Hey all, been a car audio enthusiast for quite some time now and wanted to start a thread for posting pictures of your car audio setup.
I currently have a JVC in-dash DVD 7", purposely bought the non touch screen so people wouldn't dirty the screen up.
Speakers are stock and always have been, they work great, my deck has a built in hpf and they already sound great.
As for subwoofer setups I've been all over, my very first setup in the celica was a 12" MTX 9500 hooked up to a Hifonics Brutus 1600watt rms amp, then the amp fried(sub was too power hungry even with a 1 farad cap). So then sold that and got 3 8" JL W6's, one of the tinsel leads came undone eventually and got rid of those too, traded for a xbox360 and a bunch of games. After about a year I finally decided to get a new subwoofer setup. Guy here on base was lazy and didn't want to throw his setup in his new car so he sold it to me. I currently have a 12" Alpine Type R hooked up to a 1000watt RMS Alpine amp. I'll tell you this current setup is cleaner than my others, it isn't as loud but I'm more for SQ more that SPL now. Now its you're turn guys/gals. If you have any questions regarding car audio send me a message, I'd be more than happy to help you out.

OK so when I got my Curren It had the factory speaker front and back and no headunit

So 1st off I installed my head unit
1) Note the finger prints - Ignore the blue numbers and bad spelling, I was looking into doing digital guages but finaly I thought it would clash with the Analog guages and I'm looking to get the guages soon.


2) I installed 6.5" 2 way Pioneers in the back (Still have to put in the Spacers)


3) I installed 2" tweeters in the front window "sails"


4) I installed 6.5" Nova 3 way in the Doors


5) Borrowed an Amp from delusionz thumbsup.gif
6) Bought a 2nd hand Sub (for $5)



mad.gif mad.gif BUT this has now changed as delusionz asked for the amp back and the Sub was rubbish thumbsdown.gif

So I decided to make a few changes biggrin.gif

1) Changed the head unit to an Alpine FVA-W306 [4 x 45w output and a rca output + volume control for the sub] thumbsup.gif thumbsup.gif


2) Installed 8" 3 way Ulitmate Titanium II Full Range Speakers in the fron doors - Left the 6.5" Pioneers in the Back. thumbsup.gif thumbsup.gif


3) Bought a 2nd hand (but good) Pioneer GM-X802 (good for 300W in Mono mode) + (Sitll have to change the lights to Blue) thumbsup.gif thumbsup.gif [now delusionz wants to swap amps with me] laugh.gif


4) Bought another 2nd hand Sub (Mutch better than the 1st one) thumbsup.gif thumbsup.gif thumbsup.gif


I just love the Sound in my car now (But I still have to sound insulate it). biggrin.gif

I mostly listen to Dido (great with lost of base, You can not beleve how good her songs are with good base, Simon & Garfnkel, Jonny Kleg and Katie Melua.
The setup I have workes great for this. I have not staged the sound as I prefer to be imersed in it rather that have it up on a stage in front of me, This way I feal that they are
singing just for me and not to a crowd.

PS. Im not a total lamo biggrin.gif I have also have Black Eyed Peas, The Eagles ( rolleyes.gif oops just gave my age away), Paule Simon, and lots more
The headunit and Amp are so powerfull that I have never taken the volume above 23 (out of 30)
