Not many people actually pursue a system this complex anymore, good for you to take the plunge. I'm sure that you will learn tons from the experience as well.

 

Why do u say that? Do people avoid it because of the complexity and the fact that it needs too much time to tune and install etc?

 

Sometimes yes, other times it is because of the outlay of huge coin, sometimes it is mounting space for all the amplifiers as well. Another thing could be how to properly power all these amplifiers. In general though, when done properly it can have just amazing results.

 

My trunk space is not so convincing!!!
But I hope that everything will fit including a PC!!!

 

I like tru tech.. just cause I'm using them (once they arrive... stupid delays)

Sure wish i could find/afford some of these bad *** amps ya'll are talkin about. But the jl i have sounds good enough for me on my highs and the jbl pound the s**t out of my 12's while still maintaning a clean/deep sound that can play every note of the double bass without taking a breath. So i guess i don't really need all the great soung quality amps. Allthough i was looking to buy 3 arc 1500d a while back but desided against it (got the jbls for a steal---average 145 a peice)

 

Hey DjBrac
There are another couple of companies that you may want to look at Celestra. They (VA210 anyways) are well designed and sound great, similar to Arc and Tru. One other that is not as well publicised is uDimension (Forte series). All of the amps PEI and Westec mentioned are good for SQ.
Good Luck J

 

SQ amplifier theory: (clears throat)

There are two things that a quality amplifier should NOT do -

1) A quality amplifier should not add anything to the signal being amplified.

2) A quality amplifier should not take away from the signal being amplified.

...basically this supports Mike Bisson's post where he says amplifiers do (should) not have a sound.

*Italics mine.
