I got a single cab 1995 chevrolet s-10, I plan on putting 2 10"s or 2 12"s behind the seats in sealed enclosures, I want to run 5.25" Components in Q-form kickpanels, and 6.5" Midbass drivers in the stock door locations.. I want to run 1 amp for subs, 1 amp for component, and 1 amp for midbass's. I want a 2 farad cap on all 3 amps.

What is the best brand to go with for an SQ setup out of these... Visonik, MA Audio, Digital Audio, Audiobahn, Ultimate, Power Acoustik?

Also for the sub-box spec's it needs to be sealed and no bigger then

5/8" MDF Construction
15.25"H x 14.75"W x 4.25"TD x 7.75"BD

Also I am looking to go with all 1 brand and im kinda partial to sticking with these brands if possible

Audiobahn, MA Audio, Visonik, Digital Audio, Power Acoustik, Ultimate Sound, JBL... Because I am wanting to spread my money out and get the video and security perspective also.

For your mids and highs I would look at the MB Quart Q series https://www.mbquart.com/listings.asp?cat=Auto&strt=1&series=Q+Series and to power them the Audiobahn A4125HCQ https://www.audiobahninc.com/products/results.asp?categoryID=9&seriesID=21&offset=5# the amp puts out some serious clean power and the sound is very clear and crisp.

As far as the subs go I would suggest 3 Audiobahn Alum10’s https://www.audiobahninc.com/products/results.asp?categoryID=5&seriesID=34# and to power them a Audiobahn A18001DQ. https://www.audiobahninc.com/products/results.asp?categoryID=9&seriesID=24#

Or a A2300HCQ https://www.audiobahninc.com/products/results.asp?categoryID=9&seriesID=21#

This is just one suggestion. If I were you I would go to your local shops and listen to all the different brands. Then make your decision on what sounds best to you. However I would not suggest Audiobahn for your mids and highs
