Central Florida checking in!

[violent b]

Hello everyone,
My name is Bill and I'm a car audio addict. I've been involved with car audio for more then half my life, from doing installs for my friends to installing at Circuit City to now working for a manufacturer. Car audio is in my blood.

I hope to learn from you guys and hopefully I can help out in any way I can.

As for a vehicle, I drive a Scion xB that used to have 4 12" Bazooka subs in it but now it's just a daily driver. I have a '95 Astro at home shaved, lowered, and gutted just waiting for the audio to be installed. Now if the money would start flowing in quicker I could get more done to the van :grin:

Thanks everyone,
Bill

I got the van for free from my uncle. he was trying to sell it for $2000 and no one asked about it, go figure, so he gave it to me.
and this is what it looked like on the inside when I got the van:

it had 2 engines inside the van also for whatever reason. I gutted it and sound deadend it from top to bottom. I just want to make it loud, but not a one note wonder. I like my music loud.

xb looks real clean man. I realy like the painted trim panels around your headunit and the chopped up xbox in the dash. As for the astro looks like its going to be a fun but long project. Just dont let it turn into the next florida spl mini cooper.

[hardkorespl186]

looks clean! good detail, not to often do you see the triangles in action..

[Zade08]

who makes those triangle subs just to be nosey?

NVM... a quick google pulled up bazooka.

[violent b]

Bazooka made the subs. they were ok subs, nothing fancy. I didn't have enough power going to them to really make them hit.
that won't be the problem with the Astro, I'll make sure I have more then enough power.

[BIG RED]

looks good
