I'm looking at the Polk dX, Infinity Kappa or maybe the Sony ES Xplod (dumb ass name & thankfully that horrendous red would be hidden).

I am very happy with my Polk dX, however, I've got it in a proper Q-logic box so I can't vouch for its performance in a custom enclosure in a spare tire.

I'd stay away from the Xplod line. I have no experience with the products, but stuff like that sounds like an "all style and no substance" kind of thing.

Anyone remember the bit from that movie, I think it was Judge Reinhold playing a stereo salesman selling an inferior (but more macho-looking) stereo to a gullible young couple... Was that in "Ruthless People"? Anyway, every time I see ads for the Xplod stuff, that's what I think of.
