I know all that gear. An impressive list indeed.
All best in tuning it to get the best out of it.

Yep, tuning is half the fun. And you're right, adding an additional driver sounds like nothing but it can mean starting again alright.
When my A pillar spheres are finished, I'll be able to get the APs to play well right down to about 250Hz no problem. I'm helping a friend tune his HAT L3SE system as well. Point source with no cross over points sounds very special indeed.
We both had 3 way Morel front stages before too.
Trust me when I say that we ain't going back. But you gotta hear it to believe how much better in so many ways correctly tuned wide band systems can be!
Have recently pulled all of this gear out of a Triton ute . . .
Alpine IVA-W502E w/iPod audio/video connection
Alpine NVE (Nav)
Alpine 400BTi (Bluetooth)
Eclipse Reverse Camera
Alpine Type X (Ref) Front Stage
Alpine Type S (Co-Ax) Rear Fill
Alpine PDX 4.100 Amp
Focal Bus 25 Underseat Sub
Big fresh bulk pack of Dynamat goodness sitting in the cupboard.
Now I just need to find a clean EP3 to put it all in . . . might have to add a few new tuning goodies while I'm at it.

I have a whole list of things that will be going in, or jumping in and out and about, so who knows.
I joined here to see how I can go about pulling apart the dash of my car, and relocating a few things on it, along with a few engine upgrades down the track..
But gear wise, a few things that will be making various appearances in my vehicle include:
Mosconi AS100.2
Mosconi AS200.4
Several Mosconi AS300.2s
I may upgrade these amps to the new Mosconi/Gladen Zero amps soon however..
Mosconi 6to8 processor
SEAS Excel Crescendo 8s [or 10s if I can fit them] 5.5 midranges and Crescendo tweeters
Raal 70-10 ribbons
Peerless HDS 8s and 4s
Vifa XT25 tweeters
Subs are undecided as of yet, however I do have a JL W6 in a horn loaded enclosure and 12 Jaycar 10s aswell.
Anyone have any links on how I can pull my dash out entirely?
EDIT: its an 06 FD Sedan
Thanks.
Ryan.

Where would you put those Raals?
They're deep!
I looked at buying a set of Aurum Cantus G2s after liking my set in my home speakers, but they're not small at all...

The Aurum Cantus ones arent that bad compared to the Raals, but I dont know how familiar you are with the FD Civic dashes? Not sure if you have seen my build log so far on MEA Winno? The dash is rather large, I know Ant had to cut his firewall to fit his Raals, however there is still plenty of room without such extremes in my car. But that will just be for comparisons most likely, the SEAS Crescendo Tweeters will be the more permanent 'reference' in the car.
Just need to work out how to relocate the air conditioner unit in the left of the dash..

Yep, I'm Winno from the MEA forums.
The things we try for our music on the go huh?
Most people would call us plain nuts.
I reckon I'm lightly salted though.

Haha, I know, you are also Winno of SNA also. I have a good memory and always take time to glance at what people on other forums I know are up to.. like young drifter and rad on here ;)
The quest for pure sound is yet to unfold fully for me though.
