[QUOTE="hispls, post: 8774561, member: 614752"] DD is high quality and will perform as advertised but they are very expensive. JBL used to make a very nice subwoofer but I think they've been out of production for a long time now. I would recommend JBL for components for mids and highs and their amps will always be reliable. Kicker amps are also very solid, if their new Solo X is available for sale the prototype looked very nice and I would expect good things from those. Otherwise their component speakers are OK and their lower line subs are good but built for rather modest power levels. JL is all very nice all around but if you're just trying to get loud they probably will not get you as far as DD for the money. That all said, it's really hard to say what your definition of "very loud" is going to be considering there's probably not a lot of big sound systems in SA for you to compare. It may well be that you'd be super impressed with the sort of thing we could go buy at Best Buy store here in the USA, but if you wanted something that would be competitive in a competition you could just stick with DD and have a very good chance of being competitive if you build the box right and have adequate electrical system to feed your amps.
