker now, but w/ a "big" name that over inflated the price.
A well setup infinity or soundstream or (i believe) Rainbow speakers will all sound better for cheaper.

I have Alpine Type R in the front and Type X in the rear. The sound quality is incredibly amazing. Unfortnately, with these speakers you will need to make new door pods in the front. It's actually really easy and cheap to make. It just takes a lot of time to make them look good. Here is what I made for the very first time and they turned out ok.

yep, I used 3 inch long wood dowels to build it out and cut some new mounting rings out of 1/2 inch mdf. Just stretched fleece over it and soaked the fleece with fibreglass resin. Let it cure and then add fibreglass as needed to fill out low spots and then just lot of sanding to make it smooth.
