Very impressive! I like the idea of subs in the center console!

My system is currently being installed.
It is all active w/ mids & tweets in the pillars, mid-bass in the doors, and subs in the center console. All amps and wiring are under and behind the rear seat.

Drool I would love to have a system like that but I had to compromise with my budget and keeping things mostly stock looking. I would love to run fully active but I'm only running semi-active

Any of you guys document your installs? Pictures?

I've got tons of pictures it's just too much work for me to post them all somewhere in detail. I'm trying to think if I've publicly documented any of the parts...

^^^ yeah I was trying to look at the pics in your blog but it was taking too long to load at work. I'll try it again here at home.

I understand. I had to buy things as the budget permitted over time. That is why it has taken me nearly one year and couning to get my system installed. It also helps not to break things while you're installing them so you don't have to buy then twice.

That's because of my crappy ISP. My blog is hosted on my own server that I built and unfortunately I have uber crappy upload speeds which makes it slow of people who try to access it. That's why I never really bothered to put more than a couple of posts on there because I figured it was somewhat pointless since it was so slow for everyone.

Yeah had to get myself a decent system before I felt like I could save up for a really nice one. I'm actually really happy with mine I think it turned out really really well considering my budget. The weakest link is my $35 subwoofer though haha. It sounds like a $95 subwoofer. I'd like to have a nice 10" so that it could play the same volume a little cleaner and with less distortion because it would need less excursion to play the same as my 8" due to the larger cone area. I absolutely love my HU and the only thing that I wish I could change about it is I wish it could run fully active. If my HU could do that I'd get another amp and run fully active... but it's not worth putting in an additional processor I don't think.

Did you break something?!?

Yeah my $300 10.1" Touchscreen. I was mocking it up in my modified dash bezel when I dropped it. Chinese technology does not mix well with Italian craftmanship (marble tile). So now I'm installing everything else while I save for another monitor.

6.5" Infinity mid-subs (2) in modded 6X9 speaker boxes. (This is just wrong! But until I build my custom box, it'll have to do)
10" Koiiler DVC sub, (What a stupid name!) in a modded sealed box that used to be for 2 10's. Sliced & diced so that it fits between my buckets, behind the console, with the single 10" (Basically cut the box in 1/2)
Gonna build a custom, smooth flowing fiberglass box, this winter, for the 10" & the mid-subs.
As it is now, this system absolutely pumps! I can irritate the neighbours a block away.
