The old: a 2008 CDA-9887




The older: a 2005 DVI-9990


The main reason for the change was my desire to switch to a 4-way active setup.

A few changes went on the trunk as well to support the change to active.

The "old" setup:



It went from that to this

At a slightly different angle:




From inside the trunk



Another shot




and who needs a trunk light when you have a bunch of "snazzy" blue lights?




I just finished wiring it tonight so I still need to dial everything in.

There is also a bunch of wire and finisher housekeeping I need to do but that will be another day.

 

thats hot! Love the lights. I heard hanging amps upside down increased heat build up or something. Any concerns with this install? 4 way active should sound really nice once you finish tuning.

 

Mmmm...you got some very nice gear there!

 

damn,..

needless to say you took Dons setup?

 

They do run warmer upside down because you lose a not of the natural convective cooling. I am not really concerned as where I am in Canada, the ambient temperature rarely goes over 85F.

If it did become an issue, I can always rig up some small 12VDC fans to blow air across the heatsink.

 

The F1 stuffs came from one of Don's builds where the customer changed his mind.

The B-6 and SSLD6, I bought through Don a while ago.
The B-475 is a few years old. I purchased it used locally.

 

Thanks.

Don is certainly very good at making sure my PayPal account balance doesn't get too high
