I play my mp3 player through a aux cord from monster cable. I had to run it under the carpet and up to the radio. It blocks a lot of frequency noise that can distort your sound.

These are my speakers, Infinity kappa 680.7cs all around, front and back for the perfect sound stage (The picture is the front driver side).It cost around $120 plus shipping on ebay. I put dynamat around all the speakers and dynamat reverb cushions behind all the speakers as well ( You can't see the reverb cushions because I didn't take pictures of the install. It's supposed to help with harmful distortion but I really can't tell except for the tighter bass.

Since it's a component, I had to custom mount it (Velcro!)

You really can't see the tweeter because it's mounted behide the factory grill. You can I ran Monster cable all through out the car for higher fidelity and clarity. It also help block certain frequency noise with the insulation. I bought three spools of it ( It cost around $65 total for all speaker wire) because I had to run it through the rear and front door jams. If you plan doing this just ask me and I'll post pic's of how to run speaker wire through the front driver side.

This door connector can be a bitch if you don't know how to do it.

These are my rear speakers. I don't have the pics of this either but as you can see. You can see where I mounted the tweeters on the rear panel.

Took me a while to figure out the mounting area for the tweeters.
but it worked out fine.

This is the power house and the heart of my system. My MTX amp TA5604. Cost about $185 shipped from ebay. I had a budget system before the infinity speakers, mtx, and the new HU. The last thing thats stil budget in my system is my subs Dual 12 600w rms from Bestbuy and amp kit with the schoshe cap. They cost about $230 brand new all together. There the last to get swapped out. The subs I'll be getting it's own amp so I won't over work my little amp that's made for the speakers.

This are my subs. Nice box, not so nice subs but very good for starting out from what I heard.

There will be more updates so keep posted!
