2. For the amplifier alternative, you should also take a look at the Helix amps. They've been in the amplifier business for a long time but it just recently (like last year) that they decided to "go down" the price ladder. While they aren't that well known, they hail from Germany and counts Brax as their high-end line. And Brax has always been the envy for people in the industry -- they've always been the creme of the crop.
3. If it's a pickup, pick a shallow mount subwoofer. Pick your subwoofer depending on your space. It's not the other way around as most newbies mistake it to be.
4. Purchasing a subwoofer is: Knowing how much space you can spare -> know what box you can fit there -> choose your subwoofer driver
5. The wonders of SQ is that you'll play all genres well once you've tuned your system well. People don't buy Php1M speakers (in home audio) so to play Eagles. They purchase it so they can throw any song they want at it and it'll sound good.
6. No difference: get the one that's cheaper (on the deadening)
Just heard the DLS reference nung isang araw. Well sa tingin ko okay naman na ako sa kanya hehe. May nag suggest din sakin ng helix g four recently. Silang dalawa ng sonus pinagpipilian ko sa ngayon or kung ano nalang sabihin ng installer, sana meron sa mickeys ng Helix. And for the sub, pioneer premiere shallow sub 8" nalang talaga walang ibang kakasya haha. So for the deadening ill go for StP Black na nga lang, yung classmate ko kasi sabi may difference daw Black sa Silver kasi sa kuya nya Silver at black sa kanya, halata daw difference. Yun nga lang magkaiba silang sasakyan haha kaya baka mali lang sya.

Pero kayo sir jhnkvn, ano opinion niyo sa DLS reference vs Focal 165v? Yup ittry ko naman din focal bago ako bumili. Kaso nga lang di ako makapag aral para sa exams ko kakaisip sa kanila! Hahaha
