Damn I was expecting pic of a new system all glamed out across the kitchen table! I hope you do something kick ack because I'm budgeting for a full system upgrade in about 9 months. Provided momma don't find my cash.

Meh, pieces will be arriving soon. I've already got a lot of it, and some of my current stuff will be re-used. A few more amps will be here wednesday, already have most of the speakers but still waiting on the door subs. The Bit1 wont be here for a while but i've got the 880prs for processing for now.

There will be a decent amount of fiberglass involved.

Hey Ryan, at least I have a functioning system

What door speakers are you going with?

My damn rainbows cracked the aluminum cone right at the surround. I used some RTV on the crack and it's holding. But well you know... That's not going to work. I want to replace them with something with a few more db. Still waiting on the damn BM's and had they already released them I'd have a pair but now it's getting too close to Christmas to get them. Wife would kill me.

The only speakers going into the doors are some Peerless subwoofers that will be handling midbass duty (~60-300Hz). I am going to stay with my current Adire subwoofers for subbass duty as they sound very similar to the SI stuff I've heard and its not worth the cost to get the new BMs for the very minimal difference in sound. Something a tad bit of EQ can fix if needed.

Sucks about the Rainbows, I bet if you send it in they will replace it for you...they stand behind their products. Are you looking to replace them with just drop in passsive components? Or are you going to build an entire active system with individual speakers this time?

What are you talking about? I've got a set of 3-way Dyns on 300RMS.... A 3Sixty.2 and RF radio.

If you are getting rid of them, let me know.
