I personally do not like kenwood car audio products. I would just switch your kenwood products to Pioneer they are at least a little bit better.

i also don't like kenwood products, if u give us a ptotal price your trying to spend i bet we can build u something sick. >>

i love the kenwood headunits >> if you guys saw my deck i think you'd fall in love with it?

Kenwood Decks are ok, but i personally wouldnt go with them for speakers. I have Infiniti Kappa's. To me, and everyone else who gets in my car, they sound way better than anything else ive heard. Alpines are pretty tite tho. My frined has Alpines in his car, they bump. I think if i couldnt get infinti's i would get Alpines.

Go with infinity or alpine speaks for the money far better than kenwood. I really don't like kenwood HUs; I would go with pioneer and if can afford it alpine is the wat to go.

i dont think i like anything in that setup. everything you have listed is just ok and you can find better for the money. i dont know bout dvd players but as far as speakers look into crystal mobilelsound (some of the best for the money) or if you are looking to spend a little more i like CDTs. For amps i have heard that power acoustic are junk, i dont think i have ever heard anything good bout their amps. i like JBL and US Acoustics amps because of their clean power for a low price. dont buy rockford for your subs, EVERYONE has rockford subs. they dont even sound good. go with some image dynamics IDQs (they sound great).

Wow I'm the first person to vote yes...well I guess I didn't check the stuff out, but the I'm all for the Pioneer 4-ways, I have them for all 4 speakers in my car, and they work good, considering the base is provided by 2 12" subs in the back.

I just use a high pass crossover, because they sound great on the highs, but are pretty weak on the bass.

So I'd keep those if I were you.

well yes alot of the companies u said are better, but im trying to stick with best buy products....i get discount lol. as for the kenwood speakers my friend usees them in semi-pro cometition, and has won some. ive listen to them and they sound amazing.

i dont think youll be able to beat the price....total with everything is 1,500. it costs that much just for the ID DVD normally

I had a friend who had that DVD player and he hated it. He traded it in for a pioneer unit. I personally am piecing together a new system, I don't have a dvd headunit but mine is going to be aroun $1200, and thats cdt speakers and subs with rockford fostgate amps and caps(already have an alpine headunit).

But its your car, if you like it, get it!
