I like the VU meter idea or an EQ maybe. Damn that is in a retarded spot, can you move the HU down and then do something in the top slot?

I would use the open space you want and extend it forward and down slightly to mount the GPS that way you build it to look flush but its slightly extended enough so that you have the CD player and the GPS mounted nicely.

I would look at Mechman I believe he built Steve's alts and he is a partner on this site so you can contact him from here just go to the Mechman page and ask over there should find your info. You can also check out Mike Singer or Excessive Amperage. BTW what you're doing is powerful keep it up can't wait to see pics of this thing in action.

Holy shit that is cool.

You can do both. The XS battery can become your main battery or a secondary batt.

I would go with the Alpine MRP-M500

I ran a Kicker ZX1000.1 to mine and it beat the shit out of the poor 8. Unless that Planet Audio is an old school amp the new stuff is bs. I would go with the RF but something from their Power series.

There's nothing wrong with the Type R's I would get 2 more Type R's since you already have 2 and go with 4 but make sure you have the space to do it properly and the electrical to back 2000w

A small metropolitan city?

okay that makes sense. and yeah hopefully nathan will help clear up anything From how I understood it IIRC when he announced the group buy was that the XP is made for those of us who want to play for longer periods of time like demo's to use them in our battery banks for strictly that reason.

Im going to troll on you for second. My mother has a masters in accounting. Grant we both live in michigan...accountants are not on high demand..when I say this...I troll ya from experience....thats not a good field to go for. I have to agree very shakey career banking is give or take my mom is in accounting and makes phenomenal money but she has friends with the same degree and more knowledge struggle to keep a job. Good luck in your future if you make it bankers make awesome money but it's easy to end up out of work.

Speaking of which you make a good point. ATTENTION: I will be in Vegas in May for the AccessData conference so Vegas bassheads need to come out of the woodworks

I always found having a degree in computers keeps my options open for whatever I make it. My first 6 months out of college I was making money as a consultant with my own hours now I work for a support firm which supports one of the largest law firms in the country. It works out great because we do trial set up and shadowing so I get to travel a lot. Only downside is I am on call 24/7 which sucks when we are at trial but when things are calm I can work on my own projects or go up to the shop and make some side money. If ever I wanted to I could always go back to consulting no steady paycheck but the money is right when the work is there.

That's actually weird if your laptop is playing low as well.

My Atrix is actually louder than my iPod with no enhancements. What kind of phone are you using.

My major in college was Computer Engineering went to FAMU. I got a job as an IT guy plus I run my own little side business repairing and fixing PC's plus I was able to get a part time job doing Car Audio so that's always a plus. Challenging? Yes. Fun? Yes. Great Money? Hell Yes.

Wow she's a beaut Love the set up.

you dirty dirty huer you.

Car, and trunk dimensions would be a great help for him to determine what he has to work with as far as size and look goes.

A whole hellava lot better than I thought it would. I mean it is no Steve Meade shop system and won't compare to the one we are building at my shop but it gets the job done nice bass and sounds clean and it satisfies me for what I need it to do. Plus since its not earth shattering loud my neighbors don't talk shit anymore about the volume level.

Talk to 412CVX he designed one my single 8 and it sounds amazing.

Specs say 8's should be tuned between 30-40 hz. The encolsure 412CVX designed for me is tuned to 33hz and I love it.

No its Black Tweed I use it for any build I do in black where I don't use leather, suede or vinyl. I don't really like carpet so I found this stuff at a Car Upholstery store near me and it looks really good plus it's reasonably priced not as cheap as carpet but much nicer IMHO.

my problem was the little stereo didn't really get loud and when I work on the Civic I usually disconnect the battery so most times I had to grab some headphones and that always caused issues so this + an old receiver I had made for one nice sounding system. I can hear it over all of my tools running and the bass sounds nice.

Thanks!
