I have been into audio for a while and have had many different brands of equipment. Some of these guys are serious audiophiles and will argue all day that one thing isn't good. I mean morel is awesome gear, but $1600 for a pair of components is way more than I could ever justify.
I have had success with base MBs and various JL and diamond audio subs. Just go to crutch field and read reviews of stuff you like. Then go to onlinecarstereo.com and buy it for 30% less.
