    You could have gotten a much better setup for that price. I wouldn't have paid 150 for both of those subs. I wouldn't say that you got completely ripped though.

    btw I spent less than a grand on my setup which consists of:

    Two 12" Infinity Kappa Perfects
    JBL 600.1 amp
    JBL 80.4
    Two sets of Infinity Reference components
    Audiobahn amp kit - 4 gauge
    Custom box

      sorry to tell you bro but you got hulled, ripped off

      325 for cusom box &lt;-- i got my box for less than this and its 3/4'' mdf and it has an amp rack for the amps and the cap its also ported and mirrored

      150 cap &lt;--waste of money, for this much i would of went with an optima battery

      100 amp kit 4 gauge&lt;--with a little over 100 i could get two 0 gauge wiring kits with RCA's and all.

        The prices only add up to 1300.

        Congrats on getting a system though.

              yea, u def cood of gotten a much better deal on that stuff. i paid less than $650 for my system and got....

              -12" 2004 model kicker solo baric L7...$250
              -1600 watt kenwood eXcelon amp...$250
              -1 farad capacitor...$50
              -4 gauge amp kit with all accessories...$20
              -12" solo baric box...$55
              -installation...did it myself with a friend

              the MSRP on the sub is $400 and the amp is a 2003 model but when it first came out it was a $750 amp. I think i got a pretty good deal if i do say so myself.

              you def could of done the intallation yourself, i did it with no prior knowledge of what to do. i just did my research on wiring and hooked her up, it was frustrating, but def worth saving 150 bones.

                MTX 5500 12 sub - $89 each

                Cap can be had for about $70.

                4 ga amp kit = less than $50

                Warranty = Nothing....only covers manufacturers defect (most have 2 year anyway), not blowing out of speakers by over powering them.

                Custom box from anyone of a few places posted about on here about $200-250

                Getting overcharged by Cartoys....PRICELESS

                  haha i agree, the prices you listed were even a little generous, you can find the wiring and the cap for cheaper than that.
