I'm really liking the sub. Hope I don't blow it. I went through the same thing you went through with your M6 Woofer, except my woofer was a Rainbow woofer. I blew the Rainbow Woofer (by being stupid) And I was willing to pay for the repair myself. Rainbow never replied back to my emails. So no more rainbow for me. I thought about getting a JL W6 but that's what everybody else has.

Nice, clean install.

What separates did you choose for the front doors? Looks like CDT crossovers in the one pic

CL-61A-25 PRO - CDT Audio Classic 6.5" 2-Way Component Speakers in the front
15-MC62 - Memphis 6.5" MClass Coaxial Speakers in the rear

I was on a limited budget so I went with lower priced speakers. The plan was to upgrade them within a year but I don't feel the need to. I'm especially happy with the Memphis rear speakers

Good luck with the CDT's. Their marketing promises great things and only kinda delivers IMO. I blew up two sets on on a JL 300/2 and I don't pound the hell out of them. Cone separates from the voice coil. Otherwise at low volume they were alright. Otherwise nice setup.

Definately like the set up and location of the amp is nice. EQ takes me way back too, but they are pretty useful for bypassing and controlling highs and lows.

Clean setup. I just picked up a pioneer 4 channel amp (45% size reduction) to fit under the seat and another Mono D amp for the sub.

I used your idea for mounting the sub in the OEM subwoofer box and it came out very nice.

Thanks for the good idea.

Oh yeah... Thats the A/C vent. It really cools down the amp Especially when I prop up the mat to trap the air. Only downside is increased fuel consumption.

I LOVE CDT. I also have a lot of respect for Diamond.

CL-61A-25 PRO - CDT Audio Classic 6.5" 2-Way Component Speakers in the front
15-MC62 - Memphis 6.5" MClass Coaxial Speakers in the rear

I had the CF-61A-NEOs and HD-62-CFs. Man was a great system. On a JL Audio G6600. That was in my VIII.
