To be fair, that's a bit of a contridiction of terms IMO...
JL and Focal make great kit - but I wouldn't pair their stuff with a Kenwood HU if it was me. Alpine everytime for me

i got a sony MD head unit, and its been great for me, decent full range sound. dont be diss-heartened mate!
i dont think i'd buy sony speakers tho, about the only brand i'd go for for speakers and amps is VIBE. love the stuff!!

sony is much better than splx mate!!! think u missunderstood a bit! the reason i'd stay with vibe is coz i love them, they have excellent sound quality, and deep bass, but its heavy and expensive. and i would go for an alpine headunit over just about any other head unit anyway.
sony are muh better than splx mate!
