decided to start my bass install

So I have a 10" Kicker CVR in a slotted box w/a Pioneer GMX962 amp. Today I took out the amp and cleaned it, then painted it with this Dupli-Color iodized paint look, wasn't bad for a dry run of the paint. Might redo it later (if the amp still holds up till then) and remove all the paint till it's metal, then repaint and clear coat with a new diagram and company badge (found an old Pioneer house amp in the shed).

kept the end plates the same because of the diagrams on them.

next I will be installing my Schoche (sp) 4 channel line-in inverter I got. and run in the power/gnd wires for the amp along with the remote wire. Still need to buy some 10g speaker wire but it can wait.

 

haha nice color looks good

 

swapped that one out for a DEI 1500x, that Schoshe 4 chan. LOC was garbage, was a DOA prod. so exchanged it for a bass knob from Schoche, actually works lol. tested it as soon as I got it (got it in my change cubby) using a reg. one chan. LOC, which btw, is freaking AWESOME!!!!! didn't even cost much ... IT WAS FREE!!!!
have to get me the rca's later today or tomorrow though, going to need to redo the routing of the rca's and hopefully get my Alpine MRVT303 in for the front set-up (haven't decided on comps or just 9's).

DEI


Knob



next on my list, along with deciding on what to put up front.

 

MY PB's came in today!!!! WOOOHOOO!!!! almost there, just need some more of the little things and I'm GO TO GO!!!




hope to get this done before/by next month so I can roll happy for new years lol.
