Default New system installing today

Well, if I can't mod the motor (family would have me commited) I decided to go audio.
Today will see new JL speakers, Stealthbox (yea...coulda gone cheaper) and Alpine pdx 4.0 & 1.6 amps.
Blistering guitar licks on a top down night!
That's a sweet way to move further into my 50's......

Car has 900 miles and she is awesome!!

Which JL speakers did you use? 600 watts to a stealthbox? Is it the 10w3 or did you put a better sub in the stealthbox?
Just saw you have a vert,disregard my last two questions.

Nice, I have the 10w3 powered with a 300/2 and it sounds great. Be careful with the gain, thats alot of juice!
