Getting Subs/Amps/Door Speakers

Hi all,

First post here. I went to the local car audio shop and they put together a package for me. Would love to hear your thoughts.

Two Rockford P3 12" + Rockford R1200-1D Amp

2 Pair of Focal Access 165CA1 + Rockford R400-4 Amp

I'm pretty excited to get this done, just need to find a weekday off to take it there. It's about $1600 installed. Not a bad price, IMO.


Thoughts? The only thing I am really concerned about is the power the system will drain from my electrical system.

Thanks,
G

Florida. Did you get door speakers as well? The 1600 includes everything installed. How do you like the P3?
