Better still get yaself a single din MUTANT!

I have focal k2 powers at the minute in the rear, as you know and Focal V slims in the front. Changing the fronts to the Morels with custom door builds. Hmmm...

Dude, Out with the JVC - they are pony. Get yourself a Pioneer HD3 Navi

http://www.morelhifi.com/products/mob_3way_elate_limited.html I just bought myself a set. Anyone know anything about them and the guide price. Just wanna check I am not paying over the top before I hand over the wonga tomorrow! Cheers Chris.

The cost is for remodelling the enclosure in fibreglass. Building a strong enough steel reinforcement cage to hold the sub Sound deadening Sound wading The sub panel Up holstered in matching trim And finally to fit the sub into place. £400 plus the sub. (each side) So my 10W7 cost me £400 each. so about £1600 for the pair supply and fit.

Here are some pics to dwell over!

Well I have a Creative X-fi Platenium series for the sound card. So I'd say (without being an expert) that the card is more than capable. However I am not using the PC for my primary source of Audio. The new Pioneer head unit takes any sound from the PC as an AV-in. I would use the headunit primarily for the sound either via the Hard drive, Ipod, cd etc. The PC has pretty much been made redundant but still a cool feature to have as I can use the Wifi on it to surf the net etc. I was told that a reason to why I have seen gains from the headunit is that the voltage out is higher than a PC soundcard. I dont understand this myself just passing it on!

Well I got her back today and will post pics tomoro - promise! Looks unreal. But the biggest thing is the difference in sound. Boy oh boy is the sound richness improved 30% from the PC. BIG BIG Changes. I had a word with him and he recommended Genesis Absolute or Focal Utopia (Less power more crispness) for the doors. Thing is Im worried when all this will stop! I have never really got on with Rainbow btw.

Ah didnt see it was a rag top. Hm JL Subs are very very good. Orion are more powerful but dont deliver the same unique quality. Thing of Nadal (Orion) v Federer (JL Audio) Nadal all power v Federer all finesse

Hmmm.... Well the next step which I am sure will be taken before xmas would be to have custom made door builds. I can get the door builds done for approx £300 per door plus speakers Possibly Merrells or even Apline F1 if I have the wonger. If not what would you suggest? Probably go for something like 2x3way speakers in the door. As for Centrafuse I just dont get on with the whole PC thing. I dunno what it is specifically - just I dont get on with it. Not sure how they sealed the sub boxes. Fibreglass mouldings with lots n lots of sound deadening Foill. They have packed the sub boxes with sound wadding now also to stop any vibrations. The sub boxes are not permanent and can be changed back to stock. Although he recommended that the cost involved that I am best off taking the subs and amp out and replacing them with cheapo gear. More cost effective.

I return my car back to the audio shop for some upgrades. I have toyed with the PC for long enough - using Centrafuse. But a car PC just isnt right for music playing. I never really got on with it. Time for a change. http://www.creativecarsounds.co.uk/niss ... stall.html (a reminder) I am leaving the PC and all of the current audio equipment in the car but am adding a Pioneer AVIC-HD3-II http://www.pioneer.co.uk/uk/products/25 ... index.html All of the audio will go through the car stereo with an auxillary input from the PC to the headunit. So there has been a substantial amount of rewiring and spraying etc. Cant wait! I will post pics tomorrow. I am also thinking Focal K2 powers fitted to the rear shelf. What you think?

I lie 2 x 10W7s

Maz Take a look at the link below. Its my Zed. I had 2x13W7 fitted behind each seat both run from a JL AMP. Running Focal K2 powers from the rear and Focal Vslim from the front. http://www.creativecarsounds.co.uk/niss ... stall.html

I cant remember the exaxt cost but there wasnt much left out of £10k. Sub enclosures were £300 each Screen moulding was £400. (yes removable) Amp shelf and pc housing £300 2x JL audio W7s Focal k2 power in the rear Componenets with the tweeter mounted on the amp shelf Focal V slims Transflective screen Power Cap JL Amp Alpine PDX 4 channel amp PC wiring etc. I think it was about £7k but I cant remember
