Recommend me a sub and amp?

[dorkiedoode]

So what can you guys recommend? I'm not really an audio freak (stock sounds good to me lol) so i don't want to spend too much. been looking at the 12" idq subs or maybe just a cheap type s/r. Having problems looking for an amp under 200 though.. maybe 4 channel(if i get front speakers) or 2 @ 4ohm. an amp with a small footprint too or smallest out of the one in my range of $$ would be best. sorry i'm new to audio and i only know a little bit about it.

I listen to rap, pop, rock, taylor swift?
might put in a sealed box or port it if its not too expensive.
total price? under 400 is cool.
yes i know that i won't be able to get something that sounds amazing with my budget.. its okay whatever is best.

thanks a lot. i've been reading at audio forums and they can be real dicks to new people lol

It's probably gonna be pretty hard to do it under 400 total.
Subs aren't to bad but it the amp(s) that are the hardest part.

I put my system together for orginaly $1,500+ then I had to replace the one 5channel amp I had, with two, a 4channel and a mono.

I got most of my sh8t from this place, http://www.crutchfield.com/S-pkjCqW57XgT/
Maybe it can help you look around more, see if you can find something you like.

thanks for your recommendation. i been researching on those subs ever since! came up a few that people place them in the same range. dayton HO/DIYMA re, etc. i'll be sure to look around more before anything.

definitely agree! amp at such a low price is difficult to find...

helloooo craigslist=) lol. nah for real ive bought everything thats in my system except for my recent purchase of components that i got new. but for 400 you can get a lot.

btw im running an idmax. great woofer. im sure the idq would be a great choice as well.=)

as far as buying off craigs it really depends on where you are cause some areas are really dry with parts cause it could be a small place. im from sacramento ca so theres tons of great used things.

good luck bro.

if you have any questions that are specific i hope i can help=)

as far as crutchfield you really paying for the customer service cause their products are SUPER over priced.
