Has anyone heard this system from alpine at the consumer electronics show. Opinions? I know the components are good for the price, but what made this the best sounding system at c.e.s? Install?

so, do any of you believe that a similarly priced system comprising of different components would sound as good? In other words is it the components that are the magic ingredient or is it the install?

Sounds like for that system (havent's seen the install myself but just from what I've heard through this thread) it was the install that mattered. Sure there has to be a certain level of quality in the equipment but this sounds like a prime showcase of how a well-designed install can make a huge difference in how a system sounds.

Does anyone have any links or information about the install? I'd be interested in learning more about what they did to make this system sound so good.
