The Best Sound, Cast Your Vote!!!

[okin]

Out of the list, alpine definitely sound the best. However, I've voted other. Vote 1: Soundstream

Mate about to replace 2 12" alpine Type-S for a 12" type X... should be sweet

[ED Cobalt]

what the hell amp you gonna run that on man?

[Kenaz]

For headunits I reckon JVC make alright stuff if you're on a budget of less than $1000. Eventually I might upgrade the stereo in my Ghia

[oneredED]

If given a bit more cash, i'd go the alpine head unit and some MB Quart speakers (have heard a couple of nice systems with them) for a reasonable system...

For the moment i'll stick to brands like Clarion, JBL and Kicker, as they're more in my price range (actually, they're not, but they're closer LOL).

[DUMTEF]

for budget stuff, id say response amp, speakers, subs. they have great value for money

headunits id go eclipse, alpine or jvc

for dear stuff id go with everyone else thats saying pg, focal, soundstream etc.

[CATman]

For me has to be a bit of a mix, clarion for head units. morel speakers. audioson amps and pioneer dvc subs.

How can they be running at 500wrms each and yet have 1800w delivered to them?????

1000 = 1800 ??

yeahh man, th amp is 1800 watts, which is 1000 rms, so and even 500 rms for each

u talkin about speakers or head units? the new kicker ss series speakers sound awesome best 6.5 splits i have heard in a long time even better with 8inch subs in the door aswell. but for head units you will have to go a long way to better pioneer for the money and alpine is way over rated if u ask me.

[Dezza]

I've got a Clarion CD/MP3 player and 6" Clarion rear speakers. It is awesome. Now I just need to replace my front speakers!

[Inferno]

Pioneer all the way baby! This is why

Headunit

Fronts

Rear

Subwoofer

For Speakers

For Sub


Awesome stuff

[mrngo]

i picked other, JVC. JVC decks have been quite reliable for me and there cost effective.
I recently picked up a KDAVX-1. Good if you want a DVD player, but dont want a motorised screen. Check it out on ebay. Black matches your dash

[ED Cobalt]

Man stuff that, pioneer is so extravaganza with the looks and everything, they've forgotton that sound systems should sound good. I was close to buyin that stuff when i first got my ED less than six months ago, just because it looked cool, than i was shown the alpine gear and it was amazing. I would put the best of alpine to the best of pioneer ANY DAY.

[Inferno]

I suppose it just comes down to what you like. I don't go much on Alpine simply cos I don't like the brand or the headunits they have. There's nothing wrong with Alpine, I just prefer Pioneer. And to be honest the only reason I have pioneer gear is because the stocko speakers in my car where pioneer, which is why I stayed with them, and there's nothing wrong with the sound in my car.

But as of this minute, pioneer is winning heh

[ED Cobalt]

True dat Glock

[Sprint_ED]

would have to be JVC for head decks infinity for speaker and amps

[webby_191189]

Rockford fosgate

thread mine central here look at the date "02-09-05, 04:41 PM " and time

[TOASTED]

its all about how its setup, a response (cheapish, tho very good quality) setup could easily beat a most expensive Rockford in terms pf clarity and performance. my advise is research things like cancellation, optimum sub box size and spend time tuning your system for the best results. little things like having your head unit at 3/4 volume when tuning your amps helps.

[MISSN2]

Alpine head unit are the way to go and i've got all rockfordstuff in mine and love heaps better than my focals were!!!

[TOASTED]

uh yea lol my vote goes to other, response, mainly the response precision range

[ed ant]

for me poineer is the best

[xr6fa]

Focal splits.
