everything's to your hear man... we can't tell you when you like. As for help with a setup? you're going to have to be more specific.... what you're looking for... how much you're willing to spend, things like that... general questions aer very hard to answer. We'll do the best we can to help you out, we just need some more information.

i've never had any experience with them...decent brands list as: Kicker, Rockford Fos, Infinity, Alpines, Xtant, Eclipse and such. they will run a bit of money... especially with only 500Canadian... i got my alpine 10's for 105 each... and i'm looking at an amp for 180. this is all US

White Rock huh? Where do you work and what brands do you get deals on? It's so hard to find good **** around here that it's not even funny. I buy most of my stuff off of Ebay and bring it across the border. If you could hook up some deals, I may be interested....

And $500 Can is worth about $335 US give or take. "Woohoo"

I was going to install a decent Alpine deck in a beater I just picked up but had a change of heart. I've still got the receipt and it's got another month and a half on the warranty at A&B Sound. It was purchased for $249Can before tax, but at this point I'd let it go for $200 if you were interested. It's the CDE-7859 model. Basic, but Alpine's basic stuff is one helluva lot better than most of the stuff out there.
