Default JL Audio Components/Amps?

Hi -

I'm going to upgrade the audio system for my 2001 S4. I'm currently looking at JL Audio XR525 components (front), JL XR525 coax rear, JL 10w3 Sub and the new JL 500/5 amp. Can anyone provide any feedback on the JL stuff?

Thanks - David

Default i had the same kind of impression about their seps, but their austin mini demo car...

is probably my favorite sounding car. and it was the old mid's and high's, not these newly engineered ones. i spent almost an hour in that car one day and good god that car sounds good and by no means has $1k speakers in the car.

Default JL XR Components are made in Germany...

The XR525CS were my choice after listening to Infinity Kappas, MBQ, Polk, and a few others. The tweets were what did it for me. Smoothest highs of all the component sets I listened to.

Default You are going to have to work to get the componenets to fit....

It is going to be a really tight fit, the magnet is really big and hits the window runner.
