New JL and DLS Install Mazda RX8

Whats up fellas.... I Got the car back from the good guys at IAC Custom here in Toronto (Frank did the car, I wouldnt trust my car with anyone else).

Anyways I use to go all out on systems and do the whole fiberglass install etc... But I decided to go with an install more classy/subtle that blends well with the Aesthetics of the rest of the car. Plus i didnt want to mod it too much to the point i cant return it back to stock (like my other cars) In total 2 small holes were drilled into the car to keep the sub box from moving, not a single other mod.

I have the Stock BOSE Head unit and used a high quality LOC with great success.

Cheers!

The finish is Alcantara (suede)
System consists of the following:

DLS A6 AMPLIFIER
2 X JL 10W7
NAVONE LOC
AUDIO CONTROL 4.1
Stinger and Streetwires wiring

It sounds great, very tight the box is a tad bigger than 2.6 cubes so its just enough for a pair of 10w7's. They get plenty loud as well enough to cause some serious flexing action.

Yes sir, DLS IR8.2's in the factory locations and MB Quart RAA 4200 on them.

The quart amp is hidden behind the box as it doesnt match the DLS.

super duper equipment and super clean install. must've cost a small fortune, eh I would go with JL Cleansweep instead of a regular LOC though if you're not changing the head unit. Your system will sound even better with a quality deck though.
