Thought I'd do this right and check-in here and say Howdy to all especially Durango Boy who I haven't chatted with since He knows when. Hope to be around often.

Dang, Thanks a bunch, cool getting all these nice comments. Here's another of the speakerboard I built up, 2 6 1/2" CDT coax (Thanks to Durango Boy) and a 9" Pioneer shallow sub powered by the Hifonics 5 channel 750 watt amp. Again thanks to Matt for turning me on to www.woofersetc.com, awesome deals there. Also in there is the 10-disc player and some different courtesy lites in the board.

So how do you like that pioneer shallow? Happy with the CDTs I take it? I'm glad I could help, feel free to ask if you ever have more questions.

It definately won't handle all that amp has to offer but does real well. It WILL rattle the car. Besides, the next bigger one wouldn't have been shallow enough. Had only about 3" to play with between the speakerboard and the body after insulation was in.
