[QUOTE="keep_hope_alive, post: 8253489, member: 576029"] the previous posts are not giving you a good representative "system" in regards to SQ. focusing on bass only does not yield musical results. if you want a musical system "sound quality" you put all of your initial effort into the front sound stage. and only after nailing it, do you add a sub. most of what we consider "bass" in music is in the range of the speakers anyway. the Pilot has potential. front components: $400 budget front speaker amp: $400 budget install, LOC, and wire round out the investment. then, later on, add a sub and a sub amp with about half that budget. if you can get a good deal on speakers or an amp, you can fund a head unit. eliminate rears for now, those would be the very last thing you spend any money on. I run Alpine and won't run Pioneer. people have preferences and mine is for better engineered/constructed products.

JVC has several double-din with T/A. As far as brands for component speakers: Hertz and Focal are good brands. Even Alpine Type-X Pro is decent. [/QUOTE]
