    Hey all, first post here so lets make it a good one :D

    Been thinking about getting a stereo system for a while now, just after some suggestions on the current setup that I'm looking at.

    Headunit: JVC KD-R705 - Already own it from my previous car.
    Subs: 2x 12" Infinity Kappa One 120.9w's - $300 each from Autobarn
    Amp: Infinity Kappa One - $800 also from Autobarn

    What's everyones thoughts that setup, prices and such?

    I just read a couple reviews on the subs, and not one mentioned anything about how they sound. They all agree that they are very good LOOKING though.
    Seems a bit pricy for what seem to be fairly basic subs. For the same money, I have these and can't recommend them enough

    I do plan to have speakers lol, haven't decided what ones though yet. Currently I just have some 6x9's in the back that my dad put there so im not really too fussed about replacing those. The fronts are all stock though.

    With the subs, how they sounded in an open area was pretty impressive (on one of those boards at autobarn) could feel it inside you (get your mind out of the gutter :D) if you know what i mean :p
