Amazing. Its a beautiful system but after time it's beginning to rattle the rear deck. It's going in for Dynamat over the next week and I hope it solves the problem. It's to the point where I dont even want to hear the system because the rattleing is bad.. but pre-rattleing it was amazing. Hits so hard.

Do you have any pictures of your trunk setup? I found a couple things to make the air get into the cabin better if your interested in making it a lil louder.I'd post some of mine but it's kinda ghetto

did you upgrade the interior speakers as well? if you do i suggest running the pxa-701 processor (i think that's the model), it ups the crappy outputs of the W200 deck to 4volt and allows you to do dolby digital

good choice on subs and amp

Nope, stock speakers and it still sounds amazing. I have all the bass coming from the trunk, thats probably why.

Heres an old picture of the box when I first got it setup.




As far as getting more sound into the car, I removed the stock subwoofer.

I removed the trim wall seperating the gas tank and the trunk area and i thought it made a bit of a diffrence. Our cars arnt really that great for systems with the gas tank where it is and the metal behind the back seats but o well
