Is this worth it?

Re: Is this worth it?

doing a quick google search on the individual pieces, its an ok deal. crutchfield shows the subs for about $60/ea, amp for around $150, wiring kit's adequate for one amp (too small for anything more), and the box seems to be ok (although they don't say how thick the mdf is, hopefully 3/4" or thicker). free shipping is really kinda what saves it; shipping big stuff adds up.

could you do better if you had the tools and time? I think so. but sometimes its hard to beat getting everything in one shot

Re: Is this worth it?

Go to halfpricecaraudio.com and look for all of these individually, you'll probably save yourself $75-$150 I have the same setup in my daily driver, the amp ran me $100 and the subs were $45 a piece and the sub box was $40 and they sell a $20 4gauge wiring kit that works perfect too. That's not a bad price though for everything all put together.
