My plans totally changed, before I was going to use the 9Kv.2, but now I'm selling that. I am going to use CDT Audio speakers and subwoofers, and Blaupunkt Class T amplifiers.
I just ordered 1 CDT Audio 12" EF Series Subwoofer, it's a prototype, no one else will have one for a while.... :cool: It has a carbon fiber cone and it's supposed to have some awesome SQ. This will go in the trunk.
I also just ordered 2 CDT Audio 8" EF Series midbass/subs. These ones. The 12" looks exactly like those, except bigger and it plays lower (of course). These will go in front, in front of the seats in a custom fiberglass enclosure.
Then, these will go in the stock locations in the doors. CDT Audio 5.25" Slim EF Series component set. Still need to order this.
I will be using the stock Bose headunit, using a PAC AOEM-GM32 to utilize its preouts to hook up the amps. The amps will be: the Blaupunkt PA275 (already have), to power the front component set. 2 Blaupunkt PA2150s to power the front midbass and the subwoofer.
Should sound pretty sweet. :twisted:

| well... have you got the boxes built yet??? I wanna see it all put together! ;-) Are you going to have a video of your system blowing the clothes off some (preferrably very hot) girls sitting in the front seats? :-) that'd be a sight to see! |

no...no enclosures have been built yet. This won't exactly be a system to blow clothes off, only about 900wrms to everything (comps, midbass, sub).

| just buggin you brando, I know you just got the woofers. but they look very nice indeed. SQ over SPL this time? I've come to the conclusion that a system that sounds GOOD is much, much more challenging to construct than a system that sounds LOUD! But its also much more pleasing to listen to after the fact aswell! |

No disagreement here.

well....I would say both are equally challenging.
To exceed 170db is quite an accomplishment....of course you can't listen to it without earplugs...so what's the point? :lol:
Sound Quality is where it is at for me....

| At some point, someone is going to build a car stereo that outputs so much SPL that its going to make a rip in the space/time contiuum and they'll step out of thier car into the 1800's or something ;-) back to the future pt.4... |

Hi Brando, hello All,
Quote: Check it out!
A question about this one.
Pic is close for detail, but too close to show placement. Is it in the door, kick panel, pillar, or somewhere else?
Regards, Norm |

If you look at this one:
You'll see it's part of the door panel, you can see it's by the side view mirror in this picture:
