Looks like a killer set up, why didnt you go with an Alpine head unit and the Imprint tuning system?

Why waste money on good rears? Isn't it pointless on a Z?

Hes doing all his processing from the audio control units which are alot better then the imprint software. The imprint is ok for an average system but really isnt that great if you see exactly what it does.

Yeah if it ever comes out haha. I might just go with a 4xs for crossovers and a decent headunit until the ms8 comes out. I think i will get great sound and i need bluetooth and ipod control im on the road too much without. Driving on the phone alot with a 6 speed sucks. YOu get yours fired up yet?

i agree in getting rid of the cap, all this good equipment and then a cap (I hate caps). Go for the Kinetik HC600 http://www.kinetikaudio.com/hc600.asp Most shops retail it at $169.99 even though the site says $199.99

We use these things day in and out at the shop and they seem to never go bad and just work great as a system add on
