DEI's amps aren't bad.. same fare as current model Orion, PPI, a/d/s, Viper, Directed, etc etc.. all the other companies DEI owns now.
I'm not a big fan of Pioneer for speakers though.
They're made decently, but performance is middle of the road at best in my personal view.

Alright kiki...before reading this i had already backed out on the pioneer's for now..i asked for 2 of them as a xmas present and then realized that I would probably change my mind down the road...I do want a 4 sub setup though..i dont want to spend a fortune on each speaker...id rather have a large ported box built to make the subs loud..thats just me..any reccomendations on subs are appreciated

what kind of vehicle do you drive? For most 12" subs, a ported box should be around 1.5^ft. Add this up, four 12" need 6^ft, that's a lot. If you are thinking of 15"s, they generally need around 3^ft PER SUB. Just make sure you have everything planned out ahead of time, that you don't waste any money, ya know?

I drive a Jeep Cherokee Justin. I'm pretty sure it has the room for 4 12's but i'll definitely look into it a little bit more..thanks for the suggestion

Crzystng has a Jeep Cherokee, and he has two 15" Tempest in a box with seperate chambers of 4^3cf, and some HUGE ass ports sticking out :P, go with some Resonant Engineering RE's? or a step higher?

I was actually considering the RE's..i could go with a step higher but that would require a lot of patience on my part(because of the cost)..lol i can't stand listening to speakers w/o bass in the back...its heartbreaking..damn thieves!
