First off, I'm going to town on my much loved R129 SL. I love everything about the car except the sorry excuse for sound that came through the speakers....so.
It's all coming out, and after 3 months planning, research, 4 installers and lots of great advice, first was the headunit
The car had an old Kenwood tape deck with 6 disk changer in the boot
No more
A Pioneer P88RSII headunit is in.
I love this headunit for 3 reasons
1. Asthetically it suits the car ( I also considered an Apline with imprint but it's look was far to bright for the car)
2. It sounds great
3. It came with a mic and it takes 5 minutes to set up it's own EQ. Now this won't suit everyone, but if I didn't have this, the whole car would need to be setup everytime I move from the soft top to the hard top.
Next is the 2nd stage
Amp and sub (3rd stage will be crossovers and 3ways up front, but more of that later)
I have bought
Genesis series III 5 channel amp
CDT Eurosport 10 ES10SQ subwoofer
Both of which are going in the boot in a custom build probably in leather
God those pics are big
Amp is the Genesis Series III 5 channel amp
Sub is the CDT Eurosport 10 ES10SQ
Both of these are going into the boot
A custom enclosure will be used for the sub. It only requires 0.6 cu ft so will sit really neatly above the well on the far left of the boot
The amp will be mounted where the windbreak is usually stored. The boot will then be re-upholstered in black and gray two-tone leather to match the new interior.
Following that will be Hertz HSC 163 3 ways up front.
Total budget for equipment £2,400
plus fabrication and upholstery
