best buy, tweeter, and most automotive stores will have what you are looking for. But its tough to get them sounding good in a 7.

On the contrary, I had a single 12" pioneer in my 7 that sounded AWSOME and could make your ears ring with only 300 watts of power. I got many compliments from this sub.

Don't forget 18's.

I've only seen a setup with an 18 once. One 18" sub powered by a JL 2000/1 amp, and 2 JL 10's with another 1000/1 amp.

It hurt being even outside of the vehicle.

I saw a 32 inch sub in the back of a crx a couple years back at the Nopi Nationals. I think it was made by Audiobaun. **** was crazy and completly useless.

tweeter = high frequency, and I beg to differ about audiobahn... Im not a audiobahn fan, there stuff is overdressed and doesn't perform as well as it should for the money it costs. If you want a really good sounding setup I recommend getting a specialty brand sub, most of the name brand ones can't compare (theres exceptions of course but you pay more)...

Car audio is really a personal preference thing, depends how you like your bass and what kind of music you listen to etc etc... My recommendation is to shop around at local shops listening to different setups and see what you like and can afford. Good luck.

Me too, too bad I gave that up before most of the newbies were out of diapers. At first Openshot's post irritated me, now they they are just entertaining. Thanks for the chuckle.

I apparently have been out of the loop awhile.... I was unaware we had 'speekers' and 'supwoofers' for our cars.... turn bass on and see speekers move? too 'tech' for me to touch........

I think we need to take open shot under are wings and teach this kid. I little lesson about owning a car. He is still caught up in that high school drama, I liky the blingy blingy, my car goes boom boom. Where they watch F & F everyday saying thats what my cars gonna look like.

It is his first car. Everybody goes through this. Some are just not as open about it. I know I was all about it when I got my first car, but then I learned and got smarter!


Ps If I could get some of that "stuff" you know for Hurricane relief reasons!

i know i have to fix my car but first i need to get my motor running so after that i need to get rid of the rust and get some new parts i need so after that i can start costom every thing i am going to fix. so i am looking for the costom parts like the subs. rims and some othere stuff. so i will know how much they will all cost. i want it to be nice to make it look diffent than other cars not like the hondas. i love my car so i can show it off to my friends and my teacher that say rx7s are a wast of time and i want to show that they are way beter than pickup trucks than so he can shutup about me selling the rx7 and get a damn pickup truck. so i want to get this car vary nice looking so i can have a nice car that i can drive every day and show it off to people.

Personally, I don't really like sound system in cars, unless it's like a minivan or suv. But not in a sports car for me, especially if it's a track car. That **** belongs in your house, not your car... unless you live in it.

Oops I guess I didn't proofread, thanks for the correction. Yea, what I meant to say was tweeter = high freaquency.
