[QUOTE="garvey, post: 3106026, member: 577996"] OK, in my earlier thread I was thoroughly shamed for falling into a salesperson's trap to buy almost all JL stuff at an inflated price. I took the advise of everyone and looked around and here's a revised system: EF-61FG - CDT Audio EuroFrame 6.5" 2 Way Component Speaker System: $199.99 PDX-1.600 - Alpine 1 Ch 600 Watt Power Density Digital Amplifier: $349.99 PDX-4.150 - Alpine 4 Ch 600 Watt Digital Amplifier: $449.99 12W3V3-4 - JL Audio 12" 600 Watt 4 Ohm Subwoofer: $209.99 MAX675VD - Clarion 7" touchscreen Double-DIN DVD Multimedia Station: $679.99 (I also like the Alpine IVA-W205) Subtotal: $1,889.95 My budget is $2000 to $2500 for everything -- and my goal is (1) excellent sound quality for diverse music, and (2) excellent iPod & Sirius integration. Am I on the right track? Any recommendations? Someone want to put together a system for my budget to show me something better? I'm begging for help -- I'm a university professor and this is my first attempt to upgrade a sound system in my vehicle (FJ Cruiser TRD SE). Thanks guys for the feedback. You've saved me some cash & opened my eyes to what else is out there. [/QUOTE]
