Nice build sir, I've been out of the loop for so long that I didn't realize Stereo Integrity was still around lol. I'm slowly getting back into the car audio realm.
Jeez, I've apparently been out of the loop for too long. I thought Adire Audio went out of business over a decade ago. I had the Brahma MK1 and MK2 back in the early 2000's. Glad to see them back in business.
