I know my IDQ10 beats out a previous W6 I had a while back (7+ years). Haven't read anything but negative stuff about the W7's and I've never done any of the research on any of the slim subs.

So your looking for a full system?

If you have no budget you can put together a killer system.

For speakers I would look at image dynamics xs, rainbow, and polk sr series.

Amps higher end ones are audison and zapco. But as you said you already have one.

Subs imaged dynamics Q series now because you listen to rap I recommend a 12 inch as it will go deeper and lower.

Now I am being sort of open to the selection as I have said a lot about choices in previous threads. Also if I had a actual budget to go on I could help you more. The sub boxes I recommend looking at z enclosures as they can go in and out easily and no modifications are needed. If you would like a more detailed selection just ask.

Go with the W6v2, I have owned both and still own and IDQ and the W6 takes the cake. The 500/5 is a great amp for going active with its staggered front and rear channels. Ive said it before, some of the best components for the money are Pioneers TS-C720prs. The frequency respnse graph is as smooth as sets that cost about 5 times as much. Spending big money isn't neccesary if the install is on point. Big audio keeps reccomending an IDQ like he owned, even though he claimed in his for sale thread he never used it, weird.
Make sure you deaden your doors with a dynamat or second skin mass loaded deadener and then use an acoustic foam over that. Spend the money and Install correctly the first time.

I agree....+10

Do not forget speed that I have done installs that have used ID subs. I have also done a few install with JL subs as well. I also agree with the detaining any high end audio is not worth putting in unless you damping the rattles and echoing from the metal.

Also I would watch what I buy from the premier line as they are being discontinued.

Hey guys thanks for all the responses. I'm not much on pioneer at all just personal choice. not going to bash them just not my thing. Have not owned any focals but heard them in the stores , also there are other good seperates. Dont know much about cdt but have read a little on them. Putting a lot of stock in conchz2 , and 2 fasts ,( since he has the same equipment in the same car) so that is a plus. Also as stated before doing it correct the first time is a must dynamatt etc.... Everyones opinion is respected and apreciated thanks again !!

You are both serving false information. And the real answer won't be available until CES 2010. You should both attend, maybe have a few beers together.
