On that sort of budget jaycar is a good option. I spent roughly that amount on mine and it came up sweet

4 * 100W RMS amp 300 (this is a good value amp)
6.5inch Response splits 150

I would get a head unit and sub from somewhere like JB Hi-fi as well as a wiring kit (I didn't like the fuses from jaycar)

Good Luck

The JB HIFI nere me is actually doing free wiring atm so bit more incentive for me to get em.

I been browsing the forums so I'm getting a pretty general idea on the way ima go.

Money issue so have to postpone =/

gotta hate that lol

For $350 you could get a 500wrms Jaycar amp (AA-0424) and a Venom 12" subwoofer (CS-2358). Unless the JVC combo has an amp thats over 300wrms and the sub is 12" i would go that way for that sort of money.

Anyways yeah when you get the dough and then get prices get back to us, that free wiring special at JB sounds good to me, must be a catch tho....like you wouldnt get a free wiring kit with a $80 el cheapo amp i dont think...lol.

Yeah that one seems good, but i would go into JB and have a bit of a play with it (if they'll let you) just to see if the controls / feel of it suits you.
