hey guys just got a new car lastnight.. a 2005 pontiac g6 gt.. with 37,000 miles.. nice and minty fresh too.. paid 8000 for it..

i need opinions on what to put in here...nothing crazy and stupid like 6 12s and the such..
keep it simple right around 1500 to 2k rms and 8" sub to 12" subs..any suggestions??
ALSO i have a db electrical 250 amp alternator on order..AND 100ft of monster brand 0 gauge..and im going to use my current batteries now (3 shuriken bt100s)

and if any1 out there can inform me about how much of a pain the ONSTAR and crap will be to bypass it:angry5: and the steering wheel controls
anyways on to the pics :thumbsup:

im more less a sound quailty guy.. ilike everything to sound clear as can be,..and evend out.. no bass killing the mids n highs..
i play nothing over 35 hertz also.. so its gotta like low tuning and sound good..

from what i get right now..i got room for 5 cubes at most

I vote 6 sundown sa-8's in a 4 cubic ft box tuned to 32 hz with 2 4" aeros. That would get down and save space. Then for the amp get something like a soundstream dtr1.2200d or a powerbass asa1500.1dx (the powerbass is severely underrated does 2k+ at 1 ohm and 2.5k at 0.5 ohm). Then as for comps go crescendo.

^^ thats 1 of the better options ive herd.. 6 sa 8s would get pricy tho

i'm gonna say do some 10's like thor used to have in his GP. maybe 2 sa-10's off a saz 2k or saz 1500, or 2 level 4 10's off a dc 2k or somethin

keep it stock?

if its a must to do something
upgrade the speakers and leave it at that.

by-passing the on-star isnt a big deal but the part isnt all that cheap. the h/u in some of those also controls a lot more than just the stereo.
