I have just had the first half of my audio upgrade finished.


Kenwood 7120




Boston Acoustics GT-22 Amp under Driver seat





Custom Box w/ 8" JL Audio Sub under Pass seat





Alpine 6.5's in Speaker Bar


Left to go:

Boston Acoustics components in front, 2nd Boston amp, Rear mounted camera

 

Beautimus..

How's the sub sound? Can ya feel it in your Chest??

 

Thanks! Dude, the first tune I blasted was Slipknot and holy jesus palomino did it jam! Though its a single 8 you wouldn't know it.

 

Looks great! Hope you don't cross any deep water!

 

Not planing on it. That what my quads are for!! LOL

 

Ni---ce... I have an amp sitting in the closet I'm planning on adding to the infinity woofer. I'm hoping to add a little kick to the bass. I like a good tight base note for rock, not that resonating sound that everyone seems to like in their ricers. I'm hoping the single eight will do the trick by adding a little more power to it. Sounds like it might.

 

How do like the kenwood unit? How is the map coverage? Looks like an excellent system.

 

Would like some more info or a write up on that sub under the seat.

 

Looking nice and clean. How do you like those Boston amps. I've never heard one before.

 

Thanks for the compliments everyone!


Actually I like it a lot. A real nice function I wont live without again is each source has its own EQ settings. Only thing I could complain about is that I can only change Skins from the USB. And that is currently being used by the iPod cable. Nav coverage is so far real good. Went to NYC the other day and it picked up fast out of the Lincoln Tunnel. Takes some getting used to with the amount of settings, but worth it to have control over much of the audio.



Everything was installed by sound-waves.com, the car audio place near me. The box was built custom. They initially tried to put a shallow Kenwood 10", but was still too big for under the seat. They opted for the JL 8" and ported the box. It rocks without the BOOM BOOM BOOM and rattle of a 17 yr old driving a lowered 97 civic


This is the first time I've used Bostons. So far it is only powering the sub, and I have sufficient bass with the level down to 0, depending on what the source is, iPod, Sat CD or Tuner. I plan on having the rest done in April, that will include a second amp for the components. I will let you know how those sounds as well.
