First off I want to say that I work at Circuit City as a mobile installer. I get a GREAT accomadation discount on all the high end stuff that we dont even sell. So this is what it is. I am torn on which way to go. I want to just be satisfied with what I buy for once. I go through alot of systems, I just want one that I will keep.lol

I will be installing all of this into a 4th gen Camaro z28. I am still debating on the location of the install tho, either in the hatch or the rear seat(No room for passangers anyway).

*****Kicker*****

Amp: SX 1250.1 (2) SX 700x4(175x4)(1)

Sub: L7(2) or CVX(2)

Speakers: SS 6.5 component sets(2)(Doors) or RS 6.5 Component sets(2)(doors)

The total for the kicker system will be $XXXX with my discount

----Please note that I dont want 2 L7s and 2 cvx together, its either or, Same with the ss and rs components, Just 2 sets of either or, thanks-----

.......................................................................................................................................................

*****POLK MOMO*****

Amp: Momo c 500.1 (2)--Momo c 400.4 (1)

Sub:Momo  mm2124 DVC (2)

Speakers: MOMO mmc6500 6.5 component sets

The total for the POLK MOMO system will be $XXXX with my discount

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Most of the installs with be custom fiberglass job, so i can use to sets of components in each door and the subs will be fiberglassed with in the hatch or the back seat. thanks

PLEASE DONT tell me to get somthing other then ive named, this is it

thanks alot :)

Normal customers cant get the stuff I can get through Circuit city, My store only carries up to the KS series. I can get ANYTHING that Kicker or Polk have. Thats why I choose the top of the line stuff.

My vote is this. If you work in this industry, respect it. The general public do not need to know what you buy your product from your employer for. An accommodation is just that. Want to see it gone, imagine if your manager saw your post.

Agreed, this is not the place to post your discounted pricing, it IS the Internet after all.  And by the way, I don't consider Kicker nor Polk to be "high end."  Decent stuff to be sure, but not high end.  Buy whichever system you like the most.

Why is it a big deal, I posted the total price so that people could see the price difference in the system. Not to show that I can get a big discount on stuff. Why post if ur not gonna be help full?

Ok my bad. I didnt mean it to be a negative thing, I just wanted people to compare with the prices as well.

Also I didnt mean HIGH END but I can get the Highest end of the kicker or polk line,  Solo X, SS, ETC...

What is high end in ur eyes then?

well if you want SQ i was told CVX are better in SQ compared to L7s  i dont know why but people say L series is just some cheap SPL ,  and cvx hit deeper while l7s hit harder ,  i have l5s i love 'em but i wish i'd  knew what is cosider "sq"  lol




Posted By: spyderlox

SQ in my eyes is a sub that will hit hard and low but will still hit whatever is in between and doesnt distort. I want somthing loud when I want it to be loud but doesnt drain out the music

yeah i feel you man its like their some people that put some subs and you cant hear the music you just hear bassin and their like see its insane!!!! while i think in my head but this isnt the right stuff , when a sub should hit on rap /hip hop song like bumpp bupmp bump rather the rattleing...........   a combo of both is sometimes great but i think the best thing to do is compare the most wanted subs and see how they sound for me i think i would stick to kicker , i loved the COMPS 12's that my cuzen has but i want louder so im guessing that cleaness with the loudness of L5/L7/  well CVX would be it . remmeber the trick is how the box is built but man you know this since u work @ CC

personally I would put polk  in the front and kicker in the back. IMO that would sound pretty good
