Why not just be on the safe side and fuse the cable when you split it? I guess what I should of said was when you split a cable but I didn't clarify. Your main cable is already fused at the battery I'm assuming so to be on the safe side I would fuse the additional cables once you split it. You should be fine with the Karma or Klarity cables.

A fused distribution block would be a good idea if you were running a larger gauge cable and then reduced to to go to your amps (ex: 1/0 to 4awg). With the RCA cables, the Krystal cables are better than the Karma.

There are quite a few high output alternator manufacturers. Though I have never used any, these are the most commonly mentioned: Powermaster Excessive Amperage Ohio Generator Iraggi Alternators Mechman High Output Alternators Mean Green I hope this gets your started.

Are you referring to the RCAs that come with the amp kit from Knu, or are you talking about the 6M 4 Channel you linked to? The RCAs in the amp kit are no longer available I think. The Karma Kables are nice as are the Krystal Kables.

There shouldn't be a problem running the KX150.2 for the tweeters. If I were you I'd double check Kicker's website to make sure whoever your getting the amps from are authorized.

I'm sending mine roughly 100w a piece. I think the KX350.4 could do it or you could even step it up a little. The amp is rated at 60w to all four channels.

They really are some nice looking speakers.

Here is a picture Nick just gave me. Obviously the motor is different but it gives you an idea of the basket. We think the depth of them are around 3.125". The above measurements are in millimeters also. I hope this helps and if I think about it, the next time I'm home I'll pull mine out and measure.

I wish I would have taken measurements, but I didn't think about it at the time. The irony of it all is, there is a tape measurer in one of the photos...

Thats going to be tough considering they are in my doors, but I'll see if Nick has any measurements.

I'll upload a few pictures tomorrow after classes and post them up.

Sorry OP for getting offtopic, but yes the 800PRS would work perfectly, that is actually what I'm running.

What headunit are you running? Lets start there. I'm power the carbon mids and tweets both off of an Orion 8004, so they each get about 100 watts a piece. The gains are set pretty low right now so they may not even be seeing that much though.

I thought this looked familiar. It looks really nice, I can appreciate the attention to detail you put into this. Edit: I didn't mean anything by seeing this previously, I just thought it was familiar.

How old is the build log, because it seems I've seen this before.

Nick runs and suggested to me the SEAS Prestige 27TFFNC/G textile dome tweeter. Very nice tweeter for the money. http://madisound.secureserverdot.com/catal...roducts_id=1466

Of course they can be run active. I've been running mine (carbon mids) active along side a set of Seas tweets for a couple months now. I love them... I can throw some pictures up if you'd like and as already stated, the depth is about 3-1/4".

According to their website, the outside diameter is 18.5". That would include surround and everything.

Very nice equipment, but why the need for rearfill?

x2 I'm glad I got to meet you also Brooksie. Thanks for letting me spend time in the truck jamming out. I listened to quite a few different genres and the truck didn't hesitate to play any of it. Hope to catch up with you again soon. Glad you made it home safely as well.

I really like the 800PRS. I feel it is easy to navigate the menus and allows for quite a few adjustments The sound is much better than the stock speakers. I think I need to hear someone's system that really sounds good to give a better comparison.

I have finally began to piece together the equipment for my next install. Being away at school makes it difficult to work on things, so slowly but surely it will get done. I'll try to keep this thread updated as I go along. To begin, the vehicle will be a 2002 Ford Explorer. The equipment that I am installing: Two 12" Fi Qs Orion 2500D Orion 8004 AudioControl EQX I began by tearing the entire out so I could lay this down:Two rolls of RAAMmat BXT and 9 yards of Ensolite. Here is how the truck looked originally: I began in the back and worked my way up front. In some photos you will see I used Spray Foam to fill in some of the space in the panels. I then laid Ensolite over all of the deadener: I did both front doors with about five layers total of RAAMmat, but since it is such a tight space, the photos didn't turn out very good. Afterwards, I began to put it all back together: That's it for now. I'll try to remember to get pictures of everything as I go along. Sorry this post wasn't very interesting, but it is all part of the process. KB

x3. I've been doing it this way for a year or two.

Tough crowd, or just a little slow here as of late.

My stock sub woofer was held in by two bolts. Once you get the panel off, you can easily access the them to take them out. Overall I've used a little over 150 sq. ft. of RAAMmat and Second Skin. I still have a little left over of the Second Skin that I'm probably going to add to the doors once I get some time.
