[QUOTE="ds0110, post: 8092459, member: 607866"] Those XXX components are GREAT for loud midbass,but arent really sq oriented. For sq you want something with better tweeters. Possibly a dedicated tweeter amp also. Check into rainbow slc, if you can afford it rainbow germanium. Also focal and morel make some very good components. Your choice of brand depends if you like "bright" or "warm" sounding tweeters. (rainbows are bright) front stage amps - zapco, zed, mcintosh, and denon are probably the top tier. Then you have audison, jl, arc, and the old ppi art amps. Of course (my sig) id say be patient and wait for a ppi art in good condition to show up on ebay. Do the big 3 on your electrical with 0 gauge wire. Im curious as to why you did two runs of 4ga wire instead of one run of 0ga to a dist. block then 4g/8g to your amps? You mustve added the bass later. Sound deadener will also help. Especially if you have kick panels or enclosures for your components. KNU makes 100mil. Going the extra mile would be covering that with ensolite. You could spend quite a bit on sound deadener alone though... [/QUOTE]
