low end... sony has nice head units though..

only thing id ever buy jbl is house speakers. i had 4 jbl 8's and some stweeters i bought from a store as a home theatre system and they were good. but i wouldnt run them in car audio.

i worked in a movie theathre where all we had was jbl speakers/subs etc and it sounds wicked nice.
my sub works great for me atm.
just need to tweek it for a lil more bass on country/rock music and its perfect for me.
i dont want loud/annoying. just crisp and clean.
