Doesn't anyone have anything other then Pioneer or Alpine.Anything wrong with JVC

i dunno bout that mate, mine sounds ok, but looks like a mess in the boot waiting for the extra equipment

Headunit - Pioneer DEHP3550MP
Front - Kicker 6" EX60
Rear - Pioneer 6x9 TS-A6960E 240W
Amp - Kicker KX150.4
Subs - 2x Sony XS-L1220

happy with it for my first system, it does its job. just couldnt deal with them paper speakers

Pioneer DEH-P8450MP
Pioneer TS-C160R 16cm Kevlar Splits (the yellow ones)

Can you please fill us in on the sound deadneing? What material? How much? Where you layed it... How you layed it? Do you just glue it to the metal? I'll probably be doing some myself later down the track.

Thanks

ALPINE

Argh - bugger that I say!

Sound deadening usually has a bitumen backing that when heated up becomes mould-able and will stick to the metal skeleton - if you have a decent front stage, it will come to life with sound deadened front doors - good stuff to use is Dynamat Extreme, but it's $$$...brown bread ain't too bad on the budget...however G-Spot (see www.caraudioaustralia.com) is releasing a new range of products which are already becoming very popular.

Cheers,

I wont go through the many systems ive gone through to finally achieve my dream system. This ones hear to stay though, this ones cost me around $7000 so i really dont think any more modificatiosn to the stereo are necessary.
I got the tweeters setup right where they are in the fairmont ghias, along that piller thingo where nobody can see em.
Alpine CDA-7998R Head Unit
Competition splits in the front
Alpine S-type 6.5" speakers in the rear(newbies)
twin Rockford Fosgate Punch 12" subs in a custom Sealed Box, Stealth install with 2 alpine v-12 amps hanging off the back wall in the boot. the install cost me almost a grand alone, will take photos sometime this week to show yas the install. can still get to spare tyre, yaz would definately be surprised if ya see this as it literally looks like ford put it all in.

In the EB i got cda-9831-r Headunit
s**t boss splits in the front with tweeters in the door next to em
same rear speakers as in the AU except theyre visible.
15" 1500 watt Type-R Alpine Sub
Speakers and Sub are run once again by twin Alpine v-12 Amps.

I really only know wat im talking about wen its about subs, speakers and s**t i tend to just go top of the range to be happy, cbf rememberin model numbers and s**t. Quite proud of both setups though and as i sed will get pics this week sometime

I have out in a Pioneer DEH-P4650MP HU a little while back

Just recently put in 4*200W Kenwood 6" 3 ways, 12" kenwood 800W sub and a clarion 2 chanel amp with 200W.

Sounds good, have had people hurtin in the back seat

But also suprised a lot of people with the quality of job that i did
