Post Components
What kind of components do you have ( or have you had) and do you like them?

As my sig says, I am running Memphis 15-PRS6 components atm. They actually surprised me. I wasn't expecting much, but they will play loud and clean. Not the best set I have ever owned (that would either go to my Diamond M5's or my Focal K2's), but way better than my expectations. The reason I am asking this is because I am planning on switching the Memphis to the rear and putting something a little better up front. There are just so many options now a days that it is a hard decision. Just looking for some opinions.

They sound really good now that I've tuned them better

I'm waiting on my Alpha Comps so I can't really put an opinion in at the moment =/

MB Quart Q-Series at the moment. I've run a lot of different shit though. I have a set of old top of the line Rainbow 6.5s somewhere. If you get the install right it's insane how they sound with a high quality deck off a good amp like my Zapco :P.

My Qs sound awesome though and I've had them 3 years and no problems. Components are something I'll pay a lot for from a dealer. It's personal preference in how it sounds, so a dealer that can let you sit and switch between them is handy :P.
