Audio Upgrades
#6
I have done several with the audison/Hertz gear, and i am sure the sound quality is phenominal.
I would of gone with the lrx6.9 for the front, and the 3.1k for the rears and sub as 3 amps would have no benefit and lower the cost slightly... I pretty much tried every configuration and it seems the best fit and the sound quality is still phenomenal.
What I do not get though is the front doors. you can easily get those speakers behind the factory door panel and have no issues or impact on sound quality/quantity... especialy the space 8 mid, which is a phenomenal driver.
The 3" HL70 they used,, which looks like the new .4 version is probably my favorite Hertz speaker of their new revamped hi energy line, the sound quality and quantity of what it is capable of is extraordinary.
I am sure they retained the steering wheel controls, as it is pretty standard now a days.
where did they mount the display for the bit1? ashtray?
Pretty cool you got it done, not how I would approach the installation, but I am **** when it comes to audio. and nit picky... but it is just me so take no offense in it

lots of questions to respond to....
as for the speakers being exposed in the drivers door, that was my request. i saw an install on a merc sl that was similar that i liked. i asked if they could mimic it.
yes there are grills for the rear speakers. i keep them off for asthetics. i rarely have large enough cargo that i need to use the rear hatch; most stuff just gets thrown onto the rear seats. if i know im going to need the rear hatch, ill throw the grills back on.
as for the amps, we worked through a few combinations and this is what worked. i forget to mention there is also a center channel.
the bit1 itself is in the passenger side storage compartment, where the factory amp was. the controller is mounted in the sunglass tray. in hind sight, i think the ash tray would be a more convenient location

Oh look it is mark richmond... did you ever find a purpose in life yet? or was it just to rack up more failures? You should never comment on installs after the abortion you performed on DR. Zak's vehicle... we even found the coat hanger that you used to perform it behind the spaghetti of wires with about 100 butt splices... you should of stuck to cutting rocks... but I heard you would screw that up also.
Talked to Zak 2 weeks ago... hmmm maybe I can ask him to comment on the great job you did??? publicly...
and as for burning down vehicles? you have me confused with your boys on the other side of town... they have a 2008 997 turbo under their belt that burnt to the ground... need pictures?
So before you go running your mouth get your facts straight

Who is Dr Zak? Think you might have me confused with someone else....which is always the case it seems with you...you seem to always be talking about some car I did, for some guy I have never heard of....
You do know that I haven’t been installing anything for over 10 years now..
It’s funny how you have pictures, and knowledge of cars burning up, as I just threw that out figuring you would have to have SOMETHING...lol
Failures? Hmmm...how many times have you started up a shop? How many different shops have you tried working for? How many "pro ball player friends" have you "partner" up with...
All too now be doing dealer expediter work....
Same old Jay.....
sorry for a thread jack fellas

Let's see, worked at 2 shops in FL, 1 in Portland Ore, 1 in Ohio all within 7 years since I traveled, then decided to open my own up, was pretty damn successful considering , made best of Cleveland, named king of Cleveland twice all within the first 2 years of my shop being open... then I was bought up by a dealership... partnered up with no pro ball players, they were just friends... all of them... so I guess if these were goals... I did quite well
