ptcary Posted May 10, 2008 Author Report Posted May 10, 2008 Got some work started on the front speakers. Poor mans 3-way with a center channel. I will be running the 3-ways with passive JL Audio crossovers. New Peerless 5.25" center channel compared with the prefab Pioneer 2.25" center speaker that I had in there. Yep it's big, but its a shielded driver, so the magnet is not really that big! I wanted a shielded driver to keep any magnetic interference away from the factory RKE right behind it. Factory alarm had to be moved to free up some space. Yep, it'll fit, sure, no problem! A quick jigsaw job on some 3/4" poplar, and I made a nice spacer, painted it with Ralph Lauren river rock to match the dashtop. Thats an alarm LED next to it. I glued the Dayton tweeter into a Hifonics tweeter cup from my old component set, screwed it to the dashtop, wired them up passive, 200 hz and up for the mid, and 4K hz and up for the tweeter, and all done! Peerless Vifa TG9 3.5" mids only required a little trimming of the factory dash plastic to get them in. Dayton tweeter flushed into the sail panel. Kicker ssmb6 6.75 midbass waiting to go into the factory door location. PTCary 2003 SMD PT Cruiser 2011 Honda CBR 250R 2010 Mazda 3i Sport MY BUILD LOG

ptcary Posted May 11, 2008 Author Report Posted May 11, 2008 Some more progress this weekend, got the back on, (still needs more screws in it, but its on there with constuction adhesive!) It took me a while to wire the subs as they are all dual voice coils, it all turned out 4 ohms per side of 4 subs, so it'll be perfect for the Crunch amps. Luckily the manual for the subs had wiring diagrams to guide me along, it still drove me crazy! Then I went about stuffing the sucker!...that was actually fun. FEDEX brought the Kinetik battery so I can start getting an idea how to secure it back there. PTCary 2003 SMD PT Cruiser 2011 Honda CBR 250R 2010 Mazda 3i Sport MY BUILD LOG

Forevrbumpn Posted May 12, 2008 Report Posted May 12, 2008 lookin good man even 1500 watts, Iam sure thats gonna pound good I have a ritual called "terminator". I crouch in the shower in the "naked terminator" pose. With eyes closed I crouch for a minute and visualize either Arnie or the guy from the 2nd movie. I then start to hum the T2 theme. Slowly I rise to a standing position and open my eyes. It helps me get through my day. The only problem is if the shower curtain sticks to my terminator leg. It sorta ruins the fantasy.
