It looks like the 880PRS has something called Advanced Sound Retriever (ASR). It also has Auto Time Alignment as well as Auto-EQ, where as the 9800BT does not. I hope this helps some.

Wiring for the CFQ5.2 comes in the form of a modular wiring harness. This wiring harness contains four color-coated wires; red, black, blue and yellow. The colors correspond with the following: -Red wire is to be connected with a constant +12 volts -Black wire is to be connected to a secure ground -Blue wire is to be connected to the remote turn-on lead from the primary source -Yellow wire is to be connected to any amplifiers following the CFQ5.2 The following instructions are to be used primarily when installing the CFQ5.2 in a dash location. Understand that these instructions require you to use the power and ground wires used for the source unit. Crossfire highly recommends using the same power wire as the source unit to reduce the risk of inducing electrical noise into the system due to voltage variances. 1. Remove the source unit from the dash, far enough so that the wires are exposed. 2. Use a digital voltmeter and find the constant +12 volt lead for the radio. Using a wire cutter, cut this lead and strip off approximately 3/8" of the insulation from both ends. Find the red wire on the harness and strip off approximately 3/8" of insulation from the end of this wire as well. Twist the red wire to one side of the existing +12 volt lead you cut into. Place a barrel connector of appropriate size over both ends of the wire and crimp these in place. 3. Once you have found your +12 volt lead, it is now time to locate the ground wire supplied to the source. Splice into this lead. Take the black wire from the wiring harness. Connect it inline with the ground wire using a barrel connector of appropriate size. Crimp the wires back together. If the ground wire has been screwed to the chassis of the source (such as Chrysler vehicles), you may use this to ground the black wire. Be sure to use a ring terminal of appropriate size and tighten the screw securely. 4. The next wire you will be connecting is the remote turn-on (blue). This wire is to be connecting to the remote turn-on lead coming from the source unit. Again, strip off approximately 3/8" of insulation from the end of both the source remote output and the blue wire for the CFQ5.2. Connect these wires using a barrel connector of appropriate size. If your source does not have a remote turn-on lead, you will need to find a switched +12 volt supply. This can be done by using an ignition controlled lead for the source unit. 5. The last wire is the delayed remote turn on (yellow). This wire sends out a 2 second delayed +12VDC output to turn on any processors and amplifiers following the CFQ5.2. 6. Plug the wiring harness into the back CFQ5.2. *Pulled Directly from Crossfire's website*

Congrats to all of you guys..

Sounds like I missed a hell of a time.

LOL. Get the pictures up Nick.

I wish I would have been able to make it. I would've loved to met up with some of you guys...

Any more?

I'm going to have to meet up with you guys one of these weekends before classes let out. Do you'll get together often?

Your going to make me wish I stayed down this weekend. How did Nick's truck sound?

Pictures yet?

I wish I had seen this earlier, but I already have plans now. Not being in the loop = FTL

I'm probably going to run subs and port both back. Thanks for the comments.

There will defiantly be many. Hopefully this weekend I'll get some 1/0 run and possibly the false floor fabricated, then again it is Easter so who knows.

I did both front doors with about five layers total of deadener and the rear hatch with about two layers. I do still have some extra deadener left, so I was waiting until everything is installed before putting the rest on, that way I will see what areas are problematic. I'm going to run the stock six disc headunit for a while, so the EQX will take care of all crossover settings and stuff. I can't wait for Nick to get these speakers in.

Thanks everyone. I'm open to suggestions, so if you feel I should do something a different way, please suggest it.

There are three possible ways I may do the box. or or Use the second one, but mount the woofers on the front of the box. Does anyone have any experience with 3rd Generation Explorers and which way works best? All of the box specs are the same, 5cu. ft. tuned to 33Hz.

Should be.

Should be fun. Just need some motivation. I'll post up box specs later to see which box you guys think I should run.

Nick is hooking me up with what he is running. Similar to AA Poly mids but with a carbon fiber cone.

Thanks. I can already tell a difference the deadener has made.

Forgot to mention: 30ft of Knu Konceptz 1/0 15ft of Knu Konceptz 4awg. 8ft of Knu Konceptz 8awg. 50ft of Knu Karma SS Speaker Kable Three sets of 1M Knu Krystal RCA Kables One set of 6M Knu Krystal RCA Kables Its no Nick Morgan install, but we're getting there.

I have finally began to piece together the equipment for my next install. Being away at school makes it difficult to work on things, so slowly but surely it will get done. I'll try to keep this thread updated as I go along. To begin, the vehicle will be a 2002 Ford Explorer. The equipment that I am installing: Two 12" Fi Qs Orion 2500D Orion 8004 AudioControl EQX I began by tearing the entire out so I could lay this down:Two rolls of RAAMmat BXT and 9 yards of Ensolite. Here is how the truck looked originally: I began in the back and worked my way up front. In some photos you will see I used Spray Foam to fill in some of the space in the panels. I then laid Ensolite over all of the deadener: I did both front doors with about five layers total of RAAMmat, but since it is such a tight space, the photos didn't turn out very good. Afterwards, I began to put it all back together: That's it for now. I'll try to remember to get pictures of everything as I go along. Sorry this post wasn't very interesting, but it is all part of the process. KB

Have a good time bro'. Get at me when you get back in town...
