I've got the Cerwin-Vega 10" Vega 104 Subwoofer for lows....the Hi-Fonics 320 watt bridgable amplifier and 4-gauge Monster Cable wiring. I used to use the Pioneer 8500 CD receiver, but now using a DIN unit in a Double DIN setup doesn't seem like the brightest idea to me. I dunno. Anyway, everything else's the same! With the right box, that 10" Vega confuses even the most asute audiophile into believing I've got a 15" in my trunk! Now that's a cool setup! No TV's yet but someday it's a possiblility!!!!!!

I'm waiting to put my Kicker 12" Solobaric that I had in my old car into the TL. Also, have a Punch 150 with a 1 Farad (no name) capacitor. It doesn't sound like a lot of wattage, but that capacitor makes a huge difference. I need to get quality wiring for the system - can't wait!

Well, It looks like I am going to have the famous street Effectz install my system. He suggested the Focals for the Front. I am going to get the 165w. For the rear speakers I am going to leave stock and use just as fill in. For the Sub I am deciding on the 8inch or 10inch alumapro. I would power these speakers with a Soundstream Picasso Amp.

I am not looking to outpound anything. I enjoy listening to music in my car, I am in the car just about 7 days a week. I want great quality sound for in the car.

Haha, you thought it was stock! Its an Alumapro BP-10. I doubt you can buy just the box since box is made specifically for that speaker.

I put on black chrome emblems recently and since I have the Mugen grill on front I had an extra black chrome front emblem. So I took off the chrome emblem on the sub (previously was a trunk emblem) and put on the much bigger black chrome one.

That box is really cool! Anyone here build custome boxes? I've got a Cerwin-Vega V-104 10" Sub that puts out 300 Watts RMS and 600 Watts Max. The thing really has good low bass like 18db range maybe even 17db and I forget how high its frequency can extend. I can check if you need it.

Vision, you can't buy the black chrome emblems seperate from Acura, you have to buy the whole kit. The regular chrome trunk emblem I used to have on there was $10 or so.
