Default Sony GT-710! (UPDATE 3/21!)



YUP!



Install pics soon to come....

The beginning of a kick-arse system:
1 150x4 Alpine Amp (PDX-4.150)
1 1000w Mono Alpine Amp (PDX-1.1000)
1 12" Alpine type-r 2-ohm
2 6x9 Type-Rs
2 5 1/4 Type-Rs

I'm aiming for the end of the summer to finish all that

No offense, but why the Sony? I guess the rest of the components in your setup seem to b pretty good, but the Sony seems out of place, if you will..

\What are you doing for enclosure wise/amp mounting in the trunk?

I agree, the PDX stuff replaces the V12 line, and its some really nice gear. If you really enjoy the head unit the go with it, but in my eyes it seems to be a weak link. Sony has good features for the money, but its been many years since you've seen an audiophile setup including Sony that wasn't vintage Mobile ES stuff.

Basically, and I know this is a really bad reason, the only reason I picked it was because it was the only thing I could get with my discount that had 3 preouts. And it matches the red lighting

That mount is VERY temporary
(I hate it, but it was my only choice at the time)
