Questions on Quality.
So while I've been saving up for the system, when it comes to quality -both construction and clarity- what brand of speakers -both coax and component- and sub woofer - 1 or 2 ohm impedance - are going to be the best?
80w -or 125w per channel @ 2ohm-, rms, on the speakers and 400w rms on the sub @2 ohm - or up to 600w rms @ 1ohm -

I was looking at a pair of Infinity Kappa components for the front, and coax for the back
The sub I had yet to decide on, maybe a Alpine Type R, or or a Fosgate?

As of right now just one sub in a stealth box is my plan, and yes I'm going for sound quality, not necessarily quantity, but if it can be loud and play great thats definitely a plus! lol

Also look into DC audio subs. They have level 3 12's that are a good SQ sub but also really hit and they're 600w/1200w max. I can get you contact info if you'd like.
It also depends on how much room you got for each sub, i don't know the exact dimensions of the stealths, though.

Not to go against what has already been proposed, but what about the Rockford Fosgate T110D2, it fits my volume requirements and would go to 1ohm, and RMS of 600watts which would match my amp good...
This is the alpine I had in mind: http://signature.crutchfield.com/s_5...3D.html?tp=111
or maybe even this pioneer..
http://signature.crutchfield.com/s_1...D2.html?tp=111
Just looking at the specs on these anyway...
And as for the speakers, has anyone had any trouble or goood luck with the Infinity Kappas? Like these? http://signature.crutchfield.com/s_1...cs.html?tp=105 -for the front door-
and these: http://signature.crutchfield.com/s_1...9i.html?tp=105 for the passenger holes?
Or should I stick with alpine for the speakers?
Again, I won't be using the monsoon amp at all.

The RF sub will work fine in the stealth enclosure, but the Fi SSD (W/high qts)would still be a better option at $170, and would work great in a stealth enclosure.
IMO, no need to run all alpine, unless you want to, but I'd pick them over the Infinity Kappas. I run 7 different brands in my system, because that's how I got the results I wanted. Don't be afraid to "mix-n-match" brands.
Also, I'd run the RF sub or Alpine sub, long before the Pioneer sub.

I decided to go with CDT's for my doors and sail panels. Couldn't be happier. While my front ones cost $999 new, they were well worth what I paid for them used. I've listened to ALOT of speakers, and nothing has ever had the clarity of CDT's. The only thing I'd go with over them, would be Focal or Rainbow. As for the sub, you can't go wrong with the Fi Q.
