Iam looking towards buying a system for my 3 hatch, What i need is a Sub min 500 W RMS,deck, and amp + install. does anyone know any good places where i can get this done for a decent price, i was looking at best buy , but i dont really trust there install people, also was looking at number 1 sound on college . any ideas? what kind of sub i should be putting?, i dont want just a loud system like typical rice systems on civics, something with good clear loud bass with minimum noise.

thx

If you don't just want a typical loud system then you should add some front speakers to the mix. Running 500W RMS to a sub is going to be LOUD, and there's no way the front speakers are going to match that even if running off an aftermarket deck. They're rated at 25W MAX. Plus, subs are usually louder in a hatch than a sedan so a high powered sub is going to rattle your brains.

If you want good clear bass the install is also crucial - a nice sealed box will work wonders. Look to one of the forums' audio sponsors, they'll be able to help you out with a good system and installation that will suit your needs.
