New system finaly completed

[Harken]

Okay so I'm gonna exercise my bragging rights proudly with my NEW system completed about 95%.

HU: Alpine 9835
Amp: BK Butler Tube Driver Blue model 2150 (thats 150 watts of true clean power each channel.
Speakers: Focal Utopias 165W 2 way
Sub: JL Stealth box w/ JL 10W1

In the rear doors I have some Boston Accoustics 6 1/2 rounds powered by the factory amp but dont use them. My HU is faded all the way front.


Let me tell you this system is AWESOME! Crystal clear sound and everything is totaly stealth. Of course the faceplate of the HU is visible but the faceplate is removable.

I have learned spending more money on a system does wonders for sound quality. It doesnt pay to buy anything cheap when you cant hear details of instruments or even make out what an artist is singing. Now if only I coud get rid of the road noise.....

For those of you contemplating a new HU, check out the Alpine CD-9835. You too will be impressed with the latest and greatest Alpine HU ever!

Now to go enjoy my music

It will make a BIG difference if you sound deaden the vehicle.

Draft - I would love to show pictures but..... evrything is where is where it should be "stealth". The only thing you can see is the HU. For that I suggest checking out Alpines web sight. Its an awesome unit!

Terdrocket - I would love some ideas on sound deadening. Can you point me any directions for info?

Ah, sounds like a real clean install then. Yes, that HU is very nice.

sound deadening for road noise is a very involved process...u will have to take out the seats and carpet then dyno mat..or peel and stick insulation on the floor of the truck..up the doors also

thats alot of work.. u should be getting THAT much road noise though..hmm

After the first 24 hrs.

All I can say is AWESOME SQ. The speakers and amp broken in. The HU has sooo many features Im having a blast playing with all of them.
As far as music? Listening to BB King is like sitting in a blues bar having a beer (not in the car of course!). Hip Hop music, gawd, you can actually hear what those guys are rapping (singing?). And symphony music has a whole new feeling to it. The stings, horns and percussion are all crystal clear!
Its amazing what a few thousand dollars in car stereo equipment can do.

This thread's not worth 2 cents without pictures. IMHO, stealth or not, take some pictures and show it off. ;-)
