The plan for this install is;

Pioneer 8200SD headunit

Rockford Fosgate Power 6.5" components (for now)

Audiosystems XION160.2 or XION100.2 midrange amp

Audiosystems XION 280.2 bass amp (1480wrms or there abouts)

2 x Ascendant Audio Arsenal 10" subs, custom S4 coils

Chord company Rumour speaker cable

KnuKonceptz Fleks power cable throughout

Processor - unknown yet, but leaning towards either the Helix/Brax DSP or the Mosconi 6to8

Components will be replaced with either the AudioSystems XION 165's or the Helon 165's or the Ascendant Audio Havoc 6.5" components

Subs will be in a 4th order bandpass box that I will be trialling out and see what I think of them

Let the build commence!!!

First up on the install list was a Pioneer MVH 8200 headunit (from memory)...

Its a GREAT little headunit...bit fiddly with the rotary command and takes a while getting used to it...but a good little headunit nontheless!

HOWEVER, the problem with this headunit, is, just like the JVC AVX's, the unit itself sticks out too far...I HATE this with a passion, and had I of known this prior to buying the unit, it may have swayed me to something else...me being me...modified the fascia to allow the headunit to sit further back lol!

The subs being used in this application are the Ascendant Audio Arsenal 10s

Reason for 10s was purely for the fact we can do more with them within the confines of a Corsa boot - bandpass, sealed, ported etc etc

Reason for Arsenals, due to their SQL properties...they are an AWESOME smooth sounding driver (just like every other Fi and AA driver lol)...but they are very efficient, very smooth and drop pretty low with their 18mm of xmax each way!

Specs on the box - 0.4cuft sealed sections and 2.4cuft ported section tuned to approx 65hz. So a 3:1 ratio. 49sqin of port area

More tomorrow!
