Madmarky Posted May 25, 2008 Share Posted May 25, 2008 Well after 2 weekends of stripping the car and working in one of the most cramped environments on earth im finally glad its all done. In total ive installed: The new Kenwood double din navigation unit (DNX 5220), Kenwood bluetooth phone kit, Kenwood iPod media cable Focal 6.5" component system speakers Amp Rack: 2 Kenwood Amps FLI 1 Farad power cap Custom Sub enclosure housing 2 10" new series JL subs All in all it went pretty smoothly apart from getting the speaker wires from inside the car into the doors maintaining a standard look. Am very happy with the final result and the stealth amp rack came out a treat. See for yourself... Subbox and headunit: Stealth amp rack - covered up: Stealth amp rack - un covered: Now all i got to do is wait for Veilside too pull there fingers out there butts and send the rest of my kit which ive now been waiting 12 weeks for Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Madmarky Posted May 27, 2008 Author Share Posted May 27, 2008 Thanks for the positive replies guys. H5 - It sounds pretty good mate, the subs are awesome for 10's real punchy bass as expected but they drop quite nicely too. The biggest problem is the iPod player, its not the best way to play music as all the tracks are encoded differently and thus all sort of require different settings, but it will do.

H5 Posted May 27, 2008 Share Posted May 27, 2008 Yeah, iPods are useless for listening to music through a decent system. Glad you like the sub sound. I love JL subs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
