Audio System Mods (receiver/amp/sub)

[mtl1977]

Just posted some pics. Nothing special, pretty basic setup.

Still need the antenna adapter.

 

Don't bother getting the Audiophile system if you care about sound and plan to add aftermarket stuff. Save the $$ and get a set of MB Quart or Boston Acoustics components for the front doors.

 

Alpine CDA-9813 - 60 watts of built in power per channel (SWEET!)

Rockford Fosgate Punch 400s (about 400 watts into the sub, 4 ohm mono)

Rockford Fosgate Punch HE12 sub

 

Gonna throw in the two Rockford Power 12s from a vehicle in storage for the winter. :)

I actually thought the Audiophile sounds pretty good. Plus, you have most of the wiring harness already in place should you decide to upgrade some of the components.

Alpine is one of the few companies still making decent headunits. You are only getting a true 15-20 watts rms out of the unit amp itself though.

 

The ols RF subs are pretty good but the new ones are horrible. I would also get away fomr MB Quart now days too. Boston isn't too bad. Highs are a little harsh but mid bass is good.
