Thanks. That decoder is a Dolby Digital and DTS 5.1 decoder (similar to the home AC3 receiver). It has 6 channels for Front, Rear, Center and Sub. It sounds much much better with the center channel turn on ....... It is mainly used for my DVD system for surround sound

Wampum: the amps are Sherwood DTS 5.1 Amps (the black one) and MA Audio HC1002 (chrome one). Rear and Center are JBL, front Tweeter is Pioneer. Sub, you already see, Kicker Comp VR

The sun visor monitor, I think is Santeca 4" and the Headrest is Alpine 6.5"... both install by Ron (streeteffectz)

Thanks

When count everything including all the connector and stuffs, total cost me close to $2000 not include labor since i did this myself ..... It cost me that much because all the RCA cable are Monster cables (about 45 bucks each), 8AWG Power cable are also monster (4 bucks a foot) and 4AWG and speaker cable are Lightning. All connector are platinum and gold plated. All the distribution block, Fuse block, fuses, battery terminal are Lightning and I use Circuit breaker rather than fuse holder at the battery.

hey Kenny! gotta ask ya, are those center mb-quarts speakers tweeters? and just tweeters?

-because i was thinking of doing my center channel with a pair of coaxial 3.5" mb-quarts right below my headunit. the only problem with that is that i might be really tight in room! so, my next option would be tweeters. the only problem with just tweeters is that i'm afraid that i won't get the full range on sound. what do you think? and if my options are gonna be tweeters,,, which one should i get?

-by-the-way, i like what you've done to the car so far

ArchAcuraTL: No it's not MB. It's JBL 2.5 midrange and tweeter (2 ways not just tweet). I don't think there are any speaker (at least i can't find any) that fit into the sunglass holder unless you do some major modification to that holder. and specially the rear surround channel that i have in the rear pillar for ear level surround. The rear pillar only has about 7/8 inch clearance and i don't want just a tweeter. Don't just get the tweet for center. You need extra Midrange. The JBL i have is a 2 ways 2.5 inch and handle up to 60Wrms, plenty for center. The depth requirement is less than 1 inch. I stop by Ron (StreetEffectz) and he loved it when i have the center turn on .... It really make a big different
