Yeah I'll probably go down tomorrow check it out, they have a set up with Subs,amps,speakers etc see what they suggest / deals etc.

Just another quick Q.

If given the question: Why spend so much money on a sound system what would your answer be.

Why spend so much on a sound system?

As i spend alot of time in my car and i love quality sound, not $5 speakers running off a tape deck ;)

Just dont buy unknown brands from JB, stick with the well-known ones (Kenwood, Pioneer, Alpine etc).

i bought this amp kit and was very happy with it for the price - 4 GA + 8 GA PROFESSIONAL AMP WIRING KIT (RRP $149.00) - eBay Accessories, Cables, Audio, Video, Car Parts, Accessories, Cars, Bikes, Boats. (end time 13-Oct-08 18:46:26 AEST)

but i agree with all the people saying go to jaycar. theyre amps are really good value, their splits are good and on par with splits double the price, and i have their venom sub and it goes quite nicely. definately the place to look for a good sounding system on a budget
