Anyone Heard Of these brands???
RE: Anyone Heard Of these brands???
Diamond Audio is VERY good stuff for SQ and moderate power. Old school PG is good also. You may want to look into Ample Audio, CDT, ALPINE, JL AUDIO, Powerbase, Kicker, Directed Audio, Pioneer Premier, Fusion Audio, Lanzar, DD AUDIO, MTX , JBL, KenWood, Sound Stream, MA Audio, Visonic, Memphis Audio, just to name a few good brands. Some can be expensive, others as better for the buck. I'm personally using Ample Audio (EXONIC) in my van and have no complaints to date.

Treo is a great woofer company, but did not have much success with the coaxial line they offered.
Phoenix Gold= Decent product at a decent price.
Diamond Audio= Notch above Phoenix Gold.
Niche= Distributed by Harry Rabadi (Rabadi and Sons) out of Phoenix Arizona. Another mass produced line the offers no innovation.
One thing to keep in mind with car audio. 68% of all product is made in the same plant, in the same way. For example......
MA Audio/Visonik/Clif Designs/Ultra Linear/Mobile Authority are all the same company (I am not mentioning about 8 other lines they have) all made with the same specs. Owned by Sameer Aboabdo under the Anaba Group umbrella
Audiobahn/Alphasonic/Swiss Audio/Dub/Digital Audio/Ichiban all the same design (of course different exteriors) owned by Sameers brother Nasser. (Audiobahn was sold to Nasser by Sameer....OOPS)
It is shady sometimes in the audio game, just be sure to research what you want. Ever need a good amp at a good price, try Crossfire, they are directly owned by a manufacturing plant.
High end amps/subs/components
Zapco,32 plus years in the game, unparalled quality. (all lines)
Morel (mids/highs)
Treo (woofers/amps)
Pioneer (stop laughing, the new amps are very nice)
Alpine (higher line stuff)
CDT (mids/highs)
Boston (always a safe bet)
JL (all lines, if you just have the cash to burn, better off with the Zapco amps)
