What brands do you guys think are the best?

Question

So, I answer a lot of questions on here and am constantly trying to educate folks on the reality of how all this stuff works.  I also own a business where I try to stay high-end.  But I'm realizing there's a lot of business in other areas.

So my question to you all is, what are some of your favorite brands?  If I was going to bring in one or two brands, and my shop was down the street from your house, what brands would you be most excited to see?

I appreciate your input.

Dan · Answer

Sundown, Alpine, and Boston Acoustics for sure.
And to Charles, you're right. Anyone can do installs. But would you rather do installs based solely on a manual? Or would you rather get someone who's done multiple installs over and over? It's basically the same thing every time, with a few changes here and there. The professional is less likely to make a mistake than someone doing it themself for the first time.

the best thing people can do is stay away from the high priced in stallion fees that you guys get ,you might think that you guys have a college degree to install this equipment,anyone that can read and has a little patience can do there own work without being at the mercy of you in stallion guys who are for the most part in a rush and if not in a rush your charging 70 bucks an hour to do what any person with com men sense and a computer can do for free.and every thing you listed except that boss and sony crap is ok as long as you install it your self.installers mark up the equipment and the labor,and you have to be a dumbie not to know this.and most people are not dumbies they know their being raked over the coals. in a shop like you claim to have and you must be starving for customers or you wouldn't have time to be playing on line.

Everybody can't afford high end so something a little easy on the wallet.Hifonics make some pretty decent audio.One of my favorite brands Soundstream makes some nice subs.The Tarantula series can hang with the big dogs.DB Drive Plw subs sound real nice and there amps put out.Fusion Power plant and Lanzar Opti Drive are nice.I try out alot of different brands to see what they can do.

The JL Audio 10W3v3 subs do this better than anyone else. Even their 10 in subwoofers put out incredible levels of sound with amazing fidelity. JL Audio’s subs demonstrated their incredible power and accuracy at every turn, passing every one of our tests with ease and earning them the TopTenREVIEWS Gold Award. JL’s model is by far the best car subwoofer we reviewed. With great power handling, exceptional sound quality and impressive scores in the Help & Support category, these subs far outpace the competition.
