[QUOTE="skrilla22, post: 3415495, member: 579746"] Ok first off I just want to say thanks for everyone who has helped me with purchasing the right stuff.. This is my first system which is going in my 2002 Ford Explorer XLS, and I think I shopped around pretty well, including shipping and tax I got everything for a grand total of $1110.74. The only thing I didn't get yet is a yellow top and a small kinetik for the back which i'm getting tomorrow, and some speakers but haven't decided on which ones yet so that'll come next paycheck. Tomorrow will be my first install ever, so its going to be tough. I've got one of my friends coming over to help me and he's pretty good with installing systems and such, so we should be able to do it. I'll probably still end up posting some quick questions though tomorrow night. Also, I know I need a HO alternator which i'll be purchasing very soon. One more thing - Do you guys think I should be fine running at 0.5 ohms, or should I wait for the HO Alt? Should I just run it at 2 ohms for now to be safe? Will 2 ohms even be enough to make it sound decent? Anyways.. Setup: - DB Ported Box 33" Wide, 17" Tall, 20.5" Deep with 4 Cubes and a 3.75" wide port tuned to 32 hz. ~ Courtesy of vitveet. - 15" Dual 1 ohm Loaded Fi BL - Sundown Audio SAZ-1500D ~ Courtesy of ctmike. - Pioneer deh-3900MP HU - Kicker Dual Amp Install Kit - 15' Knu Koncepts Fleks Kable (For Big3) On with the pics: What a lovely site..

(Besides Alt, Batterys) What all am I going to need for the install and hooking up the wires and configuring the amp settings and HU settings?? So how do you guys think I did on my first system for a car audio noobie? [IMG]//content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif[/IMG] [/QUOTE]
