audio/video setup progress... *pictures*

I've done most of the audio/video work on my car to this date. It's not fully completed as there's some more work that needs to be done but the main components are all in. (don't tell me "this looks unfinished", I know! It is! )

Head: Clarion VRX775VD (tuner, mp3, dvd, dual-zone, 7" screen, etc.)

EQ: Clarion EQS746 (7-Band, 7v pre-out)

Front: SoundStream Tarantula 6.5" Components

Rear: SoundStream Tarantula 6.5" 2-Way Speakers

Subwoofers: 2 x 12" Clarion PXW1251 (500w rms, dvc 2ohm)

Speakers Amplifier: Clarion APX4360

Subwoofers Amplifiers: 2 x Clarion DPX1800

Capacitor: SoundStream SCX-4 (waiting for delivery...)

Wiring: Audison

Battery: Optima Yellow Top w/ Tsunami Competition Terminals (with voltage display)

Others: Playstation2 w/ wireless controllers, Clarion Wireless Headphones (2), A/V switch to plug my laptop, 10.4" TV will be mounted in the trunk, custom trunk setup/sub box, dynamated doors/trunk/rear deck, etc...










Watcha think?

sure the subs are not the best out there but they do the job just fine... i mean, if i was going for SQ I wouldve chosen something else but with the plexiglass and everything my setup definitly isnt the best for SQ from the start.

i tuned the system though and it sounds pretty good. for the price the clarions really are not a bad choice.. they keep up with subs twice their price...

plus i got an awesome deal

now i just gotta get rid of all the little annoying rattles that are so hard to isolate lol.

Im pretty new here. Im assuming you had the factory bose in your car. To bypass the amp was it basically a few rewire of the whole car?

how hard was it to build the subwoofer box or wall you could say? Im very interested in doing a set up similar but just not as many amps and such. I just the a little square box in the trunk is ugly.
