[QUOTE="Jerhemy, post: 7870853, member: 639281"] I'm not sure the exact reasons why it's bad to mix sub brands and sizes in a setup, but hopefully some of the more experienced members will chime in. As far as I can guess, it's due to issues with phase and cancellation between the two different drivers. It's always best to just save up and do isht right the first time, I had 90% of my system bought and sitting waiting to install but I didn't have my batteries or HO alt yet so I waited. No sense in half-a[COLOR=black]s[/COLOR]sin it after you've got that much money into it already ya know. And as far as best buy installers go... I had my first system (when i was 16) installed there, and all i had was issues with grounds and amp settings. It is nice that they will warranty their work, but if you buy the equipment off ebay or somewhere other than best buy that day, they won't warranty much at all, blame it on the "cheap ebay equipment." (that's what happened to me) I would much rather install everything myself and KNOW that it's done right, or at least you know exactly whats been done. Best buy installers don't know jack, at least around here haha. [/QUOTE]
