well i appreciate your concern. but there's no need for that. if i spend around 700 for a system its not guna b so great. i know ppl around here that spend anywhere from 500-1200 and the systems still sound OK, but not great. so therefore im willing to put my limit up to 5K... doesnt mean i might spend all 5K, just saying the limits up there and i'd get some good suggestions. btw... this system wouldnt be just to be the loudest kid on da parkin lot.... i'll b a daily drive, and a competitor with the ppl that live around my area.
