Default My sound system installation complete!

well i have a couple things to do but it is pretty much finished. i believe this is my first post in this forum. i finally got around to installing my system, this is what i installed:

A6004T-4CH AMP, A8000T-MONO SUB AMP, MG CUSTOM ENCLOSURES 350Z BOX(DUAL TENS), ALUM10Q 10" SUB X 2, AMD60Q 6.5" MID BASS DRIVERS, ABC600T 6.5" COMPONENTS
MISCELLANEOUS INSTALL(AUDIOBAHN):
CE1500 15' 2-CH EXPERT GRADE SIGNAL TRANSFER CABLE, CE1540 15' 4-CH EXPERT GRADE SIGNAL TRANSFER CABLE, CTCAP10 CAPACITOR X 2, ABR100T BASS BOOST CONTROLLER, ADM100T DIGITAL VOLT DISPLAY X 2, ABAT0N NEG. BATTERY POST, ABAT0P POS. BATTERY POST, ARTRM4 CRIMPLESS RING TERMINAL X 4, ADBC2AGU DISTRIBUTION BLOCK X 2, AN145Q FUSE HOLDER X 1, ANL140 140 AMP FUSES, 4AWG 2 AMP PWR KIT


the sub box i used can be purchased here http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll...sPageName=WDVW or by contacting michael at mlg9770@comcast.net
the build quality of the box is awesome!!! it fits extremely well under the strut tower bar. there is no need to secure it with brackets because it is not going anywhere!! the carpet used is very thick, high quality stuff! it matches pretty well with the factory carpet. you can get the box in vinyl for a little bit more. there is also an option for a neat 12 inch enclosure. for the price you just can't beat this box!! btw, the 2 10" audiobahn alumQ subs rock in the box. i faced them in to save airspace because i wanted two subs. the baskets would have taken up too much airspace the other way. the bass is very accurate and tight, just the way i like it!

because of the the appearance of the subs, amps and interconnects i bought, my simple install turned out to be an eyepleaser! i am very happy with how it came out. i have not tuned it yet because i didn't have the time prior to going to Zfest in orlando but it sounds real good as it is right now. a little tuning should make it just right. anyway here are a few pics. i 'll snap some more later!

ZWEET setup man. One thing, what kind of alarm do you run and do you drive your car often? I would love to do something like that but my fear of it being seen would be like jackpot those like to steal other people's stuff.

i have a viper 690. it has treated me very well. the proximity sensor is a must! i am military and live just near the base i am stationed at. most of the time my Z is in the garage or on base. theft rate on base is very low, so my Z is pretty safe.

i just caught a mistake i made in my installation, well my buddy did. i wired my dual 6 ohm subs in a way that only one voil coil was playing on each side! oops!!! luckily the subs seem to be playing well still. the bass is a whole lot better now that it is wired right!! that is what happens when you work damn near non-stop to get something done before a show, i was so tired i didn't catch it! thanks for the compliments!

Z-INCOGNITO: the Z33 is finally back on, did while at Zfest!

not that i think audiobahn is the greatest company because i don't but the prices and the look (color of lighting/stlye of amps and subs) of the equipment were the determining factors. i knew the audiobahn equipment would go well with the theme i have going and would also be above average quality electronics IMO.

thanks for the compliments!

here are three night pics of my sound system. i have added the digital volt meter displays for both amps and the bass boost controller for the sub amp. looks hot at night, at least i think so! all i have left to do is a kenwood 5.1 processor and a center channel speaker!
