Well Here was system #4, it was probably the best system that I have ever done. Everything was done by me, but the car got broken into and everything is gone. Here is a little about the system, the head unit was a Alpine 7525 cassette deck, it runs 2 four inch Kickers in the Dash, and 2 Kicker 3/4 tweeters MD25. It also runs the tweeters in the rear Kicker FX6.5's. Running off the RCA's the signal goes to the Audio Control 4xs, then the signal is separated to the amps. For the sub amp and rear mid I used a Rockford Fosgate Punch 400x this amp runs two Orion 12 inch DVC's, and the mid section of the Kicker FX 6.5's. For front mid, and front high's I used a Punch 4040 DSM, the runs the 2 kicker 5 1/4's, 2 Kicker 22nd tweeters in the kickpods. Now for the wiring, from the battery I ran 4 gauge Streetwires. This wire runs to the back where it connects to a Rockford Fosgate 1 fared Capacitor, then it connects to the Distribution block. Then From there I used 8 Gauge Power wire to each of the amps and crossover. For the RCA wire I used Monster Cables Platinum Series RCA's. I've just started the new system, I hope that it sounds better then the old one. The problem I had with the old system was that it didn't seem to be very clear, and there wasn't very much bass. I believe this is due to that before I ran all the speakers off the amps this time I decided to use some of the deck power for the smaller speakers, and the reason the bass wasn't there was because my box design wasn't suited for the car. Plus the old system took up way to much room, I couldn't take anyone with me because my back seats were taken out so I decided that it was time to start over. |
| When the rear seat is down you'll be able to see some of the wiring. This would eventually have a cover over it, and a plexiglass opening that was lit up with neon inside. | |
| Here is the start of the new amp rack. What will be done is that the amps will be flush mounted into the false floor I will build. That's why the amps are mounted on stilts. | |

Here is the Kicker Mids I put in the Stock 6x9 Location. I had to make a plate to get them to fit right. I really like these Bi-Amp speakers. The mid part is run off the Punch 400x4. The tweets are run off the Deck. They sound really nice. |

| Well here is the start of the false floor. Having the amps mounted this way hides all the wires and makes a clean looking install. | |
| Well
here is the false floor as you can see the amps and crossover are flush
into the floor, and the subs are hidden. Notice that I have the Fosgate logo incorporated into the carpet |
|
| Here is the Head Unit. Its a Alpine 7525. This has been a great Deck, I love the shuttle type volume control. I wish they still made them this way. | |
| For now I'm using these Q-Forms for my Kickpods, my next project will be constructing my own using the stock kick panels. | |
