Default My System install (finally)

Alright i have been working on this for a good four months now at least. I always said that i never really cared for a system install, but I since I started as a home-theater salesman at Best buy, That employee discount lured me in. (RF speaker cable: regular=16.99, me=2.99) I didnt build my system around bass either, I mostly listen to Praise and Worship and Christian Rock, So mine is more aobut clarity and loudness than bass, but that typeR still hits. I saved almost half on all the stuff I bought and everytthing came from my store excpet my two kenwoods, subthump box and rack, and Humount Camaro Z28 bracket. (still waitng on that one)

I have:
~Kenwood 9152D Mono Amp (1800 watts, 900rms)
~Kenwood 8452 4/3/2 channel Amp (70rms per channel)
~Infinity reference 6.5's in the sails ( these were in the car since i got the car, i just moved them form the doors to the sail panel
~//////lLPINE typeR SPR-17LS components in the doors/tweeters on the little triangle
~//////lLPINE typeR SWR-1042D sub wired @ ohms
~//////lLPINE CDA-9857 headunit with the iPod connection (THE MOST AWESOME THING EVER!)
~Subthump stealthbox and amprack
~Rockford Fosgate wires



my amprack-crossovers for typeR's


King Kong in my trunk:


My infinitys ( I have put the other 2 screws in since then)


The best headunit EVER!!! and the bass remote for the 9152

Looking good One concern, looks like the Type-R sub is very close to hitting the amp.

Have you test fitted the TTops in the trunk? Those can come extremely close to touching the sub.
