Default New setup complete!

Just got done installing my system. Was a good bit of work but well worth it in the end. Heres what I put in.

Pioneer x920bt
Polk Audio MM6501 components
RE SE 10 inch subwoofer in a zenclosure box
US AMPS MD-1D amp

I wasnt going for anything crazy, just a good sounding front with some bass. The tweeter location turned out great, they sound awesome up there. Now some pics.
What do you guys think?

Looks really good man.

Where did you mount the crossovers? Did you amp the speakers? How do you like the zenclosure box? im thinking about ordering the single 12" one with the amp rack

Thanks! I mounted the crossovers in the kick panels, the crossovers weren't too big so they fit nicely there. All i had to do was run the speaker wire from the mid bass through the molex plug in the door and drop the tweeter wire down to it. It worked out great. Yea I hooked them up to a Kicker DX300.2. It powers them well and sounds great. The enclosure is nice for a sealed setup. It has nice tight bass, a different sound from a ported setup. Its still loud and thumps. It fits perfectly under the strut bar and looks clean.

Nice setup! how are you liking the Pioneer X920bt? I'm thinking of getting this one or the Avic 3300bt.

great system... how do you like the tweeter location? Seems like the sound would resonate well off the windshield. I should have gone that route vs. destroying both of my sail panels.

Thanks, yea they bounce off the windshield and sound great. I was thinking about drilling out the sail panels but ended up just doing the a pillars because it was pretty simple.
