Started Stereo

[Dave K]

I have the Kicker dual zone systemand after some great info from Chpthrl and Phil, I was anticipating a problem running the telepone cables to the drivers console, but it went super smooth.

All I can say is go with Chpthrl's advise, drain hole port console to the steering cable hole driver console. Took about 2 minute to run a wire.

What to do and where to mount the switches?? I Didn't have time to
epoxy the KICKER remote switches up so I just taped it up for the pic.

This should be the weekend to FINALLY hear the boat stereo. I'm taking the boat in to a pro installer to do a few quick connections and to check over my work. I can't wait to hear the system....

I will report back after weekend.

I had Pyramid Audio here in Winnipeg finish up on hooking up the batteries and a few wires to the deck that I just couldn't manage the time to do. After a couple of hours everything was ready for an ipod.

Only 2 words.....absolutely awesome!! Everything that I had anticipated.

The audio guys thought the music was VERY clean with great sound to it, and he was especially impressed with the KICKER 6-pack. He thought the horns really produced well. These Kickers on the tower really and I mean really put out with the Kicker 450.2. I'm not a connoisseur of determining the perfect music sound but this setup didn't disappoint me at all.

Heres what I have:

1- Alpine CDA 118 Head unit
1- JL 12" sub
1- Sony sub amp
1- Kicker 350.4 amp
1- Kicker 450.2
1- Pr. Kicker KM6500.2
1- Pr. Kicker KM6500
1- Pr. Polk 6.5's in the bow
2- Pr. Polk 6x9's in mid ship area
1- Pr. Polks 6.5's in rear cabin
6- Polished alum pods

Thanks to Chpthril, Phil, and all the guys who helped me out on the questions and answers!!!
