Car audio

Okay so I'm really into the deep thumping bass that people have in their cars and I'm interested in getting a subwoofer system and then getting tweeters later on once I can afford those as well. As far as I know I'm gonna need to replace the speakers, replace the stereo and put in an aftermarket stereo, I'll need a sub and an enclosure, I'm thinking a 12", an amplifier, and an equalizer. The only thing I need to know is how much money am I looking at to get all of this and have a decent setup?

250$, then up if you already have a decent head unit. anything under 250 isnt really worth it unless you go used, which is always sketchy. assuming US

Mach sound system in my mustang is awesome! Before my mustang I had a Chevy, I put four: Kenwood KFC-P709PS (One in each door) and two Kenwood sub-woofers (don't remember the model, they were around $140 each). Sounded great!

If you really want a decent setup using brand new components, you'll be putting at least $400-500 into it. I've spent about $500 CAD so far on my car audio setup, and there's still some more it could use.

My friend put a really nice system in his crown vic consisting on two 12 inch subs, four new speakers, and a wicked powerful amp. Together with the wiring kit and the box for the subs it was running him about $350. I'll tell you though, it's sick. Whenever he turns on his car I can feel it in my lungs and I live about a quarter mile away.

what kind of brands did he shop to get it all at that kind of price, do you know?

I know that the subs and the head unit were both made by Pioneer, as for the amp originally he had a 1500w Boss, but he has since upgraded that. Not quite sure about the speakers though, sorry. I do know that he bought the subs and head unit together around Black Friday though, the subs were originally around $100 and he got them for about $40, a really good steal if you ask me.

I am a car audio installer and any aftermarket headunit will have advanced eq go with something by pioneer it will be inexpensive and will be a good head unit for amp, sub, tweeters, and door speakers go with alpine or pioneer altogether you will probably spend about 700-1000 dollars.
