Some of these are components that were installed in my car. I sold the Kicker ZR240 (black amp on the right), and the KX600.1 that had replaced it as well. I also sold the 12" Solobaric L7.

Here are some pictures of the Kicker KX600.1 single channel class D amplifier(2004 model), it is a mono block amplifier. It is rated at 300 watts RMS at 4ohms & 600 watts RMS at 2ohms. The performance sheet that it came with states that it is putting out 740 watts RMS at 2ohms. It has a remote bass level control that I was able to adjust from the driver's seat. It also has an adjustable bass level controller.

Pictures of the KX amp without the endcaps. It is actually pretty compact without the endcaps on, in case space is at a premium.

This is the remote gain controller for the Kicker KX600.1 subwoofer amplifier. It use to come in handy for adjusting the sound for the different types of music I listened to.

Here are a few pictures of my previous head unit, an Eclipse CD8454. This is a great head unit with excellent sound, thanks to the 24bit DAC's. The deck has 3 sets of 8 volt preouts, with a resistance of 55 ohms. It has a memory stick slot for recording music (Atrac3), as well as recording snapshots of the system's frequency response. You can then log on to the Eclipse website and upload the information on the memory stick to fine tune your system with the parametric EQ. I think that this is very helpful as you can see where your peaks and dips are on you system and adjust accordingly. Other parameters such as crossover, and time aligment can also be adjusted on the website. All of these settings can also be done on the deck. The deck can be configured in two ways, simplified mode, and pro-mode.

Here are the Kicker ZX460 and ZR240 amplifiers. The ZX460 is a 4ch. amp that I had since around 1997. The specs on it are 30 watts RMS x 4, but this was when Kicker really under rated their amplifiers. I have it configured to put out a little over 100 watts to the front speakers and around 50 watts to the rear. The ZR240 was putting out about 350 watts RMS to the sub. The ZR240 has a Kicker RGX Module wired to it. The module acts as both a 24db/octave subwoofer crossover, and as a remote gain for the amplifier. It comes in handy for adjusting the output of the amplifier for different types of music.

This was from when I had my Alpine MRD-M501 installed.

Good job with you're car. Very tasteful mods. I like how you made that amp rack right behind the back seat. I used to have my sub sitting in the same place just facing in, definately loved how it sounded. Now that I have two I like the way they are positioned in my trunk, as I'm sure you've already seen.
