The speaker link you sent are 2 ways correct? Pulse is in Salisbury about an hour away. very doable for me

It's a component set. What you will want to do is run it active. You won't use the crossover that comes with it. The processor will control that. Deff check out pulse and tell them what you have and what you are looking for. Sealed doors, clean install, proper tuning which the MS-8 will do itself.

Never mind. They are out of buisiness also.

Seems like all the good shops are dying and the rip off plug and play shops are still going.

Sound FX in Lewes says they have 2 of the top 5 installers in the nation. That sounds a LOT far fetched to me. Can anyone vouch for this?

correction... 2 of the top 100 installers. looks legit as of 5/23/2011

Can't confirm. I can confirm I've seen top 100 installers do very dumb things.

Just ask them 1st if they know how to install a MS-8. And what they plan to do with the install, sealing, sealed baffles ect.

cool thanks. what would u expect to pay for an install like this?

If they are building the box and they should it depends on your area. If you supply everything from cable to RCAs $1000-$1200. That includes run all new speaker wire, and installing the front stage right, laying enough deadener which you need to supply

Hey NoLoud... Its looking like the 12" wont fit under my seat unless I have a $500 box made. Can I run 2 10" off the ms 5001? Or am I looking at doing a shallow mount?

I already ordered the amps and ms-8
