Are the crossovers for your tweeters in the back? Does it mean you need to run twice as many wires to your front splits now?
My dame, you sure love your magna

no, he has a bluetooth module which allows him to send the signals from the crossovers to the speakers wirelessly... :cool:
or not :P....yeah, he would have to.

yeah they are cross overs in back. i have to run a bit more cable than usual. but the power cable running from amplifier to crossover is very short so it balances out a little bit.
and the speaker cable is stinger pro & phoenix Goldso it adds up a bit per ft *sighs*
and i dont really love my magna i think its crap lol. but i love my sound system :)

In that case we're in the same boat, i'm saving up for a new car big time, my maggie has seen better days, my audio on the other hand, i'll keep for awhile to come, actually forever as i swear i wouldn't spend a cent on anything audio for cars again... ever
I just noticed this image:

It appears you are using 4AWG power cable from the battery and 8AWG power cable to the amps from the distro block? Is this correct? If so, change it too 0AWG / 4AWG as the Xenon's can pull some serious current when angry. ;)

thats not a boot install... THIS (http://home.quicknet.nl/qn/prive/rg.holdorp/tuning.pps) is a boost install

yes Marty you are correct. and i will be doing as you suggested. its just i dont really have the money. and that 0awg cable isnt cheap.
and that other install um yes looks awesome but very time consuming and professional and......... unlimited budget!

that is defintly one extrme install by Alpine. but surely the sound quality could not be perfect. but it does look perfect.
wonder how many houses you could of bought with the money used during the install
