Hey! I'm back :) I missed the forum and all of you.

[THX_Elite 26]

  Ya so, I had set up a SSA forum account, made a great build, enjoyed it for a couple months...and then went to prison...I knew I was going but that didn't make things any easier.  Anyways 18 months later I'm out now and in the halfway house just months away from being able to re-build my system into my '99 Jeep Grand Cherokee!  Man am I excited!

 

  So here I am checkin' in at my favorite forum to say "I'M BACK!!  WOOOOT!!"

Glad to have you back. Dont be getting in any more trouble now

[Randal Johnson 544]

Welcome Back. Stay out of trouble.

[THX_Elite 26]

Thank you for the welcome back guys!  It took that experience to understand my priorities in life, what is important to me and how at this point I stand to lose everything I hold dear if I continue down the same path that I have in the past.  I have been very fortunate to have made it this far and will not take that for granted any longer!  

 

I'm looking forward and see a bright future ahead of me!

Welcome back!  Glad to hear that the experience seemed to have been a positive one that is getting things turned in the right direction for you.  Wish that was the case for more people.  

 

 

Looking forward to seeing you get it all rebuilt!

Thanks Alton! Glad to see your post!  It's been a while eh!  

I tore down my Mazda install and stored all my equipment to keep it safe.  While I was gone, I was given a '99 Grand Cherokee!! I will post a pic of it when I have the ability.  I hope that my box fits nicely in the back, that is the only concern I have right now as far as install.  First things on my to do list are replace the stock battery with the one I bought before being locked up (it has been maintained nicely the whole time I was gone) and also beef up the wiring.  Next I'm looking for a nice pair of components for the front stage.  I have been looking at Focal P165 V15's for some reason but I am still window shopping.  I am also ditching my Hifonics amps and looking to get much nicer units starting with the front.  I have looked at the SAX-100.4 v2 but...MAN money don't just grow!  Also checking out the the IA6.4 or IA3.4 and the Crescendo S800.4.  And lastly I have looked at the Diamond Audio HX-600.4.

I mentioned all that, Alton because I value your knowledge and opinions.  My budget will just have to adjust itself to what I want LMAO.  So what do you think....about the Focals, and my somewhat-narrowed down list of 4ch amps?  Any thoughts, opinions, suggestions for me to consider?  

Thanks Brother!
It's sooo good to be back!

Glad you're back and learned from the past.

[THX_Elite 26]

Thank you Aaron!  I had to learn the hard way but learn I did!

Welcome back. Sometimes the biggest lessons in life must be learned the hard way.
