What speakers and subs are being use in sound quality? I am working on a Acura TL type S. MB Q series QSD216 with JL subs.

I think thats good what your dealing with. Some people use Focal Audison Genesis and others. Just work with what you got and make sure you have great speaker placement and read that damn rule book...lol Good luck

Our cars that we build use Audison amps, Focal amps, focal speakers, alpine decks. Like the others said, it's about the placement and following the rule book to the letter.

I have 3 cars and they are all different. Dyn, Rainbow, Hertz speakers Tru, Audison, Sinfoni amps, Alpine F1 HU, Denon. But it is all about placement and follow the rule book.

Last year, MB Quart QSDs and Eclipse subs. This year the QSDs and JL subs. Sounds like we have something in common Laughing

I really like the sound of the Focals but I'll hold onto the Quarts for now.
Like everyone has stated it's alot to do with placement and I feel you can make almost anything sound really good with the proper processing.

Well...if what you say is true and your familiar with the rule book and issues concerning speaker placement, etc then I would say that most (at least that posted here) seems like there using Focal or Quartz speakers and Audison and Focal amps. But in my humble opinion I would say dont spend the extra money and work with what you have...however if you just have to spend the money I would say get some Audison vrx amps and Focal B's or at leat the Utopias Very Happy

G-d bless.

We're using Focal Be front stage, Focal K2 sub, and STEG K series amps.

It's all in personal preference.

If you don't know yet which speakers are good for what, then I'd suggest sticking with what you have for now and working on placement. Learn with what you have now. Give it some time and start to learn about what's out there. When you get ready to upgrade, you'll have a better idea about what's going to fit YOUR needs, not what fits everyone elses needs better than yours.
