some audio gear i'm putting in my car...56 k (nga plz)

i've had this stuff lying around my garage. it came out of my old maxima. i've been fighting the urge to install it but now i think i will. the tub is hinged at the front, so i can get to the spare etc. you can see the hinge pins at each corner.

this equipment is no joke. thats a pheonix gold ms 2125 on the right, the monster on the left is an ms 2250. i'll be using a pair of kicker solobaric s15d for my subs.

MS2125 SPECIFICATIONS:

Into 4 ohms @ 12.5/14.4 VDC
125/160 WRMS x 2

Into 2 ohms @ 14.4 VDC
255 WRMS x 2


Bridged into 4 ohms @ 14.4 VDC
510 WRMS x 1

MS2250 SPECIFICATIONS:

Stable to 4 ohms bridged OR 2 ohm stereo

Into 4 ohms @ 12.5/14.4 VDC
250/340 WRMS x 2

Into 2 ohms @ 14.4 VDC
520 WRMS x 2


Bridged into 4 ohms @ 14.4 VDC
1050 WRMS x 1



so i'll be running ~ 1550 watts of rms power. unregulated power supply. i'll be drawing enough current to weld, literally.





with the cover off you can see the two amps with their 3/4" beveled and polished plexiglass cover. above teh amps is an EQ 215x 30 band eq, along w/ an AX 204 18db per octave crossover and a bass cube.


for my front stage i have a pair of 6.5" mb quarts. and a pair of $700 eton 1" tweeters.

now i just need to figure out a head unit to use. probably go w/ an alpine. something w/ 5 volts output.




what do you guys think? questions a comments welcome.

Cool! I like how you can still keep your spare! why dont you customize it to fit and then sell it to another member? I'm sure someone will buy it.
