Stereo setup is DONE!

We finally finished up the stereo today...I think it brings everything together VERY nicely. Super happy with how everything turned out.

Pioneer double din
Focal K2P mids
2- 10w6
JL amps











FYI...if you're curious about the snow camo...it just ties in with the valve cover.

Nice car. I started using a JL amp for my sub after I fried my fourteen year old RF. I'm quite pleased with it.

How do those Focals sound?

I LOVE my focals....I changed out my deck wtih an Alpine headunit and with the use of the seperate EQ with the imprint system, it is amazing how transparent the sound is

No fan needed. The Focals sound amazing. I've been a fan of Focals for years and the new K2Ps are even more amazing than last years!

Go outside and look inside your IX. It's identical other than possibly a double din. I still have to get to changing it up a bit...

I agree....the K2P's are mind blowing....mine are from last year and I'm scared to check out the new ones for fear of buying a whole new set...haha! Sorry for hijacking earlier...I didn't realize you were running Focal's and I thought someone was asking about how I liked mine.

Wow, looks excellent. Love the way you matched the snow camouflage...people will ask and when they hate on the amount of audio in the car, you get to show them it's still all business under that hood. Well done good sir.

Do your Focal sound bright at all? I have the Focal K2's but have the older style TN47 tweeter and its too bright. This is off a PDX4.100 too. Thinking of switching them out to newer Focals.
