Fi Q's for sure... bad a$$ sq and will get plenty loud. Or get si mags since you seem to have a never ending money supply for adding on to your truck. I got the Fi SSD's cus im a cheap ***... but Fi is a great company and i have heard the Q's at a show before and they sounded amazing. Havent heard mags (wish i could listen to brypink2's setup) but i have heard they sound as good if not better than the Fi Q's.

Although... with all that being said, you will not be dissapointed with those audiomobiles if you build the box to specs.

...and BTW... your other $400 left over ... should go to the "help Rowdy lift his truck so he can stop drooling over everybody elses bad a$$ rize lifted trucks and have one of his own" fund

haha, im just messin with ya pat... just jealous of your truck thats all.

and yea... its kind of hard to find them, www.soundsolutionaudio.com has a used one for sale for 325 in the classifieds i think they are supposed to start carrying or may already carry SI now... just hit the car audio forums out there and maybe contact audiojunkies they only show BM but they carry SI so email or call and ask about the MAG's.

Look into FI, RE, DD, stereo integrity
I am not familiar with TC Sounds, but I do have experience with JL and Alpine. I think Alpine makes some solid head units, and some pretty good speakers, but I wouldn't get the subs.

As for JL, YES...they are pricey, but to say you are just paying for the name is a very inaccurate statement. JL does as well as it does because they make high quality, great products. The W7 drivers were used to create the Fathom, and Gotham, both of which are home theatre subwoofers. The JL home theatre subwoofers are literally blowing away everything on the market. They are absolutely astounding.

JL is pricey, but if you can get a deal, you won't regret JL. Their stuff is built to take abuse, and keep on pounding.

one name that hasnt been mentioned that i use is Audiobahn. ya ya, people say alot of bad things about audiobahn about how they are not great quality...thats true for their lower end budget subs. they suck. but their higher end stuff is actually very impressive. ive owned the 10" awp310t which is ONLY 4 inches tall (meaning it fits UNDER your backseat) and it takes 1000 watts RMS CONTINUOUS power (2000 peak). yes it bumps. yes its louder then my friends' systems (some have 2 12s). this single 10 sets off car alarms. you can prolly find it on the web for ~200$ maybe. i love mine. you wont find any sub out their that is 4 inches tall and hits like this one, i guarentee it.


rowdy-how did you lift your back seat? and is it still comfortable for people to sit with it lifted like that?

I used the LMI welding seat lift. i believe i paid $155 w/ shipping from LMI's website. It is actually very comfortable with the seat lift in. I am 6 ft tall and head room isnt really a problem either.

that would be wise, that was the first thing i did when I put the first system in the truck... plus remote start always comes in handy.
