I don't believe in brand loyalty because it will make you lose alot of money for less quality stuff. I am also into smaller companies. I personally hate most big brand name subwoofers ( bang for your buck ratio is horrible ) but here i go

Subs: Elemental Designs (there are too many, i put this just because the owner is cool and they have good stuff)
Amps: JBL (can't beat the bp1200.1 for bang/buck ratio :) )
Headunits: Don't really care, I like my Pioneer
Mids and Highs: Focal
Wire: honestly, all it is, is wire....i prefer 1/0 welding cable

Amps: JBL BP amps, ARC Audio, Brax, and the old Fury digital amps.

Headunits: Eclipse, Pioneer Premier(P9R Baby, Yeah!), Nakamichi

Mids & Highs: Diamond Audio Hex all the way, Rainbow, Focal

I wish i had all that stuff but all i got is 208watt sony head unit, two six1/2 s in the front, and a ghetto ass jensen 12 which is being pushed by the head unit. It does sound pretty good for only spending 40 bucks hahaha! :D

My new car comes with diamond audio components and some head unit....he said the head unit cost him 300$ I think the exhaust will be too loud though. Longtubes, x pipe, and MAC mufflers :drool:

ok, for good price and all the quality you could want here it is:

subs:Infinity Perfect VQ

Headunit: Anything alpine just about

I would go with crossfire for speakers, good price and sound great.

amp: Interfire

Wiring: probably Stinger although it doesn't matter much.

oh and also...infiity subs with an interfire amp sounds pretty bad. one of my friends has got 2 12" infinity kappas and 2 interfire amps and its one of the best ive ever heard

I've got some stock infinity speakers in my car and they're pretty good. It's some of the clearer stuff I've heard, and kicks a little. I've been searching for some newer stuff and personally think the fosgates are some of the best subs I've heard.

I have talked to a few guys about Rockford and they say that they are overpriced. They have told me that they are a name that used to be decent but now aren't that great! And mainly what you pay for is price. Infinity Perfect VQs are AWESOME! And Brock has said that Diamonds beat tham, so maybe look into Diamonds!

98Jones, ok I did notice they were rather pricey. I will look into diamonds, but after I finish doing stuff to improve the performance of my car.

I've heard good things about Zapco. One of my friends got Zapco stuff to run an L7 in a Golf. It sounded AWESOME!!! Don't they run on some weird output though? Like when it says 600 watts, it is truly 600 watts and something else weird?
