a guy that likes rap/hip hop? i want to get with the spare tire setup but waiting on Wicked CAS intro price for their box. I would like a JL audio 13" sub and a good amp. ive been looking at the In-Dash and i like the pioneer avic-x910bt...please chime in and share your ideas:tiphat:

amplifier
 

JL Audio 1000/1 v2 JL Audio Slash v2 Series 1000/1v2 Mono subwoofer amplifier 1,000 watts RMS x 1 at 2 ohms at Crutchfield Signature

^^ I agree…Can’t wait for the JL bashers to come out!

damn just for amp? ouch!!

My thoughts
 

Speakers... JL or Polk
Amp... JL, or Polk, or Kenwood
Deck...Kenwood all the way

Thing about Kenwood. I've never had one fail me. Always lasted longer than me love relationship with the car.

Dont't forget Ebay
 

Example
Polk component 6.5" speakers SR6500
Retail 799.95
Ebay... new in box 399.00 free shipping, no tax

the rest of system :)
 

ALPINE IVA-W505R with ALPINE Processor PXA-H100
speakers...the winners of CES 2010 :

and ampli 4 channels Boston Acoustics GT-4100 Boston Acoustics GT-4100 4-channel car amplifier — 100 watts RMS x 4 at Crutchfield Signature
Now, it's all about your budget... i hope it's useful 4 you

I hate to be the “Bearer of Bad News”, but….Alpine was not a winner of CES 2010.....

^^ FYI……Alpine was mentioned in the “People’s Voice nominees”…..the single din iDA-X305S. The double din winner was the Pioneer AVIC-X920BT multimedia and navigation receiver.

^^ as for the DLS Ultimate Nobelium 6.2 Component System…….must be the winner of “themselves awards”! Not CES 2010….

Yes JL is very expensive for something you can get cheaper form another company. Look at alpines pdx line of amps they to have a 1000 watt amp. I would alos recommend that you get a 2 channel amp as well for your front speakers to allow them to keep up with your new sub. Polk makes well built speakers like the mm series for a good price. For subs look at the alpine type r's.

Your point?

I was responding to Florin_78fr…..mentioning CES 2010 winners and Alpine in the same post!! Alpine has a great single din stereo if you want a single din stereo! This is 2010, I honestly can’t remember the last time I bought a single din stereo!! Is that what you have in your Honda Civic? I’m sure it sounds ok!!

^^ the JL bashers are out...

^have u heard them in person?

^^ only from the protection of the internet….actually only from the protection of this forum!

apologies
 

my mistake...it was EISA Awards, not CES and i was talking about the DLS not the Alpine. About ALPINE IVA-W505R, it's a 2DIN, a very good one, specially with the IMPUT AUDIO PROCESSOR PXA-H100.

Now, i need an advise from BIGAUDIO or another specialist ;) witch is best for an audiophiles system...JL Audio HD Series HD750/1 or JL Audio 1000/1 v2 for the JL Audio 12W7-3 12"? and in 4 channels between Boston Acoustics GT-4100 and JL Audio HD Series HD600/4?

All (goods) opinions are welcome :)

EISA is interesting….I actually own some of the “home theater panel award” selections!

Alpine IVA-W505R doesn’t have built-in GPS. It has a dedicated dock for control of the Blackbird II PMD-B200 navigator that’s not included …… Old school. Its 2010…..Buy a Kenwood or Pioneer, so much better!
