i did all the install myself, even dynamated the whole car. i haven't had a chance to upgrade the battery yet but that is next. it sounds amazing the deck as alot of adjustment and it images very well. you can crank the volume almost all the way and it is clear and the bass does not drain out the mids or highs.

I got the Z6's and LOVE them. Amazing power handling. You might consider getting a pair of door pods. I put them in and it made a big difference.

LOVE the component and amp choices. +1 on pods or kicks for the comps. Will open up your front stage. I'm not criticizing so much as offering what I would have done differently, but I would have done a JL W6 sub (instead of the W3), or other more SQ oriented subwoofer. I'm sure it still sounds great regardless. Good job!

BTW, What shift **** is that for the a/t?

clean and tidy, very nice

while boston is definetly not to my listening taste and with the high mounted tweeters, i can imagine the highs being a little harsh...so i toot hik if oyu can mount things in kicks off axis, it would yield a slightly smoother response

other htan that, i just htink with such classy looking amps, its a shame they are fully hidden

There are about 15 bolts that attach the metal plate to the car - they come out with a little effort and the whole space opens up.

How did you mount the amp in the driver's side compartment? I am going to be installing an amp this week and need some tips! Your install looks really clean, hopefully mine turns out as well.
