Have heard a system running on the old models and they were good. As a general rule they do make good amps, but I haven't heard of many people who have them. Not bothering with the audisons then??

i did think about the audisons as soon as i posted i realised that it wont be too much more money for the audisons!
So really worth going for them really!
But as im not gonna be buying straight away theres so many things to look out i think of a different set up each day
Im thinking of the audisons, those rainbow comps we looked at and either 2 x W3s or the arc audios as reading more and more good things about them!
Sound good?

Deffo worth it for the audisons, Arc audio are very good subs. My IDQ is basically the same sub(it is the same build house) and i love it to bits.
for more info go to www.nearfield.co.uk they are the UK distributors. or email matt@nearfield.co.uk , top guy and will give you loads of info.

Might be getting some genesis now
Getting some JL comps cheap but brand new so dont need the extra power so getting a genesis profile 2 as cheaper and better RMS for the comps, so probably get a sub profile amp aswll to match, and maybe some W3s or a single W6!

thats nice
i was planning on some rainbows but these JLs come up at a good price!
And it means the amp is ceaper and the rest of the ICE will be cheaper aswell then, decided to go smaller scale then i originally planned as i dont really appreciate it as much anymore!

Ive got the 3 ways at the mo and they are good enough for me!
and nearly half the retail price well over half the RRP aswell but still brand new!
i just think i dont need to spned so much on it again as when im in my old mans car with infinity comps running off bottom ranging HU and a 12 WO running off a tiny MTX, i still enjoy the sound from that!
When im in mine it doesnt sound as good, well it does but i know it needs setting up and should sound better!
so im after something im happy with!
