Installation Description

I'm running 4-gauge power wire from the battery, through a Stinger in-line fuse, to a small distribution block. I then run an individual 8-guage power wire to each one of the amps. Everything alse is clean and tucked away. The car itself is modified with full stainless steel exhaust, cold air intake and computer tuning. The suspension has been upgraded with sway bars and linkages, springs & strut stabilizers.

Scorecard by Crutchfield

Sound profile:
Warm
Ideal for extended fatigue-free listening, because they emphasize bass and roll off the highest treble, for smooth, relaxed sound.
Neutral
A solid choice for most applications, because they prioritize accuracy, without emphasizing bass or treble.
Bright
Perfect for listeners who want to hear every detail, because they accentuate higher frequencies for a crisp, energetic sound.
