Velocity Motors - you indicated that you compete maily for SQ. What brand of component speakers do you use for your front speakers? What are your thoughts on metal dome compared to soft dome? I personally like the sound of the metal dome tweeter in local shops, but am not sure if they will be too bright or harsh in a car.

An ideal system depends on the car you are putting it into

If I were to do it under $1500 i would use lower line alpine headunit, diamond audion m6 speakers or the hex series, alpine 5 chanel that is weak in power but quality matters here, and lastly an alusonic 10 inch sub made by alumapro

I compete at little shows out here on the West Coast of Canada...I mostly compete in SPL in the past, but am starting to look at SQ now...I am more wondering what people on this board are running for equipment...last year my SPL system was as follows:

Clarion 9575 head unit

Audio Control Epicenter

Xtant coax's for front stage

1 Stroker 18

MMats d200hc sub amp

MTX 2300 for front stage

this year I have changed things a bit for SQ

Clarion 9575 head unit with Clarion 7500z dsp

Audio Control Epicenter

Focal PolyKevlars for front stage

2 Xtant Hex 12s

Crossfire bmf 1000d for sub amp

MTX 2300 for front stage

all the wiring and accessories have always been Monster Cable...

anybody else here from the West Coast?
