I keep looking at late 2000 spec Kenwood excelon amps, the x301t was rated at 100x2 at 0.005%THD

They also have a party trick power slide door on the front for the lolz

All the stereo has more power than the car .....

Subs will rattle the panels off or will get stress cracks from vibration!

Fun times.

not quite but this Indian car has given me inspiration!

Windscreen cracked from the SPL!!!

Hitting pedestrians obviously

@Wino

For stereo starting with the 2 sets of the kenwood high res components

plan had been for stock locations for all 4 woofers, but just one set of tweeters

Thoughts on second set of tweeters in rear vs second set in front etc?

I could do one direct facing and one set bouncing off the windshield or both direct facing or one at front and one at rear

the cross-overs are bi-amp capable.... so can do a lot in terms of amplification etc

Long term is to remove anything from the rear and have both 6.5's in the door

Still unsure with tweeters...

Screw it... Ordered the matching co-ax speakers for the rear (on super sale)

They support being bi amped etc as well so can run them full range or midrange only

Also ordered 3sqm of sound dampening to start with to make the car a quieter place in general

I'm going to do some 3d printed models out of PLA for the front doors for dual 6.5 setups and if I get something I like them move to pteg

Co ax speakers

Speakers arrived and they are nice

I need to get some extra RCA cables today as I have 4 channels but need 6

In future should have a DSP to simplify things...

The sound deadening arrives tomorrow and I can start stripping the interior to do the wiring and deadening etc

Also need to find a yard to get a few replacement parts and work out why the pass window does not go up or down

From the old republic...

More pimping material

I only have 1 at the moment

End result will be 3 of them

The rear speakers for the moment

And to start making it quit...

I'm going to do the doors and the floor while I have panels off running wiring etc

I'll prob need buy a bunch more but this gets me started

Went and visited st mary's car audio (bloke who runs the place is top notch) looking for a spare Sony radio harness of the right generation as well as a 5M RCA cable pair and a sony dash sleeve $40 later and I had everything I needed... bloke who runs the place is top notch

I got a spare second hand alt and confirmed fitment and have now sent it off to mechman to upgrade it to 6 phase and 180+ amps

Frustratingly the supplier of the first sound deadener I ordered is now out of stock... so found a new supplier and get to see how much difference there is before I install anything (want consistency) assuming the new stuff is as good as the old stuff I'll order extra so the same does not repeat again

I got in a solid state relay with integrated adjustable delay so a quick test and confirmed it works with the trigger for the dome light... so now am setting up foot well and other lights for better overall lighting

Weather should be good at some point next week to 100% strip the interior and run some wire and RCA's, install deadener and get something happening finally
