Default My first C4 Vette Amp Rack install.

A few days ago, UPS delivered my Hifonics Zeus 4 channel amp which I bought on Ebay. This amp is going to replace a 4 channel Profile amp which died in less than a year.

This amp looks great with a lot of neon blue and the Hifonics logo which lights up. Since it looked so cool, I decided to show it off a little and build a simple amp rack on top of the storage bins.

I really didn't want to install anything on top of the storage bins but, decided to, since I've never used the storage bins ever.

The amp rack is just a simple carpeted tray, with a carpeted plywood top cut out to reveal the Hifonics amp. It took me and my son 5 1/2 hours from start to finish.

This amp sounds very clean and is really quiet. I'm using channels 1 & 2 for the front 5 1/4" Infinity Kappa components and bridged channels 3 & 4 for the 10" Bazooka tube. It sounds really clean with powerful bass. I copied and used the amp setup procedure written by member "fej" in one of the threads I read here on the forum.

Here are the pictures:

Thanks, for all the nice compliments. For my next project, I'm thinking of replacing the Bazooka tube with two 8" subwoofers in the stock rear speaker locations.
