a little heavy on alpine, but looks good to me - most of te sound quality is in the install and tuning anyway.

if your spending 3500 on the list of alpine stuff your getting ripped off.
you can get better equipment for 1/2 of that.

SPR-17S = 6.5" coax
SPR-17C = 6.5" coax
SPS-507 = 5X7 coax
why 3 sets of coaxes, and where will the 3 set be connected to (the 4.150 is only 4 channels). How much sound quality are you really looking for ?

does a Suzuki Carry even have enough room for 3 sets of speakers?
more speakers doesnt mean it'll sound better, it'll just be louder by a little bit. to be honest when you have the subs running and such, you won't really be able to hear any speakers that you put behind you

well, you might be served by getting some type of processor instead of havng so many pairs of speakers if SQ is your aim.

an alpine H701 (if you can still find one) or and H100 Imprint will plug staight into the W205. In fact, with the H701 you can run fiber optic W205 to H701, I am not sure about the imprint stuff. The other great thing about staying alpine is that all the control, RCA, and auto turn-on wire all included in the on AI net cable. There are also processors like the Audio Control DQS or DQX or the Rockford 360.2 that come to mind as well.

this is a great set up
if you tune this right you will hear everything and the SQ will be Awsome
:runaround:
we have 6x9s ( 1 Pair ) just in front of our 5 subs in our Gemini Panel Van
they handle 200w 100 rms on a 100 rms amp the subs are 2300w each
1200 rms and before I put the front door pods in people could not believe how good the sound was

o bviously you have never actually competed in a sanctioned event like IASCA, MECA or USACi. A pair of 6X9's and a hanful of subs (all behind the driver) would get MURDERED in imaging and staging.

Imaging is great ( the angle of the 6x9s )
the front doors have 6x9s and 6" and 4" under the dash
there is not a car in australia as audible with the doors open
register on Term Lab Metre 145 db NO Distortion and Quality second to none
We only have DB Drags here all the other comps besides what I run are crap
Myself and a Friend starting an SQ comp Using the European Rules to make it fair

The EMMA stuff is very difficult to score well on. Unfortunately, you REALLY, REALLY, REALLY need to be evaluated (judged) by an experienced judge. Just simply saying your stereo sounds better than everyone else's is not saying much when you openly admit there isn't really much competition. Problem is, I really don't anyone in Australia that really knows the competition stuff.

Im not just saying have won comps Both juged for SQ and Peoples choice
dont usualy loose peoples choice when juged on Sound. have though
if you call it A Competition judging SOUND QUALITY on install has me confused
call an apple an apple
ITS AN INSTALL COMPETITION when 70 percent of your score goes to this.
we will be getting all the info and books on the EU system . what we have found to be the fairest system in the world. will keep you updated

yeah it IS a great setup and you're obviously brand-loyal. parrotscaraudio is right, tune it the best you can and you'll get the most out of your system. remember that tracks are all mastered different and depending on where you're sourcing your music, maybe be of varying qualities too. learn how to tweak the system and have the best sound possible, every time. good luck! http://www.photopile.info/img/c/V.gif

I was gonna say before reading it all, 145.x dB (150.x at the dash or floor board) around here in the probable class you would be in wouldn't even be a 3rd place trophy in your class. SQ on the other hand is a pointless debate unless you had been judged by someone I know (know of) because there is no real point of reference to compare (unlike SPL where you get a number).
