I got bored.
Pioneer speakers front and back.
Lanzar 1200w 4 channel amp.
Hifonics Brutus 2000w monoblock. (for two 12" subs[clif designs, test for now till I get JL or Kickers])
And this:
Kenwood DDX8019 (In-dash double din monitor/dvd receiver)
KNA-g510 (Navi system)
KTC-HR100TR (HD Radio Tuner)
KCA-iP500 (iPOD interface)
Oh, this is getting installed in about two hours from now. I will try not to blast the system to much, I'll post pictures and updates within a few days(once the custom sub box is done and installed, so it doesnt look like crap lol)

What's the point of that? If you've got the crossover points and gain set up properly, you shouldn't be able to damage anything.

I know, this system is too loud. The speakers hurt my ears, and this is with the gain most of the way down. Imagine if I set the gains higher!! Also, the amp is currently just hooked up to one 4-ohm 12" 600w sub. Its alright, its loud but doesn't hit like I would like. But atleast I know I can upgrade to a solo x 12" 2500w rms and be fine with this amp.(which is something I may do in a month or two anyway) As for how it sounds? Good, maybe a 8 out of 10 right now. But I need to adjust its 100 settings on the monitor/amp.
Anyway, I need to buy the yaris kit for the double-din. Cause there is a gap between it. Thank you tiksman for the information on that part.
I will post pictures of the amps and headunit in the morning!
Don't curse me out on the amps, I need to re-do the trunk, the idiots layed down inside of it and crushed the thing. So I'm planning to build a wood platform, lower it, give me more trunk space(no spare tire), and then build a special box for the sub(s).
Wish me luck. I like to hear good sounding music, which is why my widescreen tv has a Bose system, my computer has a 700w surround sound system, and now my car has an inzanely loud system.
Ok, no more blabbing, pic's in the morning.

Do not get to me as to why its a mess, I put it together just to hear the thing. I need to now make boxes, but first need to figure out where they will go.
Then I will worry about running the cables correctly and neatly. I also need to get the indash kit as I mentioned to get rid of that empty space on the sides of the monitor. Other then that, this system sounds real good so far.
Next month or two, I will trade in these 4-ohm 600rms subs(getting 800watts from the amp, and get the Kicker Solo X 12" which is 2500watts at 1-ohm. My amo throws out 2600watts at 1-ohm. Perfect match :)

Correction, I upgraded to the 2600w version ;)
It sounds good. I dont think I need more bass then two 12"s are giving me, but I do like the idea of the 2500watt 1-ohm Kicker Solo X

damn clean that mess up in the trunk lol.....
gotta make it presentable.....
definately good choice on the brutus, and the HU. I have the flip out pioneer but have realized I would rather have the double din, moving parts suck......
