i don't think you going to find cheaper than auto wizz boet. they are cheaper and if not on par with all the other rockford distributors out there... unless you wanna import.

i know entry level splits were R850 last time i checked

Yeah its R844 for the Prime 80w Splits and R1950 for The Punch 100w Splits by them.

I'm going saturday to find out how much they going to charge to fit into custom mold in my lower door panels.

Does any have RF Audio, how would a split system like this compare to something like a a Pioneer 260w Split System (Pioneer TS-D1720C 260W 6.75 Sold @ Sound Match) I've actual heard these ones and they sound nice even if you really pomp them.

Or is the point blank no campison in terms of Amplitude/Loudness and Clarity

dude i got JBL's in my car and it sounds great... wanting to swop them out or maybe just add a set of rockfords. awesome sound.

My brother happens to work for auotwizz (no i can't get discounts lol, but any labour on my car i don't have to pay for) and he was explaining to me the reason why he would still choose rockford over other brands.
he compared hertz (damn good brand) to the rockford. showed me the internals and explained that at the peak power the hertz internals are weaker than the rockfords and run quite a high risk of blowing if you happen to be tuning or play your system "too loud". he mentioned they not bad products but rockfords reliability/durability is much higher than alot of the brands.

PS if you ever go for capacitors use lightning audio instead of rockford. its cheaper and the rockford uses LA internals. LA is more designed for the power supply whereas RF is more for the actual sound equipment... and they both are RF anyway

I think he wanted around R1500 for both... which was apparently reasonable according to load and clear.
He wrote off his Polo and the speakers don't fit in the Nissan NP200 he bought.
I am trying to get hold of him now, PM me an offer so long if you want :)
