I just want to know what you guys think about it. I chose this system because I have been using infinity Amps for about 5 years and they are amazing. I was very happy to see them launch a new line. If they would launch a new upgraded version of the Kappa Perfect Sub i would buy that in a heart beat as i am very please with that qualtity and bass they produce.
And the JBL subs....i have never heard a sub in this price range, that pounds that hard and that clear.
So let me know what you think. What would you change? Could i get better prices somewhere?
Thanks guys
i have kappa perfects up front and i paied 220 plus shipping on ebay. brand new in the box. theres alot of things there that you could get for cheaper.
either way, if your going with infinity for speakers, just know they're very power hungry. you really need to push them to get them loud. no complaints i nthe SQ department, they're very good on vocals.
Iv used infinity for a long time and i as well am happy with them. The power shouldnt be a problem sence im using a 111w x 4 amp.
i love my alpine amp thats all i know...
I've used JBL in the past but that was eight years ago, and I haven't even heard any JBLs for close to three. But Team Gates and who knows how many other competition teams are running them, so how bad can they be. I was happy with the 12s I had but I dunno.
If you wanted other suggestions I'd suggest Polk for the subs, personally. At this point I'm running a Polk/MOMO 15" DVC sub and I'm giving it over 500 watts at 2 ohms, and it's clean as hell for a 15", and my USAC test disc damn near makes my ears bleed. I went through three MTX subs in a month before the salesman handed me the Polk and practically dared me to try and blow it on my amp (MTX 3401). I've been trying for nearly a year now. Hell, I cranked the input trying to clip the signal at full volume and all I managed to do was shut the amp down.
I did decide on the Alpine Amps simply because they fit perfectly where i want to mount them. Thanks for the input guys..
Oh and i have used JBL...I actually just installed another pair of 12in Powers in a durango and they @!#$ made my ears pop...repeatedly..
Wow thanks man....Are they a reliable store?
I priced everything brand new through ebay stores and saved about 38%% after shipping.
Yeah ikesound.com is a very reliable store. I've bought a lot of audio equipment through them and havent had any problems so far.
I buy through IkeSound.com / Ebay / Friends... lol all seem to do good, so take the cheapest
.

well ike sound has the 4 channel amp that i wanted but ebay didnt sell...and its 60% less than MSRP
Apline 1
Alpine 2
Thanks guys. My order was just processed. I had to send MO's sence they kept having a problem using my debit card...

Now if i had ordered through crutchfield
The only Change I would make would be the Components, I just love CDT to death.
EF/CL Series start @ 200 or less and will wipe the Floor with the Kappa's.
