Nice plug to get your question answered.



Budget is your limiting factor here (isnt it always lol). How much do you want to spend?


For a pair of BMs your going to want 800-1000 watts. BMs only come in Dual4 so you need the power at 1 or 4 ohm.
Personally, if your looking at the BMs, I wouldnt even look at RE. Unless you get something used, I dont think they have anything in the price range of a BM that will compare.

Rainbow pretty much has something for every budget. Thier most popular budget friendly set is probably the SLC line, Germ seem to be pretty popular, they cost about 100-150 bucks more if I remember right though.
What amp depends on what line of 'Bows you go with. A nice strong two channel is all you need really.

I was pretty much planning on buying the stuff when the moneys availible & put it all together as I get it, its not like Im in a huge hurry or anything. So budget isnt that big of a factor, but i would like to say a couple thousand.

I really like the idea of having SIs & 'Bows but its hard for me to basicly fire Rockford, they are pretty good products.

Bartak (or anyone else), in your opinion are rockford subs, etc as good quality & such as other brands? Im sure theyre components are no where near the quality of 'Bows but what about their other products.

EDIT: Im just going to stay with rockford, especially since I can get a great deal on the new 07 products
thanks for the time & help though bartak.

Have fun with the new stuff.
