Loving all the updates.  Liking the DSP and amp arrangement too.

Thanks Aaron, some of the pictures makes it look more cluttered than in person. Thats one of the main reasons why I choose the SSA IC amp, because it allowed me to fully use my 60 fold seat in case I want to upgrade and add another amp to my 40 fold seat in the future. 

 

Its been a long time coming but this year has been dedicated to getting the car together, maintenance and system wise.

Amp mounted to the box using neoprene vibration pads between amp and amp board. Also have some washer style vibration feet between the amp board and sub enclosure. 

I used my mom's place to do the install instead of mine, here's a couple before pictures that she took for me. That DSP and SSA Amp is one of my favorite pictures, they looks so good together.

Looks great.

Thanks Aaron

Looks like Ill be busy this weekend

The best way to be ready is to be prepared. Saturday is going to be a long day, steps one and two are complete. Most of the trunks interior has been removed and wiped down with denatured alcohol, it should be dry after another wipe down on Saturday morning. All the interior sheet metal is prepped and clean.

 

 

As much as I love car audio, I will pay someone to install my deadner in the future. Haha glad I decided to start a day early and do it in sections vs the whole trunk in one day. 

Trunk Lid is complete

Got a little chilly last night so I let the sheets sit in the sun this morning.

my daily is a minivan that I can't sacrifice any space in due to having three kids, and constantly travelling out of town to visit family and needing the space to pack everything we own into the vehicle every time...

Would love to just be able to put a simple single 12" off of about 600 watts, but not to be.

Thanks guys, I love your product. I left a review but for some reason couldn't upload pictures at the time.

Bought some female RCA dust covers for the the jacks that aren't used. 

Clean looking work my man!

Thanks bro. Its almost time to hear some beat, I have been bassless for too long. And actually doing things right and not rushing is making this patient process that much more enjoyable.
