quite similar to my first version install, except I didn't like the nude look of sub in the trunk, therefore the project included a sealed box, made of lightweight plywood, who robbed only 8cm below the rear deck.
...so, still goob for 2 bodies
but I dropped that version because there was a new entry gear ..

btw, it was one and half year ago https://mbworld.org/forums/3352460-post29.html

7. I saw a CLS in a car audio mag had 3 10s in the rear deck looked amazing.
sorry, don't get the belt thing

about 3 x 10" in the rear deck, I am afraid but you cannot fit more than 2, except you are ready to loose your deck's oem shape and headrest seats.

.. would be curious to see a pic of that cls !

My goodness I loved those.

Can I tell you, anyone that wants REAL car audio gear, please buy Dynaudio. They make Alpine, JL, MBQ and any more you can think of sound like tin cans.

Dynaudio make great gear.
I had them about ten years ago and if I was so positively impressed by their tweeter, cant say the same for their GT woofer.
unfortunately didn't had room for a sub on that install, so can't say for their sub .
I like most the "woody" sound of Morel, so this time I went for their Supremos and Ultimo sub.

I would not call it techno, loll. That is garbage, house has various levels and people that dont like electronic music per say, will still like different variations of house. It can be very SEXY when spun correctly Now trance is more of a vibe that you like or or you dont, that is my reasoning behind it.

5000 watts?!! That's menacingly powerful, but here's a word of caution if you bump too often. One of my first cars was a Dodge Dynasty that had an automatic trunk latch (not a trunk closer like MBs). I had 4 Rockford Fosgate 12's in there powered by a 1200watt amp. After a few months of cruising and cranking the bass, the latch stopped working. If you have pano roof, too much bass at high volumes for an extended amount of time might cause it to rattle even more than it already does.

Holy large enclosure batman. Looks great. When you are ready I can make you an enclose that is smaller and still hits hard and make it steath if you want. How heavy is that thing?

Cant get your Sirius to work should go XM. I have used them both and the XM gets better reception.

No, I just cant get it to activate after sending the signal to it from online. Is there a special secret to it?

I was told, channel 184 which is also specified by sirius. They also told me to make sure the car is on and the radio is off. I have yet to try that and my neighbourhood is known for bad cell phone reception so I might have to drive else where and give it a try.
