My new baby is getting the Cambridge Car Audio treatment next week. I'm going to try to talk them into taking some photos during the install.

Equipment List:

JL XR650 Components in the front
JL TR650 Co-axials in the back
JL 10W1v2 Sub in a custom stealth cabinet
Kicker 405D under false boot floor
ART Macromix mixer in arm rest
Traffic Master SmartNav
Nokia CK7W car kit in leather matched console
Steering remote to Sony adapter
Mk.2 empeg in the factory position

The install should be quite discrete. Almost no aftermarket equipment will be visible without lifting or opening something. The car kit is the exception but the matched console should help. We couldn't find a stealth box for the XK8 so CCA are going to make one.

We're running the empeg front channels, nav, phone and ext source jack through the mixer into the amp front and rear channels. The empeg rear will go to the sub channels. The nav and car kit have high level outputs so they run through a line level converter before the mixer. The ext source will be a 1/8" jack socket for connecting an MP3 player or somesuch.

Anyone see any gotchas with this setup? It's the first install I haven't done myself so I'm slightly nervous!

Rob
