speaking of rip off brands, ive seen on ebay 'yokohama'. its just a rip off of xplod. it even says its straight from the sony factory... so you pay for the quality and not the name

Boss is ****. Cheap and very, very nasty. I have only ever bought one thing of theirs which were 6.5" splits, after a week they stopped operating (the wire to the coil failed) so i took it back under warranty got it replaced, then just after 12 months (how ironic) the glue around the cone piece and outside rubber surrond came unstuck and not long after that happened, one of the crossover's tweeter output failed. I knew at the time they were cheap and nasty but like most people i wanted a low cost setup. So for that i deserved what i got!

I used a Boss 1000w amp in a comp car once it was the chunky black one with the removable end caps, cant think of the model (probably B1000 ---- lol), it kept two kicker 12's pumping and sounded OK.

also have a boss amp. its been going very well for over 4 years. very impressed considering the moisture, dust and heat it has been exposed to. it runs my 2 sony xplod subs and despite also what people say about xplod the system has been running strong for ages with no problems whatsoever.

Ye good onya for not choosing BOSS.. i mean sure its cheap and all.. but of course its cheap for a reason..
Speakers have a certain RMS watt they can handle.. and ure deck also has a certain RMS it puts out.. a **** deck with **** speakers will give u **** sound lol..
I got full Alpine system.. without amp/sub at the moment.. and in my opinion its better than the best BOSS system with amp/sub lol..
