Default New stereo system finally installed

I've actually had most of the pieces installed for a while but I was just waiting to post pics until the new head was in. Here's a list of the equipment

Pioneer DEH-P9400MP CD/MP3/WMA Player
Pioneer Premier CDX-PD6 In-dash 6-disc Changer
Phoenix Gold ZX450 4-channel Amplifier
MB Quart 215.61Q 5 1/4" Components
MB Quart DKD 116 6 1/2" Coaxials
Image Dynamics IDQ12D2.V2 12" Subwoofer

The system was installed by Security & Sound Systems in Honolulu.

I'm pretty happy with the setup. I just need a few days to tune it. I think I have to go get myself an SPL meter to set the EQ.

Here's the pics.

Default Thanks! The rear channels of the Phoenix Gold Amp

The coaxials are powered by the head. I figured that it wouldn't be practical to amplify the rears since I'm going to fade them so I can't hear them in the front anyway. It's strictly for rear fill.

Default Maglite plastic clips, you can find them pretty much wherever they sell the flashlights....

gotta drill into the metal though. Atleast thats what I did with mine.
I'd imagine he installed it to his amp rack?

Yup, Maglite clips. I think they were about $10 at a local hardware store.
