MR2

Been looking over their site. Looks like they got some really sweet subs. I'll have to crunch some numbers and see how they add up. Definitely really interested in their products tho..! Thx..!

I remember soundstream back in the day...are the Kenwood XR amps their better line(wasn't sure how they ranked). Had a friend who worked at Circuit City back in the day and he had a full Kenwood setup. Of course he got a huge discount doing a direct buy so I'm sure he bought whatever the most expensive option was since he wasn't paying full price. I ran the really old Punch stuff cause I had friends at Circuit and Car Toys(those are probably bad words here huh). Anyway they both hooked me up. As of today I'm starting over basically completely. I am not bias to any brand. Just looking for quality stuff at a price I can afford. Unfortunately I'm not on an unlimited budget but with proper selection I think I can do a pretty descent system without breaking my bank account. Thanks for the info..!

Thx for the reply! Ya I really liked the sound of the Alpine PDX-5 or even the more SQ PDX-F6(less channels but perfect with no rear stage)but after checking out the Zed Audio Amps I was really leaning that way. They are definitely a bit more, larger, but could probably fit one of the Zeds. So battery. Can I just run one XS or are you talking multiple action. I'm really not doing that big of a system I don't think... I should be able to get by with just one good battery? As far as the sub I took at look at the lesser expensive one first...but the depth is the same like 6". So basically I just need to find a prefab box that a tad over 6" right(or do I need a bit of room behind the sub for proper install)? I kinda figured I'd run rear stage of the deck power just in case I felt like I wanted a lil' fill. I main attention was always on the front stage. That's the setup I did on my Maxima years ago. It's sounded really nice and it was really loud. It was a three amp setup.

I hear ya...well I have had an MR2 before and I loved it...was happy to come across another one in good condition. I also have a small garage so I was looking at a smaller car this go around. It definitely isn't a car stereo junkies friends...but certainly a lil' friendlier to the pocket. It's also a fun sporty car that is actually pretty descent on gas. So all around I'm happy with the purchase. For a big system...totally the wrong setup. I use to be the same way man...If there were 24" speakers I'd find a way to fit it in my car, truck, bus...lol..! I had a single 18" in my hatch of the GTI. My folks thought I was crazy. I said hey I want bass and if your going to do it...do it big..! =) Anyway...thanks for the tips. I'll have to look into the company. Definitely keep me in the loop with your setup. I've been having a hard time finding much in the way of subs that will fit in a .5-.7 cubic foot speaker box. Most are massive. So that is why I was looking at the lil' MBQuart. I'm sure there are much better options out there I'm not aware of...so I'll see what they have to offer.

The install is lookin' pretty sick so far...! Thx for sharin'...!

Cool thanks for the picture. If you find any more it would be cool to see what you did(wanted to do)on yours. I have not built a system in some years...but back in the day it seemed like a cap was useful so I bought one a few years back for my next system. So if not a cap what's the better solution? I saw someone have a battery in their trunk. What's up with that? I'm sure I've got a lot of catching up to do... Again thanks for the reply! PS: Man that sucks about the ride gettin' totaled..! I once had a pretty sick GTI my folks ended up handing down to my lil' bro. The engine was all moded. My bro like totaled it the first week he got it. Crash it into a tree going like 60 in a 25 mph sharp curve around the corner from our house. I couldn't believe it...it's was so nice and then bam whole quarter panel caved in! It wasn't even mine anymore but it was a sad site. He nearly had a heart attack he was so scared. I told my folks it was too much car for a first car...oh well. PSS: I took a look at link...be cool to see someones personal setup. most pics I could find were rather smaller or with little details...but thx..
