new toy *pics*

Look what the UPS Guy brought me this morning...
I know it's not much but still wanted to share it with you guys.
Now all I need is a car to put it in..
BTW, its an ARC AUDIO 2050XXK 50X2. From what I've read on the forums it puts out more like 60x2 so that should be plenty to feed my quart tweeters... Got the arc cause I want to run it active, and it has the multiplier feature and got a good deal on it. Only $170!!
BTW, my mids should be getting around 240+ watts, so it should sound really nice.
PICS:

UPDATE!
I installed it in my best friend's car, and ran the tweets with it. He has Seas Lotus Reference components with the alumminum version of the tweeter, and 2 polk momo amplifiers. One bridged for the mids, and the other one for the tweets. I was somewhat dissapointed, the ARC sounded really good at low volumes and it had alot of power, but at higher volumes it became very hars, even with the gains all the way down. The momo was warmer and crisper. This really pissed me off, since I will be running the arc with MB Quart tweets, which are made out of titanium, and are quite bright. I don't know if I'm keeping it or not. Should I try zapco? Is it worth the upgrade???
PLS HELP!!!!!!!

You sure that your friends deck it not over tuned? because when you turn higher end stuff like that turn the bass down all the way. And use subs for bass not the inside speakers.
