lemme count...

Aiwa headunit 250
Pyrmaid subs 20 dollars
legacy amp 20 dollars
install 75
got good deal from a friend on some of my stuff
Audiobahn 15s 100 dollars (stock 250 each)
Boss Amplifier 150 dollars
new spekers around 50 for 2
(edit) I forgot about Box costs 180 for all the supplies etc.

wish list
Audiobahn amp 590 dollars
audiobahn comps 50 each 75 custom install
audiobahn 2 ways 50 each
audiobahn set of tweeters or more comps, same as above

I screwed up on audio the first time through, but I am liking my audiobahn equipment I have now. Blew out all stock speakers and I need new speakers to replace some aftermarket speakers

.

no, you're probably thinking about the military installations overseas. you're allowed to have them but it cant be heard 50 feet from your vehicle. offbase is a different story. there's hardly any cops only on highways and big roads and stuff, but even then, they could care less. i allow my older sister to drive offbase in my car (cause i'm only 17 and the legal age to drive offbase is 18) and 1 time we pulled behind a japanese cop car with the two 15"s bumping and all the cops did was turn around and smiled.
