i'm on my droid as well, but i have swype so it's very fast oh and for speakers, it really comes down to your budget. i recommend companies called diamond audio or hertz audio. both awesome companies and always have been and best bang for buck from $150 a pair up to $1k+ for components and they are very efficient and i have not heard better speakers. how do i know? i sell them all day long (on weekends when i work) but yea just figure out where you wanna be price wise and i'll point you in the right direction.
the second video in my sig. has 1 12" diamond audio subwoofer. listen to it and tell me how you like it.

I kind of have to agree with 6 speed because that's a really good site IMO.
But you have any other suggestions? I'm kind of thinking of just getting rid of my sub if I put in speakers and amplify them with enough power to get more than enough bass. Got any speakers in mind for that?

Actually, let me clarify. I wouldn't invest too much in Sonic for 'high end' equipment or the rest of the mass etailers. However there are sources that Are legitimate with full warranty and no skating around the rules.

+1 that's what i was trying to say, my dad knows the owners of alot of these large online retailers and they are nothing but shady (i will not name the companies) look for a local authorized dealer for the brand you plan to go with and find out if they're reputable and how their prices are. if you were local to me, you'd be in good hands. idk about your area though where ever you are.

The tens in my door running to 20 flat will disagree. Although this is an isolated case. However for him, if not wanting to go a full sub route, this could certainly help...

I ship a few items ..

Dynaudio
Rainbow
Zapco
TRU Technology
Cascade
Jehnert
DLS
Straightwire
Etc.

But ONLY if the client does not have a local dealer. All of which has full consent from said manufacturers though. I however do not believe in running a 'click to buy' operation. I tend to think my clients deserve better.

Absolutely knew what ya meant, just tossing out all the options.

We have done a fair amount of them with the Dyn MW182. For three way and stealth - the MW172s. Works wonders for the G37s too !
