what did you get for your bucks

if anyone has any subwoofer and amplifier installs in the boot trying to figure out what works best

I've reinstalled all my door speakers. i put 160W dual cones in the front and 180W 3-ways in the back, these were all 160cm Pioneers. you need to get special 6" speakers, the ones with extra screw holes slightly further from the center than standard 6"s, and only pioneer and i think jvc do these sort of speakers, but don't hold me to that.

I can take pics if you want, i replaced them all in about 40 minutes.

sorry peeps I intend to stick some photos up. My stereo install has been done for one week now. But Now it's all pulled out again, so my flat mate can up the ante for the Auckland Autosalon show this weekend. Which means I'm stereo less for about a week. Thank goodness induction noise is so pleasant

When the install is re-instated I'll photo it and post 'em up for the brethren.

As far as the OEM stereo CD attitude is concerned, the dealership that i bought my car from had the stereo disassembled & cleaned, as it's apparently very common for salt crystals to form on the laser lens during shipping from Japan. A decent cleanup with some CO2 spray might be all the stock unit needs to 'sort it'. My factory stereo plays every CD I've thown at it.

ar, that's good to know. MIght try thaqt out and see. I have my stereo that came with the car out on my desk. It's not factory (well I think it's not), it's a panasonic double din. With flap down face to unveil the tape drive, cd in the top. Has a graphic equalizer with multi modes. One mode has the graphic equalizer turn into a little dancing man, one settings makes it into a set of lips that move to the music/lyrics, and yet another is a fighting dude, kung foo fighting. Good old japanese Only think it didn't do was play cd's so maybe the lens was crystalised.

Couple of photos attached of my boot install done by a mate of mine. Those 2 12's give a huge amount of base response.
