Alpine makes some really great speakers. I would also recommend infinity.
bump any more advice, please?
well lets see if I can give advice seeing that I am bored.
I say you get some magazines and look through them. Read the reveiws.
Shops are mainly on commision so they will sell you a s**t sandwich and make you beleive it is the best stuff in the world.
If it's shiny, chances are it is s**t.
Don't get more than a 1000 watts unless you are looking to get a new alternator.
For a mainstream company you can't go wrong with, alpine ftw
if you want to spend money there are a lot of great companies out there, and there are a lot of s**t companies.
A list of good companies in my opinion
JL
Infinity
Alpine
Diamond
Focal
MB Quart
ImageDynamics
Boston
Crystal Mobile Sound
Zapco
Arc Audio
Clarion makes good decks

wat u mean new alternator??,,,,if i was to put in 1500w wat else wud i need to go along with it?
i'm rockin type r's (6x9's) in the back and type s's in the front. (i know it's a little backwards), but i love it. now ima save up for a type E or a Type R 12" sub.
Type r's have better highs than type s's. They'll be a lot nicer with a sub, cuz then u'll have more of a range assigned to different components, rather than type s's and no sub, which is nice if u just want a really basic speaker upgrade.
I'd also recommend saving up for alpine components. they rock real hard from wut i hear.

for true advice there are sooo many better subs than w7 or L7. Both are extremely overrated subs and over priced.

the xxx subs from resonant engineering are monsters, I seriosly have no idea why people would waste money on something like a L7 with great subs like these availabe.
And for another great line of subs check out image dynamics
I hope you weren't refering to the companies that I posted, if you are that would be a shame.
I run MB Quart components up front and Orion 6X9's in the rear. 10" Kicker sub rounds it all out. Sounds great. Plenty of thump and great highs/ mids.
nope not yours. the alpine and stuff like taht.
I've used MB Quart exclusivley for many years now and been happy with them, but I'm gonna go with a set of Focal speakers for the front of my Civic. I've heard good things about Focal for so long I wanna try them out.
Can you guys give some websites that sell Focal, besides Ebay and woofersect?

you arent going to find many sites that sell focal online. They are a little ti high end and respected company to peddle their s**t to places like woofers ect.
f**k that hole. I remember when they were claiming they were a Zapco authorized dealer on their website till Zapco posted up on theirs that they werent, and they are pretty much transshipping crooks

Yeah sites that sell Focal are hard to find, I've been Googling my butt off looking for some. I've only found Focal on Ebay, woofersect and sonicelectronix.com. I was just hoping to find more to find the best prices. I'll go see how much they cost at Tweeter, if they aern't all that much more I'll just buy them there, I'll pay a bit extra for peace of mind.
