Thought I'd share my install

So I finally got my install done. Pretty simple and clean, but definetely the best sounding car stereo I've ever owned.

I love the Premier deck. I had it in my old Honda and pulled that out because I loved it so much As far as I know it is the only Premier deck available over the past couple of years that has time alignment, making it easy to tune for the driver or passenger seat, especially with a seperate EQ. Also, it has 5 volt preouts which really aids in the sound quality I've noticed. The iPod functionality could be better, but it gets the job done.

Honestly, nothing that I could find.....haha! It was completely empty and we discovered that the EQ fit perfect so they built a bracket to fit in that spot.

That's the best part about this. Yes, it will go REAL loud if I were to tune the setup for it, but it isn't tuned for that. The sub is matched to the Focal's so if a song has bass, you'll know it with the sub, but it is not overpowering the rest of the system....not to mention you'll have a hard time hearing any of it outside the car unless I'm really playing it loud....and it will still not boom like many annoying systems out there. This was designed for sound quality and not quantity....the bass is perfect for what I wanted and I know I can feed a lot more if I ever wanted to.

edit: oops! sorry, I misread your post, I thought you said you're not into big sounds....I swear that I'm dyslexic sometimes...haha!

Yes, very nice. I really like where they put the eq. That's pretty slick. I bet it sounds great.
