Well I finally installed a Groovy Black light into my Boot install..
Reason: So I can find stuff in the dark with out ruining the Neon Glow from the Ports on the sub enclosure... Also it make it look real Trick at night...

Below are the Night shots.... It does not turn out so well in Photo's
One is the Shot of the Boot with the Black light and the Port holes ( the Blue Circles)
The other is of my Jensen amp... The Logo Glows a nice Bluey Green to complement the install

dude, if your camera has manual settings, put the shutter speed on like 3 secs.. and chuck it on a tripod, or if u dont have that handy, a chair, pole, anythign will do except for holding it urself :P

There is NO kenwood Components in my Car !!!
Jensen, Magnat, JVC, Blaupunkt and Clarion.... NO KENWOOD.....I would faint and pass out if a Kenwood Component even remotely comes close to my car...

Is that powering ur subs??? Or did u end up getting an amp for your fronts?

What RMS power does it feed ur subs? 150 watt RMS?

I have more power at hand for my tweeters... :p

Thought about upgrading to a cheapo monoblock for sub duties... say 400wrms... then bridge this for your fronts???

Peace

This is More then Enough power..
The JVC Headunit does an excellent job of Controlling the Splits and 6x9's
The Jensen does a reasonable job of Running the Subs..
People wonder how I can get the sound I get with the power I got..
I am still trying to figure it out.. :nuts:
I have only got the Jensen's Gains Set on 1/2 Gain and the Subout on the Headunit set on Low and at Level Two (out of 8)and it is enough to rattle your Kidneys..

So far I can see no need to Amp up the Fronts or Rears as they sound way loud and clear straight off the deck...

I did have a More powerful Gelhard Amp to power my subs and it had 300W RMS going into each sub and it was all I needed to get 141.2db at my last db Test..

I still think you should install a lit Plexiglass cutout with the Kenwood logo, to go with the 6x9s.
