ok - so what's in your car?


  • Empeg Mk1, number 00144

  • Pioneer 3-way 6x9's in the rear deck

  • 10-inch Polk DX subwoofer in Q-logic box in the trunk

  • Factory 6-inch front door speakers (when I get around to making an adapter for my Pioneer 5's, they're going in there, the factory Honda speakers are laaaaaame)

  • Plastic covers where there should be dash speakers (only the top-of-the-line Hondas have real dash speaker locations, eventually this dash will have a date with a dremel tool when I get the chance, and I'll insert my tweeters there)

  • Jensen amp bridged to 300w RMS mono driving the subwoofer

  • Old-but-good 2-channel Yamaha amp driving the deck speakers, I think it does about 50w RMS per speaker and it sounds fantastic

  • Cheap clarion 4-channel amp driving the front speakers, 2 channels still free for the dash tweeters when I get around to it

  • Some F-mod crossovers on the inputs to the Yamaha and Clarion amps. I'm cutting off everything below 100hz to my deck speakers, and everything below 200hz to my door speakers.

  • Heavy-gauge power wire coming straight from the battery into a waterproof 20-amp fuse block in the engine compartment- everything runs off this, not the car's power wires

  • Radio shack 20-amp noise filter on the main power lead coming from the firewall

  • Custom capacitor circuit to prevent the Mk1 from rebooting when I start the car

  • Lots of wires running in the most ungodly and difficult to reach places under carpets, trim, and paneling

  • Tiny bits of skin, hair, and blood from installing the previous item
