    Sound system complete...it's pretty basic

    I had already bought subs/box/amp...and I had some new Pioneer 3 way 6x9's sitting around that I was originally put in my Galaxie, but decided the motor was a better sound system for it. I ended up getting an Alpine head unit...I was looking at getting a Pioneer(i've always liked their stuff), and just using an aux input for my ipod, but Best Buy was all out of that particular pioneer. So I got an Alpine, and although they are rated at less wattage than most, man do they know how to use it. I got a ipod cable that runs to my glovebox, and I'm really happy I went this route it was a little more costly but the sound quality is awesome. And lastly today I got Pioneer 2way 6.5's installed in the doors. I don't have amps runing on any of the front or rear speakers, but they are plenty loud enough. Ok kinda just rambled on...

    Tomorrow I'll put up pics of the subs/head unit/ and a picture of the front door speakers, and maybe take out a rear speaker and take a picture (had to do a little masaging to make them fit). I mounted all of the speakers under the stock covers to keep it looking clean. So there it's much to see when it's all said and done.

    Well I didn't get pictures up yesterday I was to busy messing with my amp...which decided to stop working. And I tried working on it but just screwed it up more...I'm now in the market for a new amp. Any way here are the pics:

    Head unit-Alpine CDE-9870 w/ ipod cable




    Front speakers-Pioneer TS-G1641R 160w max 2way 6.5"


    Rear speakers- Pioneer TS-A6971R 300w max 3way 6"x9"


    This was the amp-MTX Thunder 4250D


    Subs-MTX Thunder 6000 10"


    All the speakers are mounted under the stock covers. The fronts fit just perfect, but the rear required some grinding of the piece of plastic that they mount on.

    I had made a video, but the sound quality on it sucks as you can imagine, and it was before I put new door speakers in which made a huge difference. Once I get a new amp I'll put up a video...not that it will sound good on here, but whatever.
