Sorry took so long for the pics! Weather has been shitty past couple days. Anyway, got everything buttoned up and put togeather except the sub/stealthbox. (Funds ran out, have to wait on next paycheck) Anyways, enjoy!

some info, the alpine "r" tweeters mounted perfect in the stock transam tweeter location with just a little grinding (dremel). Everything else you couldnt even tell except for the huge amp in the back Inputs ran for channels 1-4 (front rear speakers) and rca cables are for chan 5 (soon to be sub)

Will hopefully put in the sub this next weekend :thumbsup:

HU & HUmount

Yup. One for chan 1/2 (front) and one for chan 3/4 (back). The rca's will be running the sub on chan 5.

Orly? Each speaker is getting 100w. The sub will be getting 500w. Thats more than enough.

Awesome setup man, nicely done. Lil advice, i think you can hide the wires on the amp more creatively. It look so much cleaner when you dont see any wires. Look into that, shouldnt be too hard to do.

Thanks, yeah I agree. In fact i already have a box that covers the intire amp rather well that I'll be using, I'm waiting on my sub to get here and I'll post pics (should be here tomorrow)

SUB CAME IN! =] Had just enough daylight left to stuff it in the stealthbox and hook it up to the amp to test it. All i have to say is JESUS! my ears hurt after about 10 mins of just playing around with the crossovers! Fiished Install =]

Oh and I got to thinking about ways to hide the amp wires, ima see about having/making a box that will flush mount the amp with the carpet =]

LOL!!! "JESUS"
I've had alot of luck with that amp. It does very well. The 5-channel amps are very good at what they do. All in one power for everything and fully adjustable. I just got a hold of 2 Clif Design CD80.5LX older model 5-channel amps that are sick. They are 2500watts. The newer version CD80.5LX is only 1400watts but it shares the same model number. They were on the bottom shelf at my distributor and covered in dust. I happened to notice them and the model number but the power rating was different on the box. I grabbed both of them. The power ratings on them are:
4 x 100watts RMS @ 4ohms (13.8volts) + 280watts RMS @ 4ohms
4 x 200watts RMS @ 2ohms (13.8volts) + 520watts RMS @ 2ohms
The amp is a full range Class-D amp as well. It is extremely underrated from what I was told and is over 2 feet long (25.7" long). I can't wait to get mine in. My most recent amp is a 2001 Rockford Fosgate Power Series 600.5 and was very powerful. No way was the power rating of 50watts x 4 and 180watts x 1 even close to what that amp puts out. The birthsheet said it tested at 740watts RMS @ 4ohm and it is a 2ohm stable amp.
The Cadence amp is no exception. That amp puts out exceptional power and I am confident that the FXA-5100 puts out more power then it is rated at as well.
Looks good man!! I really like the HU with the HUMount.
