I'm still trying to figure out what my system layout is going to be. I'm trying to figure out what subwoofer amp to use, what front components I should use. I plan on either having the 12" IDMAX V3 subwoofer repaired, custom building my own sealed enclosure with IDMAX's specs. Either that or I might try to find a good deal for a 12" JL W7 and building myself a sealed enclosure. I'm looking for a 800-1000watts rms amp for under 350$, not sure if I can even get anything for that price.

For front components I was looking at some CDT Component systems. There are a large selection at http://www.woofersetc.com not sure the reputation of this website but I was just looking around. My price range was around 250$ and under for front components. CDT Audio KA-61 Kama K_Series 6.5 2way comp are 149.99$, CDT Audio CL-61 6.2 2way components are 249.99$, CDT Audio CL-61T - CDT Audio Classic 6.5" 2-Way Component Speakers for 149.99$, CDT Audio EF-61 - CDT Audio EuroFit 6.5" 2-Way Component Speakers for 199.99$, Infinity KAPPA60.7CS - Infinity 6-1/2" 2 Way component system which are 2ohm components these are 185.99$, KAPPA PERFECT6.1 - Infinity Kappa Perfect Series 6-1/2 Component System Infinity KAPPA PERFECT6.1 - Infinity Kappa Perfect Series 6-1/2" Component System these are 249.99$, I was also looking at the Image Dynamic CXS62 (1/2 ohm component set)/CXS64 these are around 299.99$ though. A few Diamond Audio I was also looking at. I'll most likely be getting a 2channel amp and powering these components obviously. Suggestions/Ideas and recommendations are welcome.

JBL GTO1201.1 on ebay.

For your amps have you considered Hifonics. They carry power and are pretty inexpensive. I used a Mono ZUES to power up 3 12" JL W3's. It did it with ease and it should be enough for a JL W7. For components check out the JL or Focal component sets. Their 6.5" component sets with a 1" soft dome tweeters are great.

I was looking at the Hifonics Brutus BX1606D amp. But i'm still unsure. Which model JL/Focal components are good, for my price range of 250$ and under? How good/reliable are those JBL amp's? Can anybody vouch for them?

Amp? or Components? Amp I would love a JL 1000/1 but I am pretty sure I will NOT find one for under 500$, and my budget is 350$.

I've tried those model P6002 amps befor. I did not like them much, they just couldn't handle much, and would heat up quick and would get ridiculously hot/overheat.
