I disagree. I used to work in a car audio joint and I got to play with all sorts of equipment. By far audiobahn is not the best bang for the buck. Believe it or not, its JBL that is. Even their bottom of the line sub ( I think the GTO) sound excellent and you can pair them up for serious earth shattering bass. Their amps tolerate alot of stuff. I belive the new ones will handle 1 Ohm. And they are actuall smart amps, it is hard to kill them. They also do not require a fan, they are Class D monoblock amps which run extremly efficient and draw small amount of power compared to normal AB amps. The JBL mono amps are perfect for honda civics because they dont strain the battery (which the stock battery is no bigger than my ass cheek) or damage themselves from small amounts of power. I killed a Kenwood amp that way.
BTW Meangreen.... Im not trying to shoot you down LOL

ahahah JBL?!!?!..naw dog..pheonix gold..you can grab two octane-r's for like $140. and pheonix gold has the best amplifiers out there(waaaayyyy underrated for what they push) //JBL needs to stay in the home sound area where they rule. Go PG.
as far as ur system goes...drop the boss stuff, good cheap stuff if u want a quick head unit its alright but other then that ..no...the audiobahn stuff probably isnt as worth it either. audiobahn makes quality subs once you get into the ALUMQ's and up but their low level subs are not up to par. like i said before..go pheonix gold.

P Squared = Precision Power for the amps. Good call on the Phoenix Gold

Its up to how much u want to spend, my first system consisted of 1-10 inche kenwood sub in a truck box in my 91 trooper powered by a 300 watt jensen old school amp, i had the sub 10 mins before i fried it lol and thus began my obsession lol, now im getting ready to put in my 2-12inch infinity kappa perfect subs pushed by my memphis 1000d and im getting 2 sets of the kappa perfect component sets one for the front and rear and i just got in my panasonic 8300u headunit .. so its all about what you want and the sound you like. opinions are like buttholes, everyone has one and they are all different lol

In my expierience audiobahn is a scam. Actually JBL techniacally invented the subwoofer and I know alot of people that wont dare to walk into a best buy nor even look at one in its direction and they still like the high end JBL stuff. Also, PG is by far NOT the best amp out there. I know what im talking about. And the best sounding amp I have ever come across is this: http://butleraudio.com/main.html . But by far audiobahn and PG (which PG isnt bad) are not the outcommers compared to the world of car audio. There are brands out there that are so intense and precise that some come with cotton gloves for handling! No lie.
