replaced bose with all alpine, install w/ pics
So I finally saved up some money and replaced the bose system, I took some pics of my new toy, the alpine IVA-W200, got type-r components in front, and type s in back, powered by an alpine v-power!, along with an alpine type-r 12" sub
here are some pics, it took about 6 hours for the install
Car in pieces
Outside picture!
Bose wiress XXX
The trunk, with the seat inside because it started raining for a second, but stopped minutes later
Back seat crossovers and speakers amp
It sounds sick, very loud and clear! No complaints here! was little worried about the alpine not having much subwoofer/speaker equalizer control, but it sounds perfect so doesn't matter anymore!

Looks good, glad it worked out.

Looks like a nice job, but nothing like advertising your new equpiment by doing the install in a parking lot.
What did you mount the sub box down with?

All the wires are hidden, nothing looks messy anymore either, just waiting for my video bypass to come in, then I will also take out the bose sub(so i will have a hole for more bass to come through) and maybe dynomat the trunk.

Hey man, check out my homepage. I have almost the same setup. I'll have that same HU in about 3 weeks too. To answer your question, I love my all Alpine setup. All of my friends are constantally trying to get something better for the price, but they havent done it in 2 years now.

I have a PXA-H701 with my IVA-W200. Works fine. (Toslink FTMFW - CDs sound AMAZING (to me)). Look in the manual for the IVA-W200, there is a section devoted to processor control. =)
The ONLY thing you can't do (AFAIK) is the automatic time correction using a microphone. No idea why though, as the mic input is on the unit, not the controller. *shrug* You can still do manual time correction, but you have to measure and do the math yourself. Not a big deal.
