whether its worth it or not is up to you. $500 isnt a whole lot to go off of for a whole system, they can get spendy. Make sure you get a good box for the subs, that can make or wreck the whole system.

listen, spend the money elsewhere. Subs are kinda a phase everyone goes through. My friend aaron got 2 10's used them for the week after they got installed and now he hates that they are taking his trunk space. so just make sure you think it through

my truck when i bought it came with two 250 watt amps and a couple other very minor add ons...  i replaced the deck for 90 (bought used JVC Kameleon from a friend) and went to Circuit City (when they were in business) to get an Open Box sale of Dual 12" MTX Terminator Subs for about $200.....  i dont think you will be able to get everything you need all at once.
