You have named off some decent name brands. In my opinion I would eliminate these from your list: HiFonics, Blaupunkt, Power Acoustic, and Crunch. This is based on bad personal experience and poor reputation of the manufacturer. Rockford makes some awesome subs and bass amps as well as JL and Kicker does. Infinity Kappa Perfects are excellent speakers and subs. I don't have much experience with Sony Xplod but many people bash it on this forum. Other brands to add to that list are: for HU's - Alpine and Clarion. Coaxial or component speakers - Polk and Boston Acoustic. Subs - Cerwin-Vega. My suggestion to you is to take your list of companies and go from store to store and try to listen to all the different ones.

id check into a/d/s amplifiers, i had good luck w/ the p650. I had Infinity kappa perfect 6.1 components and they scream. They dont have as much bass as the MBQUARTZ but i dont think i've heard anything as clear at higher vol. - I have JL subs and im plenty happy w/ the 3 12's i went w/ a sealed enclouser and was able to hit a lot lower. Depends what kinda music you listen to... I know people who listen to rap only because it normally has more bass and "hits" i perfer to listen to some crystal clear dmb and still be able to play some twista and have heads turning. Give ya something else to think about...

Find what sounds best to you. Go to a shop and listen to everything, tell the experts what you want and let them tell you what they recommend.
