A few months ago I received my
sub box from Chuck and
a pair of 5.25" front adaptors from Jim. I had been meaning to install them, but I wasn't able to locate an Alpine PDX5 amplifier. For some reason, they were out of stock everywhere I checked for months. On Friday, I was driving through southwestern Virginia and knew I would be passing one of Crutchfield's two retail stores, so I called and was surprised to discover they had one amp in stock.
Yesterday morning, I called local shops asking if anyone had time to install the system. I found a good shop ~30 miles from home and headed over there immediately. I arrived at 1030. Due to my poor planning and my wife being out of town, I ended up waiting while they installed the parts I provided as well as speakers I bought from them. Thirteen and a half hours later, I was on my way home.
Here are some poor images of the system, but rest assured it looks great and sounds fantastic. I'm very grateful to both of the EliseTalk members who made this possible by producing products for the community that large companies wouldn't dare tackle with such a limited market.
Jim and Chuck, my hat is off to you both.
