New audio system w/ speakers in rear..

[SunDiego]

Got my car back yesterday from the audio shop. Here's a list of what I got installed,

-MTX Audio 420w RMS (840w peak) 4 Channel amp
-Infinity 8" 200w RMS (800w peak) Subwoofer w/ fiberglass case
-MB Quart Premium component speakers
- Tweeters installed in mirror triangle side pieces
-Polk DB675's (I had installed in front), moved to the rear w/ fiberglass cases covered in polyester.

The installer covered the tweeters with a mesh fabric so it looks pretty factory. The rear speakers are positioned so the speaker doesn't bother the ECU (right panel).

Here are a couple pictures of the install. It sounds amazing! Let me know what you think...

Looks GRRRRRRRRRRREAT How much was it and how much power? Don't mean to be nosey but I was quoted $500.00 to change the door speakers alone.ABT here in Chicago lost a sale that day! $300.00 for 3hrs. in labor to do something I can do myself? Amps and woofers are a different story.
I put the Polk 651's in the doors and that helped alot now I am thinking of adding tweeters or 4" speakers in the rear to pull the sound back farther and a sub woofer under the dash. I have the upgraded speakers/ radio 10 from the factory and I will be keeping the tweeters and head unit. I get more than enough volume from the factory unit and want some more bass. I have been looking at the Boss Bass-600 but being out in the open it just says "steal me" on it and my car is already a target in my naibourhood.
Will your "guys" sell the woofer housing? Maybe with a woofer pre-installed? I don't even know where to look here in Chicago for a decent installer/ stereo shop so anyone around Chicago reading this................

The MTX Audio amp is putting out 420 watts (but I've read online this amp puts out more power than rated).

great install,but the tweet pod looks bad. rapping it in that. tons of better ways to do that. seen the pics to prove it.

[SunDiego]

Care to share the pics then?

When the doors are closed you don't even see the tweeters, so it doesn't even matter either way.

I'm not a rapper.

Here's another picture of the tweeter install,

Nice install and saved most of your cargo space unlike mine. Having speakers in the rear makes a huge difference IMHO.

Thanks, yeah the rear speakers really make the sound a lot better.

Sun how is that amp? Does it hit pretty hard. I am looking at that one or the Alpine PDX-4.100
