Default Install Completed! Check out my pics!

It took me 12 hours with 10 of it on Sunday. Sub and amp were already in the car so it saved me a few hours.

Installed an Alpine 9815, CDT CL-61's up front and CL6x's in the rear. Amp is a JL E1200 powering a JL 10W0.

This thing rocks, just needs some fine tuning. Thanks to all for the tips, answers and ideas!

Looks nice. You will love the CDTs and the Alpine HU features. Between the Controlled dispersion of the components and the time correction, and other HU features, you will be able to really fill the cabin with crystal cear sound. Awesome technology :thumbs:

Looks good. What is powering the CDT's? You only mentioned what was powering the JL sub. I know you aren't planning to run those CDT's off the HU. :lol:

:( Yeah, headunit for now, didn't feel like wiring up another amp. It sounds good but I know it could sound better. I'll save that project for another day.

The difference in sound will be like night and day when you get those front CDT separates on an amp. :yesnod:

Looks good. :thumbs:

I do have an extra amp in the garage that I could try out. It might be fried though since I was running my sub with it and had some problems. May try it someday, right now I'm really happy with the new sound and don't feel like doing any wiring right now!
