How does the front speakers sound with this amp?

A.J@CarbonSignal · 04-24-2011, 02:26 PM

Nice job...

Great job! The stereo install looks so clean!

Are you able to still use the audio controls on the steering wheel?

747ifly · 04-24-2011, 04:26 PM

Thanks and thanks. Just got done yesterday so... was a little excited. These speakers sound great!! I also have them in my 4runner. So, I really like them. They sound great on the JL HD amp. Maybe there is a better sounding amp out there?? but they sound damn good! There is some fine tuning to do still. I have been piecing it together for a while now. And, oh yes, steering wheel controls work with ASWC. You just have to program it manually. Been playing with the settings and crossover points and so forth. Pretty happy so far. May have weighed it down a bit...lol. But, the hushmatting really helped quiet the ride down.

I love your indash video read out the camera quality is really starting to improve

I improved the mount for the microphone. Also got the amp logos flipped over the right way. The mic location is pretty nice now! Couple other pPhoto0377.jpg

Added just a little show to the system today. A JL light up logo. Came out pretty good. Lights up blue when you open the trunk.Photo0381.jpg

Hey nice setup! I was looking to install the same head unit in my Z and wanted to find out what all you need to make the install look so clean. I will do all the work myself, so other than the headunit (pioneer avic-z130bt), the steering wheel adapter (Axxess ASWC), and a ipod/iphone connector cable (Pioneer CD-IU51V) what else did you need to install the headunit. Did you buy any wire harness adapter to integrate with the stock antenna? What about any dash kit, or mount kit to make it fit and lock in there snuggle and flush with the dash trim.
My plan is to start with just the headunit for now, then down the road add component speakers, maybe some Focal or Alpine, an amp to power them, and maybe a rear view camera too, but until then i need the Pioneer unit to work with the stock speaker setup (non Bose option for me) so i need a speaker adapter at least and wasn't sure where to order that other than Crutchfield. So any help or advice you can lend would be awesome, thanks!

Looks nice, I hope you got a good deal on that JL gear. Call me in the next build.

747ifly · 12-01-2011, 11:19 PM

Thanks everyone for the props. I hit the stereo pretty hard everyday for at least 45 minutes in the morning and at night. Driving to work and back! Actually I have mounted the tweeters through the dash panel now. They sound better!! If needed you could always replace the one small panel that covers the factory tweeters. Still love it!
