Lol, i was all of a sudden so very drunk, went outside feeling fine, got out there, spun out, faceplant, sick, destroyed house, fell on the living room floor, carried to a bedroom and left to sleep it off, all very odd, i never do that normally.

I bought two for a party and the other 4 are investments. Some people will pay anything to get booze late on a Saturday night.

patch cable



Sound Ordnance M4075 75W x 4 Car Amplifier



kicker wiring kit for an 8 gauge amp




this is all going to be installed with what i already have;

a pair of 12" CVR kicker sub's



amp for those (Kenwood Kac-9105D)



and wiring kit for that (4 gauge for this one, dont worry guys )




biggest purchase yet, but because my car has the premium dsp radio, if i replace one thing, everything needs to be replaced...i wanted sub's and ipod control with a clean sound; with ipod control comes a new head unit, which comes with a new amp, which comes with new speakers. the result is all of this stuff.
you'll want to tune that setup once installed. turn all EQs off and adjust the sub so that it's not over powering the rest of the speakers. then turn the volume up to a level you'll most likely be using the system at. this will make sure that the speakers are tuned to your preferred level. then when you start adding EQ and bass boost, you should have a much richer sound.
knowing how i am with eq settings, i will most likely be playing with it every song, and music type i listen to.

but definately noted, but i am nowhere near that step, i need to tear out everything out of my car first.

very easy,that car has the easyest doorpanels on planet.just watch the front doors,it has a small long black screw behind the door vent flap
rear deck will be a #$^# but worth it...can i re-use the wires for the speakers? i plan on ripping them out, but if i can get away with not doing that it would be far easier..actually, what wires can i re-use in general...
nah its easy,putting the seat back will be retarded yes well if i remember correctly the wire size is 0.3 or 0.5 so u should run bigger wires than that imo
I wouldnt rip anything out,just run new wires. this way u can always go back to stock,when u sell car or etc.
makes sense, and yeah i was following an e39 guide to getting the seat out, but it turned out to be an e38 guide...i just walked away :banghead

how long do you think this will take, im gutting it before the stuff arrives so i can try to install it not long after it gets here

Front doors are less than a minute each,rear deck about 15 minutes,i guess u will run wires under the door sills(easy with those they break easy) thats about 5 minutes.Putting it back,double everything
and replacing everything head-unit related, i have the dsp, so it ALL has to go, replacing and wiring the new amp, installing the sub amp, and subs, running wires for those etc.

will i have problems with the alternator with those amps? if you want to take this to pm so this thread doesnt get too spammed, it may be for the best.

i dont know much about audio stuff,but u will need a capacitor for sure,your alternator is a 120 amp and the battery is 80. i would get a least 1 farad capacitor.
Don't get a capacitor, you wont need one.

I've got a (theoretical RMS) of 1.8kW of amplification & a 110A alt and all is fine (although obviously a more powerful alt would help!)
