Here's my list and what I paid for it.

Kenwood KDC headunit-$160
2 Rockford Fosgate 12 in p3s-$180 ea.
Rockford Fosgate 1000.1 amp-$200
Hertz ESK door speakers, tweeters and crossovers-$200
Rockford Fosgate bass control knob-$20
Ported box-$100

I got roughly $860 invested into this system, I added up what everything out cost if I bought everything at msrp and it would be about $1900. Post any awesome deals you've gotten on your systems and tell us what you got! Thanks

Over $10k if you include all the wiring and Dynamat. And I did ALL of the labor myself, or you could easily add another $2-3k. It's definitely my main hobby. I've probably got $3k in the F250 and I put over $2k in the old lady's ride.
 






Holy crap guys lol, I'm just getting into systems and I thought mine was badass.
 












$0 came with an Alpine and i-pod connect when I bought it
 






$17,000 total in my factory premium system. But it came with a free Explorer wrapped around it.
 






I've only dropped $2,500 so far on the subs and amp with a box with a little dynomat to deaden some of the sound :p
 






I've had The Phoenix Gold amp since 2001. It cost $650.The JL Audio 500/1 came in the truck. I paid &160 for my mid bass. I had the tweeters forgot how much they cost. My sub was $225. Plus $375 for my Alpine 9887.
Amps $650
Front speakers $160
Sub $225
Hu $375
Sub Box $60
Wiring $75
Sound deadening $100
Total $1645
My system has folks wanting me to build one for them. Its loud for a 1 sub system & its very clean & accurate. I did all the install & built my ported box. I'm very happy with my little system. It sounds better than systems I owned that cost almost twice as much.

this is all in canadian money and the subs and components were bought from the us, everything else local in canada
 






13 years ago when my system was state of the art im guessing it went for about 800. my kenwood must be worth about 150-200 USD, an MTX crossover of say 150 and the sub MSRP back in 98 was 500 USD. everything still works and it came included with my car when i bougth it. I have no idea how good the AMP is. it makes good sound but the company is unheard of. "LA sound" only seen one other for sale on EBAY
 






batteries alone 1000
alt 500
wiring 250min
subs 2 18 AQ's 750
2 AQ3500.1s 1500
mid/high amp 200
mids/highs 200

Interesting.....


Hu- Eclipse CD 8454 - $100 of CL

Amps _ Usacoustics Zed built. Usa-2100 on the tweets $100 Usa 4050 bridged on the mids - $20 Usa - 2150 on the sub - $100

Tweets......Alpine ring domes $50

Mids - Image Dynamics oem.....$100

Sub....SSA Icon 10 ....$125


About $250 worth of deadening.....Dyn extreme and a spray that I can't recall..

That comes up to $845 invested in a 2 way active sq based system that will guaranteed blow away almost any system with double the money invested.
