My newish install

[Airzone]

Hi guys,

Thought I'd stick up a pic or 2 of my first install for you to peruse.

I've got a JVC KD-S895 mp3 head unit, 4 x 6.5" Jaycar Response CS2288 co-axial's, a 10" CS2274 subbie, and a KAC-859 amp. It sounds pretty good, especially compared to what I had before, and didn't cost all that much at all (compared to some installs I've seen). I reckon it turned out pretty well for my first homebrew job. Thanks to my flattie Barge and my mate Dave for helping me to get it all together.

how long did it take to install?

[Airzone]

One day we installed the front speakers... Then a couple of weeks later we installed the rears... Then the next day, I got the head unit and that was installed too. And it took a weekend to install the amp and subbie, as well as re-wire the rest of the speakers (as they were using stock). So all up, probably about a long weekend's worth of work with 2 - 3 guys.

How's she sound champ?

[Airzone]

Amazing... Especially compared to before - it was so dull and flat. Now it's a much richer sound and louder too I had the same effect from moving from $20 PC speakers to $300 PC speakers 3 years ago (IMO the best money I've ever spent on my PC)

That said, I wasn't going for super loud, but for something nice and crisp. And I heard my flatmates car which had some normal jaycar 6"ers in it.. So I'm happy with it, and that's really all that matters, 'eh?

can i offer some advice if u removed the sub from the box and put in the wall with box on back u would get a lot better sound and more space:)
