looking to sort my ICE out (at last) but wondering what to do, i fancy 3 12" subs, 2 amps, a pair of 6x9"s and compnents, new head unit, and a pair of Sparco seats and harnesses (not ICE related, i know!) but i'm stuck, firstly for what to buy, and secondly for where to get it installed in the northants area

i want something similar to pete at PVD's corsa (C3)

any help or advice would be wicked

dont bother with the 6x9s, and 3 12s in the back of a corsa might be a bit too much. 3 10s or 2 12s would be my choice (depending on what music you listen to). What sort of budget do you have too?

dude i wouldnt say money isnt an object, because you could run into the 1000's and 1000's of quids so i would set a budget firstly before you start doing anything Then work from that

audiobahn subs look good but arent the best around. Their amps however are http://www.thezeb.com/ is a really good site for cheap ICE from the states, but they dont ship to the UK so you will need to find a friend in america to send it this way, which is what i did.

Agree with most comments there mate. 6x9's are a waste of time!
Personal choice 2x12's with a good set of components up front, you'll only need rear speakers if your planning on having the boot open a lot. No rear speakers and you'll get a clearer crisper sound. Think about it, your ears face forwards. 12" subs these days will handle all types of music, money no object go for something like Diamond, or competition subs ie. Alpine's typre 'R' or 'X'.
