In just a very short few weeks, I'll have my room stacked with equipment to be installed. As most of this is for performance and redoing some things, the outcome will be alot better. This process will take a few months to fully complete, as parts will be coming in throughout these next few months. I hope to finish by Spring Break at least with my work and school schedule for the next semester.

Equipment being used:
---------------------

2 - Infinity REF7540A amps
2 - Infinity REF6800CS sets of components
1 - Boss TV Tuner
1 - Roll of 100ft of 14ga wire
1 - Apple 20GB iPod
1 - Pioneer CD-RB10
1 - Pioneer CD-RB20
1 - 25ft of 8ga blue power wire
1 - 6ft of 8ga silver ground wire
3 - sets of twisted RCAs
1 - Dist block (1-4ga input, 2-4ga 2-8ga output)
2 - Compressed battery terminals
1 - Optima Yellow Top 34/78
1 - Tsunami Digital Cap (1.0f)
1 - XM MyFi with full car mounts

Oh, and I won't be using anymore FM transmitting for anything, all completely direct and will sound absolutely beautiful.

More on this later.

sounds very interesting, im looking to get a myfi later on this year, so i'll be sure to keep an eye on this
 






Being a Circuit City employee, our big accomodation this year was a free XM MyFi package... all we had to do was pay for 6 months of service up front, and it was ours. Patience is a virtue, so it seems. :)
 






very nice, 6 months service=$60....you got a $350 unit for $60......very jealous

since you do work at circuit city, are you getting discounts on your audio equipment that you are installing in your truck?
 






Yes, I get some nice accomodations.

As I'm very bored right now... parts have been flowing in like cookies this past week. All amps and components in. iPod and all accessories are in. XM MyFi and my Mobile Spec Pro Ice 5 farad cap are on their way. All wires are here. Lots of rewiring to do, that's for sure.

That little MyFi is pretty neat; we just got the shipment in yesterday at CC and setup the floor model. The signal is a little weak inside a building without using the included antenna, even though there is one built in. If you guys are interested, I'll go more into depth on it, but it's overall what I expected it would be.

Pictures should be coming soon of the pile of crap I have sitting in my room.

Till then, farewell.
