Install done...

So, finally its all done, i have been fighting with my car to achieve good imaging and low frequency response...

The components:

Deck: Eclipse 5435 (Navigation)
Amplifiers: Eclipse 4 channel and eclipse 2-channel.
Front: -Focal Kevlar 6" mid bass (70 to 250 hz)
-3" Tang Band midrange (250 to 3khz)
-1" Vifa XT25 tweeter (3k up)

EQ: - Audio Control EQT's
Crossover: Audio Control 6XS
Subs: Image Dynamics IDQ10V2

I know all of you guys hate AC... but i had it and used it... i may at some point switch out the HU and get rid of all the components and replace it with an all in one. Overall, the noise is not bad at all... the equalizers are placed up front under the pass side dash in a flip down tray.

Sound is great... good imaging, tonal balance... but that is only my opinion... haven't had any experienced ears hear it.

Here are the pics..

Fozzz i'm sure you'll remember me from the back and forth emails about the a-pillar setup...

Yes it does... i was pretty concious of the reflections off the dash board bump.

I did as much tuning as i could through the EQT's.... but time alignment would be nice.
