Simple sq set up please evaluate

[alann 10+ year member]

This is a simple SQ set up that I'm currently working on, please let me know if I'm heading towards the right direction.

Headunit:

I came down to these:

Pioneer 880PRS

Eclipse CDA7000

Kenwood 25th Anniversary XXV-01D

Kenwood KDC-X889 or X890

Clarion DXZ-865MP

Front:

Seas Lotus Reference running passive cross-overs

Rear:

None

6 1/2" midbass

6 1/2" Coxial

Sub:

1 - ID IDQ 10inch in a .66cu ft enclosure

Amp:

1 - Helix hxa500 mkII

140W RMS bridged x 2 for front

250W RMS x 1 for sub

My main goal of this system is all SQ and simplicity, I know the size of the sub might not be a choice for many but I really want to keep my trunk space as much as I can..since I barely have any to begin with this explains my choice for the 10inch IDQ which is design for small enclosures. I'm still having a tough time deciding on which HU and if I should go for rear fill. My max budge for a HU is probably around 700-800 bux. I know Clarion and Pioneer has flag ship HU (DEX-P9 and DRZ-9255) that can be had for around if not a little more than my price range but it seems like those HU can only play CDs and not MP3s?

Yes, you are looking very good! Couple of things though. I think you will really love one of those excelon head units have one myself, very happy with mine. Rear fill, I pesonally like it but I have a car that rear fill works well with.

Very nice choice for front stage. I would leave out the rear fill. The really nice HU's won't play MP3's for a reason, the quality isn't there.

Um... what kind of car is this going into? People shouldn't be answering questions on rear fill until they know that. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif
