Oxygen Audio M2.5k - have it (soon to be AB VFL 200.1)
4 15" RE SE's with FI baskets and soft parts - have them ( soon to be 4 15" AB XFL's )

Box will be ~16cuft@30-32Hz

Will be all Audio Technix wire, Stinger RCA's.

Started at the Headunit:

I know people are gonna ask why i didnt run a double din, its because no double din offers the tuning options i need since i am goign to be running active.

Tweeters:

These pillars are temporary because im not sure if i will run 2 or 4 vifas, i gotta make sure they can keep up with my substage. As soon as i find what i like they will be fiber glassed and color matched.

the digital display is my voltage, you gotta keep an eye on it when running 4k+ watts not trying to smoke a $700 amp. the right switch is for the volt meter, the middle switch is for my mono amp, and the left switch is for my highs / mids, thats so i dont have to unhook my amps when setting all my gains.

yeah sorry. Got the SQ-500 and SQ-945 in, have to build something to get the second pair of Dayton mids in, and found out 2 Vifa tweets wont be enough, good thing i made baffles on my pillars big enough for 2 on each side. So im gonna swap the SQ-500 for a SQ-475 to run the 4 Vifa's.

My M2.5k ended up being thrsashed from getting dropped in shipping so i am running all 4 15's on a AB ph2500 for temporary so they are all seeing like 175 watts each right now... lame as hell. But until i can afford a $700 VFL200.1 the PH2500 will have to do. It still gets fairly loud and makes my exhaust rattle something awful, no videos until i get the power i want in there. Box is 16cuft@31Hz and was a ***** to get in, i measured about an inch too big for the depth and we almost weren't able to flip it so the subs would face up. thought i was gonna have to run it facing forward for a minute. Still lots more work coming, lots of trim and interior beautifying coming up. Just wanted to be sure it was gonna fit before i put a bunch more work into it. got a show to go to this weekend then after that i will have plenty of time to rip it all out and clean it all up and swap the amps and what not.
