Stereo System Complete.

So I spent 13 hours yesterday working on my system. I finally got it all done though.

This is what it consists of now.

Pioneer Avic-N1 in dash DVD/Navigation receiver.
4- 5X7 Polk Audio DB570 speakers.
2 - 12" JBL GTO 120 subwoofers
JBL GTO 75.4 amp to power 4 door speakers.
JBL GTO 1201.1 Subwoofer amp to push 2 subwoofers.

I had to build/carpet little box to mount amps to. Running wire takes a long time. Especially when you are wiring door speakers from amp. But running wire in general is a very time consuming process.

My goal was to add bass and clarity and not use up any more room than what is provided behind the 3rd row seats. MISSION ACCOMPLISHED. This is the 6th system I have done and I must pat myself on the back and say that it sounds better than any system I've done up until now.

Here's a couple pictures from last night when I first got it done.

This is some trick to tell you so you can steal my stuff...

JK... actually the 2 speaker boxes I bought seperately.. I built the box in the middle it's all independent and squeezed snuggly in there. It's a tight fit but I can still lay the 3rd row seat down and then push the whole thing forward or tilt it forward to get to the jack. The 3 pieces aren't connected so with enough elbow grease the speaker boxes can be jimmy'd out and and everyhing will easily move around. I left enough wire under the amp box to be able to move the amps about 2 feet foward.

But yes, I wanted to make sure I could ge to the jack still..... and it was a extremely important to pack sound and amps in the area behind the 3rd row so I wouldn't lose any sitting area. I feel sorry for the poor bastid that's gonna sit in that 3rd row when I pump the volume up to 55 !! Hee hee
