my (V old) install

Post by cyberpunky »

This is some pics of my install. its over 10 years old and was done it in a let it all hang out style, as I was too busy doing installs for other ppl to do much more than get it in. its in a 1969 toyota corolla. The car is painted in PPG Harlequin paint.

System is an Pioneer ODR HU and stacker that breaks out into an Orion DEQ30 and then into Apogee DA1000 DAC, from there in Audio Control four.1 and onto Audio Control MVC. The signal is then fed into a ZPA 0.5 driving Dynaudio system 360 fronts, and a ZPA 0.3 driving to IDMAX 12s, these replaced 2 XMAX 12s due to job. I made console with custom RDDP leds in it for each amp, but don't have pics. Anyway I just posted this because I thought ppl might like to see some of my much loved PG gear. Although its loud its very much an SQ system, and images/stages pretty well
peace

I don't know what to say other then that's oddly unique. I like it in a disturbed way.

lol thanks guys. I was thinking that I spent so much on PG cabling etc, that I didn't want to hide it all. Originally I just wanted it in and working and planned to go nuts on install later, but after a while I liked that it wasn't the same as every other car out there. The big thing for me at the time, was that it sounded better than any of the *pretty* cars around, as they tended to look great, but mine imaged and staged better, and sounded OK too. I went function over form I guess, and was too busy working on paying jobs.

I will get some pics of it now, and post em up, as some of those are during install pics(interior), and so make it look rougher than how it finished up
peace

I like the "trim" package. Adds that extra touch.

Here are some more pics. sorry they are a bit dark.

I get my ZPA0.5 back tonite, after a mate has replaced the dodgy pot on ZPAXO with resistors. Will have a listen and hopefully wont have to change values. Then I'll get him to do same to the ZPAXO in my ZPA 0.3
