whats a good system set up?

first of all.i know as much about audio equipment as i do about the bible, so i need to know what would be a good set up. that will rock the car 4 rows down,but wont totally break the bank. or beter yet, what are some of your set ups that you really enjoy?

I am running 2 RF 12's. with 1200 Watt RF amp.
Pounds nicely. Problem I have is my rear view mirror won't hold. Always tilts down when I pump up the volume.

I have 2 RF Punch DVC 15's in a 5.5 cu. ft box for sale with an Orion HCCA 225r amp for $600 obo. It will pound the sh*t out of anything else in that price range (originally cost me about $2200)

There are so many companies that have good setups, it comes down to your preference. I personally really like the RE audio and U.S amps combo.

Ghetto Stylez...

Im rocking the dual 12" Legacy's with a 520w Power acoustik Amp and some blown Audio pipe rears... I know its not very helpful but I guess it goes to show that there is more than one way to skin a cat.

Most true SQ competitors don't actually use rear speakers. So... it's usually considered a good thing

(it has to do with setting a proper sound stage and imaging...but we won't get in to that here)
