Hmm, looks simple and clean.. Absolutely nothing wrong with that.
Perhaps you should think about making a false floor so your amps and x-overs are flush.

^ yeah. Looks better then my stereo stuff kuz I dont have any, but I couldnt go without the loss of my trunk. Maybe mount them on the side, or head to the store and pick up a few buckets of resin and fiber glass and go all out if you dont mind loosing your trunk

Re: For the hell of it **PICS**

Thanks guys. It really is a basic set-up. The only thing that I think is "hardcore" about it is that I have 2 RCA Line Amps (Pheonix Gold). My front stage line amp is an OLD piece I have had for A LONG TIME!!! It's called A TBA - "The Balancing Act". It's a 2 piece set - A transmiter and receiver. The Transmiter inputs RCA's from head unit and outputs up to 8 Volts (I think) on a 6 pin DIN cable. The white box you see at the end of amp rack is the receiver which outputs back to RCA's. My sub signal is on another (1 piece) Line amp that is mounted under the dash.

As far as building a false floor I have had ideas about encasing the amps and processors with an acrylic top with fans at each end but I don't have much time these days.....

Re: For the hell of it **PICS**

very nice install!!!

x2 on the trunk usage though. kind of inconvenient if you have a ton of stuff that needs to go in the trunk. i mounted my amp to the side of the sub.

Re: For the hell of it **PICS**

As far as I know it does. I could be wrong....This is the owners manual I got from www.phoenixgold.com ftp://208.187.38.55/Phoenix_Gold/Man...structions.pdf
And it is a balanced line amp. Mine is so old that they don't have an owner's manual for mine. LOL the only difference between the one I have and the one on the link is the cable they use to transmit the signal. Thanks again for everyone's coments on my stuff...

Here's a better pic of the receiver


...and the Old School Cable

Re: For the hell of it **PICS**

Are you using the ground lift at all?? Did it help or is it not needed due to clean signal anyway?

Re: For the hell of it **PICS**

It does not make a difference in sound. And by the way my doors look like the doors in your avitar ,minus the HUGE Mid-bass at the rear of the door. What is that a 6.5", 8" or a 10" ?
