it seems to me tha someone on this thread is quite set in his ways :chin:
plain and simple at end of day, its totally upto the listener wot sounds good and wot doesnt!
if you on a tight budget you buy wot you can and I'LL be honest, i have found some cheaper brand speakers to sound better than more expensive ones....................oh btw, i used to work in a car audio shop and know my stuff beastjay
ive had jbl, kenwood, sony and even atomics (american import!) subs and ive now nicely settled with jl audio, cus like i say, it all totally depends on budget, listeners prefernce and the car its going into! A 2000wrms sub will sound good in a big car like a bmw, but pants in a cinq, you can never tell!
IMO, if you want fusion, buy it, just remember, theres more factors to take into account than "how many watts has it got mate?"
