Working on my ZX display

Here is what I have done so far with my ZX stuff. Thought I would show you guys now and get some feedback. I bought a 215ix, but I don't have it yet. Anything else Im missing? Suggestions on layouts? I was considering wiring up all the amps and accessories (for display) like I did with the MS1000. Is the look worth the extra cost and effort?

my only suggestion is that the line driver in the back of the car will be useless as it will amplify any noise, just as much as it will the signal. As close to the head unit as possible.

Excellent point, but this is just a product display not an install.

That's a cool display. You can't do anything more creative with the amp board? Maybe get a black zx to mix
It all up and throw it in there. That would make it more like modern art.

It looks like you have all of the products covered. The only other thing you could add would be this. Its not for sale though :D

Nice display John. I think adding the cable will inhance the display a great deal, and would be worth it.

Very nice collection, maybe a ZX200 on the top row would balance it out?

Loving the ZX500 and that white DD5 want one!

Thanks. No i didnt make it. PG did. As far as i know, this is a 1 off. I love the features of the DD5/10 and because the plan was to use all M series in my install, this will match pretty well. Yes, it is a Tantrum but i think this will look better than a black one when everything else is white.

Damn that's cool. I have a pair of white tantrum amps. Wish I had a white dd5.

I have looked for a ZX200, but the only one I could find was in Europe and it was very expensive. Got one for sale cheap? Like $100-$150?
also was curious u still have the ms 1000 or know any one looking to sell one working or broken is good too
You mean this one? Sorry, not for sale. :wink:

So where is all of this wall art going up in? Bedroom, living room, man cave?

I'd take your wall art over any Picasso any day of the week.

Oh, you may want to add an AX406 on that processor board. There's even a spot for it.

Were there any fuse holders or distros made in that Color scheme?

Bedroom and basement living room. As I get more stuff I will spread it around the house.

Not that I have seen. It would be pretty easy to paint some of the cool ones white though. Problem is, those little distro blocks are expensive!! Maybe someday down the road I will get a couple. Right now Im focusing on amps and processors.

That spot is taken by an EQ 215ix. All of the AX crossovers I have seen have the older MS style artwork on them. This display is all ZX artwork in my mind.
The next one Im building is going to be MS stuff. I already have a 2250 and a 275, and Im looking for a decent original 2125 if anybody has one for sale. I missed the one on ebay that just went for $230...dammit

Got the 215ix added into the display. All the holes are drilled, and the board is ready for carpet.
