BD5034's Build Log

[WheresTheButta 10+ year member]

First off I'd like to start by saying thanks for all the help and suggestions i've already received.

Now on to the good stuff.

Shopping list:

Morel Carbon Fiber Supreme 6.5" mids

Earthquake "Screamer" tweeters

Knukonceptz Karma Kable 10ga speaker wire

Two distro blocks, 4ga in 8ga out

Stinger pro series interconnects 3'

Dynamat extreme door kit

ARC audio 100.2

--All purchased and now at my house //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/veryhappy.gif.fec4fed33b4a1279cf10bdd45a039dae.gif

The install began on Tuesday when I took care of fitting the Earthquake tweeters in the stock locations. They didn't want to fit properly so i had to stretch the stock opening a little bit. They are currently hooked up to my JL 300/2 and playing loud =)

Saturday I am going to run the new speaker wire, install the distro blocks, and deaden the doors. I'll then mount the new amp and use my regular speaker wire to power the tweeters while the karma kable will take power to the morel woofers.

I'm hoping the plates that I am using for the JL ZR woofers will accept the morels, otherwise I'm going to need new plates and will be without woofers for several more days.

here's a link to my photobucket album. http://s708.photobucket.com/albums/ww85/bd3772469/?albumview=grid

I only have pics of the tweeters so far, but will be updating the album with lots of pictures throughout the weekend. If I could figure out how to post the actual picture on this forum I would.

Uploaded with 31 new pictures. I'm still not done so I'll get more as I go along.

Mids are in both doors, wires are almost done.

My sister borrowed my camera to take pictures at a wedding, so I couldn't take anymore. The install is done, though.

I have to say I am more than impressed with the Morel mids. They are rich and detailed, and uncompromisingly accurate. I actually heard parts of my music that I was never able to detect on any other stereo. The Earthquake tweeters perform *much* better now that I crossed them over a little bit higher and am feeding them less power. They are actually quite musical and will be more than enough to hold me over until I pick some high-end tweets.
