picking up my 2007 nissan altima today. Last setup I had was a single magnum 12 on a us amps m2d2. I was thinking of doing either 2 magnum 12s or 2 fi 12s with an IA20.1.. which series of the fi's would compare to a magnum? this is going to be a daily driver. I'm also thinking of keeping the factory HU in there for a "clean" look.

Fi Q FTW. You might run into problems keeping the factory hu. My sister just got an 08 altima just last week. I say double din ftw. It'll still look clean as hell.

You think so, man? I'd need to find a nice double din. I've never done anything but a single with adapters.

By the looks of my sisters Altima I would say a double din would look veryyy clean. IMO I'd go with the Alpine W205 or W505. Depending on how much cash you have haha.

money isn't an issue, as long as it looks and sounds good.

I'm digging the kenwood DD's personally, and the JVC doubledins are on sale at sonicelectronix.com

I try to stick with Alpine, Kenwood does make pretty nice stuff though. I've had one JVC and didn't like it.

If you like Alpine, go with the W505 for sure. You won't be disappointed, it's an amazing double din.

Not meaning to thread jack but will one 18" Fi Q have good SQ? Or is it a myth that 18" speakers can not have good sq.
