[QUOTE="n2audio, post: 8680072, member: 540940"] So - I guess the current trend is to spend money on the fringe details (DSP's and tuning capability) instead of getting the foundation in place. You can build a perfectly good sounding set up with a cheap head unit, good speakers and plenty of power. I think your HU's fine and your infinity's are fine, but i've always had doubts about Fusion. Their website lists that amp as a mono with a 30A fuse. Retail sites list it as a 4 ch (which it clearly is) with a pair of 25A fuses. If that's the best you can do with your budget in your area then it's what you have to do 😕 That sub -- I would think you can do better -- even if it's just 10 or 20% more. That's among the lowest quality subs on the market, and enclosure specs are hard/impossible to find (not that a perfect box would make much difference). I THINK it's what would be called the XStream series in this part of the world. The specs I could find aren't good. 5mm xmax for starters -- which is nothing to work with in trying to produce low freqency music. [/QUOTE]
