dave 2 Report post Posted January 19, 2004 for head decks i would definately go Alpine.... they are the best!!! imo. Amps i have heard Rockford Fosgate to the best..... Parallel Importerrs are in Paul Matthews rd in Albany (hard to miss)..... they do really good deals.... how ever only stock jvc, alpine pioneeer and sony so a RF Amp you would need to look else where, maybe driving sound?? oh Parallel Importers are always advertising in the herald so just look there for info Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
