I am looking for a good 6.5" component set, and I came accross a huge variety of course.
Some that caught my eye, were from Alpine & Boston Acoustics.
do the Boston Acoustic Rally series ( http://www.bostonacoustics.com/ca_pr...&CategoryID=14 ) exceed the performance of a Alpine Type-R component set?
Is the Boston Acoustic ProSeries ( http://www.bostonacoustics.com/ca_pr...&CategoryID=14 ) worth the price? Keep in mind I can get these at wholesale price.
Any other brands I should look into... specific models?
To power 6.5" component's what would be a good wattage for a 2 channel amp?
Do head units EVER have any high-pass outputs on them so I can run some smaller speakers along with my components?
Thanks

BA pro's are very nice speakers as are the alpine type r's .............. buy the ones that sound best to you
as for power I prefer about 100-150 watts rms per channel ..........
and yes decks do have built in crossover sections ..........kenwood excelon decks have independant front and rear highpass filters(each can be set at a different crossover point) and a lowpass filter for the sub
alpine makes one with adjustable crossover slopes too and 3 way capability ..(can't rember the model number)

does Panasonic by any chance make something with those types of features?
I think I'm gonna go with Panasonic... look like they got some very nice MP3 decks with good features, for affordable prices [img]smile.gif[/img]

If it HAS to be Panasonic, avoid any models below 7XX series.
I have a friend, or should I now say a fiend [img]tongue.gif[/img] who has a CDF 583U, and I notice it has poor balance/fader controls, doesn't sound stereo in any way, and has the Panasonic muddy sound to add to that.
The 783 is iffy. Sounded better, but I still don't buy flash. It's just me.
