Finally got the money

Well I've finally got enough money saved up where I can get me a system.. I know I was gonna build me a box and get the Kicker CVR 10's, but I don't wanna go through all that stuff and building a seat lift and what not, so I'm just gonna get a bandpass box and sit in the seat.. Well, I've found this deal on eBay with 2 Audiobahn subs, a SandStorm 1600w amp (never heard of 'em so I'm sure it's an off brand amp) amp wiring kit, bandpass box and 2 Blue neons.. Well it's buy it now for $248, and I know most of you guys on here arn't fond of Audiobahn, but I'm pretty much on a budget here, and I can afford this and it's the 1st system I've bought and for sure I just want something better than it is now.. Maybe down the road later I could get a better system, so for the last question about systems I'll ask, would it be a good setup for a noob? 'cause I can't afford all the high end stuff right now.. I like this setup too and it's what I'm looking at now.. So anyways, thanks again..

To be honest I don't think it's a bad setup, even 1 of my friends who knows abunch about sound systems said it's not a bad setup.. I can't afford all the high end stuff like alot of people on here can, 'cause I don't get paid much and I have other things to spend money on.. So I think I'm gonna wind up buying it..
Thanks for the help..

Yea, I probably will enjoy it.. I can't get the top of the line crap like you can because I don't get paid much and can't afford $500+ for a good system like most of the people on here probably did.... Plus like I said, I also have other things to spend my money on.. So I can't dump everything into my truck.. This well get me buy until I can afford something better later on down the road..
I've heard enough and made my mind up.. so yea, end of discussion

You'll be sorry! And buying from eBay? No warranty?

Best of luck.

idk man, I doubt I will.. 'cause it's not like I have to have the top of the line brand and the hardest hitting stuff.. IMO that's pretty much what everyone's saying to get and I can't afford it right now.. Like I said, my friend who's big into audio and knows alot about it said it's not a bad setup.. He even has 2 RF amps and 2 RF 10's, and I know people on here put down RF too.. He has the amps hooked up to 2 15's and they're offbrand subs and it hits great.. So idk.. I'm sure I wont have a prob with it..
Lemme ask ya'll this, what's so bad about Audiobahn or this setup??

Well for one there's nothing wrong with Alpine, Audiobahn isn't bad either, Soundstorm I heard is pretty good too.. And if JL Audio is bad, why does the guys on Unique Whips put them in just about every car they customize? JMO on that..
I'll let ya'll know what I think of it when it comes in..
Thanks...

Id never run Soundstorm or Audiobahn.

Alpine HU's dont bother me at all...

The only way I would run JL is if it was given to me; why pay a billion bucks for something JL when you can get something just as good for half the price.
Only JL I would want to run would be some 12w6v2s anywho.

audiobahn sucks donkey ***** and should only be used if your black
soundstream rocks about as hard as pyle, legacy, lanzar, and boss

Just remember this - you get what you pay for.

Save your money and get a good system - you will be happy and you own't have to do it twice! But it's your money, so do what you want. You wanted opinions, so take them to heart.

Yea I know man, it's just everyone's saying to get the most expensive stuff, and where I work and how much I get paid I can't do it.. I was reading a topic about systems and stuff on here, and I saw where Bartak1 paid $1085 for his system.. You know how long that would take me to get that much saved up? lol.. That's why I can't get the best stuff out there right now.. And IMHO, I don't see anything wrong with Audiobahn.. Just me though
