awesome job I'm tempted to do mine but a little scared to mess things up in the car I found a ridiculous shop that does some great stuff at very good prices in orange county will definitely take my time and do things right.. when I'm done I will have 10 speakrs staged to perfection. I wanted to go active but its to pricey so I will go passive with some old school amps orion hcca series the old red one 1200 rms stale at 1 ohm for the subs. a zapco either for the pillar tweets and a ppi arts series to drive 2 seven inch cdt components up front. I will also add a pair of centerstage tweets for perfect imaging. I will runn all of it including the hun to an alpine Tme m740bt with built in bluetooth. no line driver output needed. I heard the cdt audios at a shop with no amp they are ridiculous its just sick. They can handle 200 rms. I have a brand new set of morel elates I will be selling in box never used these go for 1000 bucks they will be on ebay soon.. thanks for the phone conversation nelson your system will be amazing I'm sure.

more pics please

No problem brother. believe me if my friend and i can do it. any of you guys can do it. you just need patience. how much the cdt run for?u sure it will fit the stock location? like i told u earlier i have focal all the way around but not quite satisfied with the sound yet. btw. im using the hub amplifier which is measly 20 watts rms.im waiting for the new alpine pdx amps that are coming out by end of april.
how much does the shop want for your installation?

nelson ill be in orando on business the last week of march on business we should definitely hook up and take a look at your install. pdx huh? I hear nothing but the best reviews but the amps are expensive. your setup is going to be very nice. the shop wants to charge me 250 for both doors they r cdt audio dealers. the cdt es07.1 run about 1 grand and when I heard them they r worth it . I will add some sound staging pillar tweeters and a custom xover they call upstage and then also run a centerstage to bring a concert like staging. I'm going with companies that are more sq driven, not as much on the marketing. *ot to take anything away from focal. They make grat stuff. the morel elates I have also run about 1 grand for the 6 1/5 component set they run about 1400 I believe these are not cheap but are very nice. if u or anyone wants my brand new set let me know ill entertain offers before they go on ebay.

Nelson,


I live in Winter Park, and would enjoy meeting you sometime when you get everything finished so I can see how the system works. I'm still on the fence about doing a system in my car, so it would be helpful to check out what you have done.... the Vehicle Hub in particular.

I work for sbarro inside the orlando fashion square mall.u can come check out the install whenever u want to..ill be there tonight until 9:00pm. I'm not really sure when I'm gonna finish the job, but everything is working now..i really want to get the m-technic kit asap..unless u have previous alpine components this mod can be very expensive. I had the alpine nav, cd changer,dvd changer, processor,and other alpine stuff and manage to spent $2500..$400 for the hub, $700 for the navtv interface(paid too much, can actually get it for about $450 online), $750 in focal speakers, $150 in the lc8, $200 for a speed pulse generator for the navigation and other misc.and i still need to buy new amps and get a shop to do a box for the subs.
