since i am all into sq these days, i want the best sound possible. so here is my idea.

get a set of dynaudio 360gt (3 way components). use my kicker amp to power that since it does 450+wrms x 2. then buy a jl 1000/1 to power my rl-s.

what do you guys think?

CDT is pricey. Plus these other companies can offer more for less.

In my opinion dyn walks all over CDT. The 360s are some of the nicest speakers i've ever heard, there extremely smooth sounding. Its a good call using the kicker amp on them because it will actually show them some real power.:-)

A 3way set like this is going to be all install if you want it to sound good tho, but i know you already know that!


my vote is to do it.

With components there alot of diffrent choices and many are about equal. What makes them sound excellent or just OK is the Install and staging. Also the Power behind them and RCA's. Of course there are Bad/OK/Good/Better/Best but its all in what you do with them in building out the doors or kicks.

damn i just realized they are discontinued.... i wonder if they have any left in stock though... wait a minute.. no, they dont... my bad lol.... I like matching amps.... but i like JL slash over kicker... or zapco 8) hell why dont you just run helix or brax lol.


but really... maybe consider these http://www.mobilesq.com/shop/product_info.php?cPath=27_50_52_55&products_id=131 in the race or these http://www.woofersetc.com/index.cfm?fuseaction=product.display&Product_ID=5543 or these http://www.zapco.com/prod/Speakers/Comp/2_CK-16.2_Frame.htm I was talking to a guy at a shop once and he said he was in love with JL ZR components until he heard Zapco's high end components... he said they made the ZRs sound stupid.

idk i just thought I would throw a couple out there. Some of you may laugh at the Polk SRs but they actually are very, very good, well says experienced people lol, i have not heard them.

oh, btw, the zapcos can be found on woofersetc for 550

trevor if i am gonna do 2 way i'd rather keep my utopias. i am more than happy with them. i want to try a 3 some though.

also the i don't want to go overboard on getting amps cause the kicker sx models sound good enough. i am not out to win any sq awards. just cleanest i can have for daily without spending alot of money. :-)

yeah rovin. its a big difference with the jl 1000/1 than with the sx900.2.

i just got done installing the 1000/1 i borrowed from my friend and it pounds even louder and cleaner. i am using the sx900.2 for my comps. this amp is amazing for the component speakers.

...^^^ NOOOOOO ! - dont buy any new model mmats amps

been looking @ how bare the boards has been looking lately & how their built quality has been gone downhill

just last wk i was talking to a guy who had gotten a bad 3500d mmats (2700wrms @ 1ohm) & when he opened it up it looked so poorly built so he & a mmats dealer friend of his opened up a few other new amps same model & all looked cheap

with that 3ohms coil u got there i would say the JL would be best @ least in theory or if u could get ur hands on a PG xenon 1200.1 which like the JL can handle various ohm loads .......
