Now I hope I don't get ripped for driving this beautiful car but wanting a cheap audio setup. I just want a tiny bit more than what the stock system offers.

I'm not a DIY guy as far as audio components in the car go, and I don't know much about speakers. Could anyone recommend a relatively cheap setup for me? When I say cheap, I'd say around $300. I'm not even sure where I'd get this done. I have tuner friends, but none are audiophiles.

I'd really like a little more highs & bass. I don't want the bass to drown out everything else unless I crank up the base in the audio settings. If anyone can suggest anything, I'd appreciate it. Would this be a difficult task? If anyone is in the New Jersey area, where would you suggest going for an install of such a system?

Thanks fellas.

 

For $300 get the Basslink. It's a great value for the money. It really makes a big difference with the stock system.

What does a basslink do?

Add an amp and a sub

 

basslink is basically an amp/sub/enclosure built into one. Small, nice sound. Good for people that don't need really loud bass. Wasn't enough for me personally, but I could definately see it being more than enough for most people.

I think circuit city sells it... listen to it before purchasing.

Yeah, Basslink is a good call. I got mine for under $300 installed. As far as the high, I think you can change out the resistor on the stock tweeter to get more sound out of it. There is a DIY on the site somewhere.

If cheap is what you want and warranty isnt, then I'd get your stuff on EBAY and hook it up with a sub/amp combo. I think that'll be the sound you want as far as bass, and the bass will fill in some of the other sounds.

Quick question on the basslink... where did you mount yours when you had it in the car?
