After my involved audio/video installation I put off tuning the audio until I had more time. Today I found the time. What else did I find? Well, my subwoofer output was set to 0, the crossover points were screwy and the gains were all set VERY LOW.

Well, after some tweaking of the settings, I cannot believe my ears!!!!

The sound is simply amazing!!!!!!!! What was I thinking putting off the tuning session!!!!!!

I know I owe you guys a better photo of the dash installation since the last one in my original thread was shadowed so here it is..................ENJOY!



Incidentally, for those that don't know, top to bottom, K40 CB Radio, Uniden Police Scanner Model BCT-7, Alpine Head Unit, relaocated Porsche ventilation controls, remote mount V1. Oh, and the movable LCD screen.

This setup really came into its own during our recent trip to the Tail of the Dragon. I was listening to the State Trooper transmissions while talking to "The Six Pack" on FRS and also making friends with the truckers on the CB. It was VERY COOL being so "Connected". I was amazed at how much chatter we create on the CB!! Whenever we pass a truck at any substantial speed, there was much to be heard on the CB!!!

KPV, your set up looks sweet!

has the police scanner helped?

and are they legal?

the remote v1 looks nice, but where did you hide the main body?

Thumbs up Extremely well done Ken ...
Some would be faint of heart if they were to see their car during the installation process.
Had to laugh when I read this ... as that would have been me! Absolutely superb job; one to definitely be proud of!
