Hello all I am building up my stereo system. Currently I have the following Kenwood Excelon 815 XRC
Polk DBs 6.5 Components in front
Polk DXs 6.5 2 way coaxials
HiFonics Zeus V700 4x75+1x200
Cheap MTX 10' sub in a wedge box. Here is what i have to install
Alpine CVA-1005 Head unit
Alpine GRA-320 Processor, EQ, and BBE
I have the option of taking my Xtant 603X from my other car and moving my Zeus Over. Now I am thinking of keeping my front and rear speakers. However my main points of decision are what subs to get and
if I should I use the current AMP or the Xtant or get some new AMPs.
The Subs i am looking are a pair the Image Dynamics IDQs 10" they use 250RMS and the Xtant puts out 300WRMS at 2Ohm and 375WRMS at 1Ohm (yes it can run in 1Ohm load I currently am doing this with a pair of 12s in another car), the Zeus does 300WRMS at 2ohms. But I am open to other Sub ideas and am considering some Audiobahn Aluminum subs and maybe even there amps.
And lastly does anyone have expierence with Alpine ERE-190 Bass equalizer? Is the Audio Control Epicenter even worth while considering GRA-320 has BBE, DSP, EQ and they are all adjustable.
I still don't really have a Crossover but if I use my Xtant its all built in. But i still may need to get one. I guess my only problem with the Xtant is thats a 3 channel AMP that can be used in 5 channel mode but with and front and rear fader control. Which causes my DSP fields not to work and I am forced to only certain db loss lvls for rear. What are my main goals are as follows 1) Good sound with good bass response and not ultimate SPL machine. Also I don't need also complete ultimage SQL as well as my exhaust systetm will drown out any small imperfections and that doesn't work I will remove my T-Tops and listen to the BOVs :-) 2)I am doing it for shows reasons so I am really for what takes most show appeal. 3) i like to keep it simple and therefore i wanted to control everything through the Head Unit.
Also if anyone like to show some install pics i would appreciate it.
