[QUOTE="bigaudiofanatic, post: 8103674, member: 604303"] Today I started a sweet sound quality build on a c55. I have been in contact with the owner for over a year now, he finally pulled the trigger on the build. The parts: Front Image Dynamics CXS 6.5's Rears Image Dynamics CTX65 Speaker amp Soundstream REF 4.920 Sub amp JL 1000/1 Slash Subs 2 JL 10's Wire Knu Konceptz 16, 12 gauge Power wire Kicker 0 gauge Dynamat Audiocontrol LC6i The build. I will say this, the Mercedes has one of the smallest trunks I have worked on with such massive amps. I am still figuring out the best way to mount them with the ability to still gain access to the spare tire.
