[QUOTE="evan, post: 2585223, member: 562202"] For a cabin that small, if you're going for SQ, you could ditch the rear fill and go with one sub. To get the sound I think you're going for, proper imaging would work better than adding unnecessary speakers. I'm not one for using all one brand just to match, but I think both the Pioneer 880, and the TS-C720PRS components are worth considering. The HU for it's clean numbers (S/N 105db, 4 volt pre-outs) and tunablity (dual 16 band eq's, capable of running a 3 way active system), and the comps for the bang for the buck performance.
