Now these new cars blow putting in door speakers when you want to wire them up at the main connector at the door for easy removal so this is how i wire them when there is no room to drill thru

Did someone say my name? Haha, I gots a demo bitches, yesterday. Rick came over to set his stuff up with the DD1(which is a different nightmare altogether) and I got to hear the Terrain in action. It is super clean and for no sound deadening, the thing doesn't have hardly any rattles......yet. Some, including myself, were worried about port noise, well rest assured, there is none. We just had the front soundstage turned on, and the subs going. The Bostons keep up perfectly fine with the big Macintosh. If you guys ever get to hear one of these amps, they are old school A/B goodness. The DCs have great impact and are DEADLY accurate with his box. The crazy thing is, I thing it hurt wide with the Windows UP than down. The low end extension was better with the windows down, but it FELT and sounded louder Windows open.

Im sure I'll get to hear it several more times, and I'll see him at the comp in a few weeks Is a great build and a very nice vehicle, the dude is anal as hell about small details. That's about all I.have for now.
