***Official What did you do to your EK today***

[TbM]

Finished off the stereo finally, kept gettin side tracked with other shit and only did little bits here and there, ended up having to drill the crap out of the door plug to fit the new speaker cable through it, there is just enough room for 12 gauge cable.
Heres how it looks now

Sounds amazing compared to the stock stereo and will sound even better when i get some sound deadning Highly recommend focals to any one who likes actually hearing the music/vocals instead of just having spl.

i fixed my system aswell got my 12" sub working again and now i dont have to be driving along with music from my phone lol.

anyone else have problems with their headunit cutting out? check your switched IGN cable going to the headunit, mine wasnt getting 12V for some reason :/ i just bypassed it though, strait to the barrel. needless to say i've missed driving with music!

[TbM]

^^^ Nice one its so much better having good music when your driving What sort of sub do you have? I got an old alpine type R for the moment but ill upgrade it down the track, probably to a focal lol

[redefine]

i cant remember exactly, but i think it was a "400W" (lulz) clarion driver, and its hooked up to a decent powered orion amp. does nicely for what it needs next audio upgrade is splits for the front and rears or a 4 channel amp, but i dont know when thats gonna happen.

ideally i'd like to have a full setup with external crossovers and stuff to get cutoffs exactly where i want and eq's dealing with the cabin resonances and stuff (im a little bit of an audiophile) but that all depends on money :/ though my new HU does have a 3 band parametric eq which will be fun to play with when i get the time.

BTW, that looks like nice work there, i guaruntee mine setup wont look as nice

[TbM]

If you dont have lots of money then you can do what i do and just run a front stage with no rear fill, I just run focal splits in the front with a sub in the boot so it saves on having an extra set of speakers and you can get away with using a 4 ch amp to power the sub and splits if you have a good amp so you save on amps too. Id rather spend twice as much on the front where ill be sitting

Ive got an adjustabe passive crossover in each door panel

And ill either be upgrading the head unit or gettin a processor down the track to set it up properly
