OK, heres what I've decided on with the whole system, not great but I just want a little bump for the movies & a fair amount of power to the components.

Rick

nice!

haha nice. when we eventually get another meet going you definitely need to show up!

nice lookin I have Pioneers instead of the Alpine you will like the MTX's

dang.....that is nice! i need to up my sound...

Looks good, but why a 70x4?

Are those 10's or 12's?

Should be a clean set up

Rocky

Thanks guys.
The components are good up to 90W per channel so the Alpine should push them ok. The subs are 10" & are powered by the built in amp in the enclosure.
Like I said, not great & not a bunch of power like I usually lean towards but I think this should be enough for my needs.

Ricl

Everythings ordered. The 2 sets of Components along with the H/U are now sitting here waiting to be installed.

Rick

Heres a pic I found on EBay of the Sub Enclosure installed:

Wow, that is sweet! How much did the sub enclosure run you? I looked at them a few times but never decided. I wanted to see how they fit. So can you take a picture once you get them in because that picture kinda sucks. Like maybe put a person back there for perspective. Thanks and good luck wiring everything.

oh that just sex right there.... i love my full tilt...

Thanks
The enclosure was pretty pricey. I looked for days & the best I found was $479 with subs & amp, think its like 6 something on Crutchfield & Sound Domain.
On the Tonneau I thought I was going to have to have 1 made up custom. Found it on Autoanything.com

Rick

mmmm.... alpine....:55[1]: :notworthy

wow, that sub enclosure looks pretty nifty. Not my style, but looks freakin awesome, hah. Your system is pretty dang crazy. I would love to see your truck (with it's million mods) someday at some meet. thanksgivings maybe?

Thanks
Well, starting today, painting the new radio surround today & tomorrow I'll start installing the components in the doors & paint the black section of the door panels to match the surround. Still waiting on the wiring pig tails but they should be here today. I'll try & take pics as I go.

Rick

you got pics? you can't tease!

lol, nothing to take pics of yet except the surround which should be done in about an hour. I'll post pics of that if you want but its only a radio surround.

Rick

wow, that is going to be NICE! i like the enclosure. you are adding mods like mad. haha

Thanks.
I want to be done with everything but the SC & headers by April 07 which is 1 year from the time I bought it. Theres a big show then that I would like to attend which I've always shown my F-150 until this year because it was sold.
Heres some pics of the new surround painted, still needs 1 more coat of clear.

Those Thunderform sub enclosures from MTX fit really well. Unfortunatley when I bought one for my truck several years back I was really dissapointed by the amount of bass. Hopefully they have gotten better.

Well, I'm not needing pounding bass, just want some bump. I'm getting to old & deaf for ear deafening pounding bass.

Rick

LOL! I know what you mean. I still have a pretty loud system from when I was younger and it is definitely affecting my hearing. My wife won't let me use it as an excuse for not listening to her though.

OK, heres the finished product, will wait until tomorrow to put the stuff back on it.
