depends could u extent your budget at all??

everything someone in halfords tells you is bull! but they are just ment to be selling the products they have so some of them dont really care what your wanting and are jut quite happy to tell you lies aslong as you buy it!

its alot for 120 but isnt the best! if your friends have the same and it sounds good then up to you but if you xtent your budget and buy everythin piece by piece then you could end up wth a better system

well depends how far you stretch or wither you realli need it the now and can save for a while!?

I started off with a low budget and wanted the world but ended up just savin up for a decet headunit then deciding that i would put components in and then the sub! i am glad i done it like tht because I am running all class d pioneer stuff! ebay is the place to be because i got all my pioneer stuff imported from america and got it at less than half the price!

JBL are prob the best for a budget sound system if you arnt willing to stretch by a bit

tbh mate mutant stuff aint too bad.... i gotta mutant install and it sounds alright...... for the price you got up there i'd take it as you got everything you'd need as a startin platform and you wont find much cheeaper than that either.

you would be best off getting a headunit, then get an amp and components and finish of with a sub and box mate

you can get good bass from components :)

I have that mutant pack. i got mine for £69 from low cost car audio. Just make sure the head unit has a subwoofer controls. I got an alpine head unit and a better wiring kit and it turned out to be a good job for the price i paid. :y:

As said mate id go for the HU first and then get some components up front which will sound good up front with quite a lot of bass just by themselves before adding a sealed-boxed sub in the rear and amp for that :)

i bought a mutant 800W sub and mutant 2 channel amp with full wiring kit for£99 from halfords may not be the best out there but for me its a start and the sound quality is pretty good tbh
