How much would a 1500 watt stereo for my car cost?
For four [almost five] years now I have wanted a 1500 watt stereo in my car. I have a job now, so I can finally start saving for one. How much would it cost to have somebody install it for me?
Thank you in advance; all answers are very much appreciated.
Thank you for the answers so far! I don't know much about stereos, so I'm sorry for the lack of information. I would be looking for something in the price range of $500-$600. What could you get with that amount of money?
Thank you!
I spent about a thousand on my current stereo. Some of the components were on discount and some I paid full-price.
In car audio, you get what you pay for. If you buy a crappy Boss stereo instead of an Alpine or Pioneer stereo, you'll probably be sending the Boss stereo in for warranty issues.
Brands that are good for the following categories are:
Amp: Top 5: Rockford Fosgate, Hifonics, Alpine, Kicker, Infinity.
Honorable Mentions: Kicker, Polk Audio, Boston Acoustics, Pioneer.
Speaker: Top 5: Focal, Rockford Fosgate, Kicker, Infinity, Alpine.
Honorable Mentions: Boston Acoustics, Kenwood, Hifonics, Polk Audio, JL.
Subwoofer: Top 5: Fi, Alpine, Kicker, Rockford Fosgate, Pioneer Premier.
Honorable Mentions: Hifonics, Infinity, Kenwood, Pioneer (Basic Pioneer).
OEM Processors: Rockford Fosgate 360.2 Processor
On a Budget: Hifonics Processors.
Wire: Kicker and Rockford Fosgate.
Also, stick with name brand companies that follow the AWG system.
Head Unit: Alpine, Pioneer, Kenwood.
The only place I recommend to buy any of these products are Crutchfield.com and the actual company's homepage that makes the products so you can get your warranty with the product.
When you upgrade anything in your system, it's best to upgrade everything, because every component will compliment each other to make the best sounding system.
--------------------------------------…
A rule of thumb when designing a custom system is that when you add (a) subwoofer(s) you need to follow the following formula when going for SQ (Sound Quality) instead of SPL (Sound Pressure Level): Total RMS (Root Mean Squared OR Constant Wattage) of all speakers should be double to figure the RMS that the subs should be. i.e. If you have a 4-speaker system that has 50w RMS per speaker, then you'd 50 x 4 giving you 200. Then take 200 x 2 which gives you 400. That means that your system should have a subwoofer(s) with 400w RMS.
If you need any help just e-mail or post additional info to your question as I will be checking on this thread later.
You can do all this on your own. I can give you links to diagrams that I've made to help you install your system and if you order from Crutchfield.com (which I highly recommend) they'll send you a Master Sheet with everything on it.
If you go to Crutchfield.com you can click on "Outfit My Car" and enter your car's info, then Crutchfield will show you all the products that will fit/work with your car.
Good luck!
