    What do you think of this System?

    I'm reusing some parts from my S2000. Install will be done by Myer-Emco in Falls Church.

    Reuse:
    Boston Z6 Speakers
    JL 300/4 amp to push the door speakers
    JL 250/1 to push the Subwoofer

    New:
    Alpine D310 with IPod Interface
    Alipine Crossover Controller with 4V preouts
    Boston Pro 10inch subwoofer in custom passenger footwell enclosure.
    Alpine Bluetooth or Motorola BT kit
    Some sort of Rear Camera for backing up
    Some sort of Navigation using OEM Screen Pod. Pioneer system has a nice touch screen and the Alpine has a small screen but better interface.

    I may just wait till Alpine comes out with a bigger touch screen. I wanted to have my Navigation in the JDM OEM pod so that I can still have NAVI on top and watch DVDs or choose playlists on my iPod/CDs on the screen below.

    I like having seperate amps, and I think the way the power is distributed that it should match well with the speakers/sub. I want to minimize the intrusion in the trunk and the 300/4 should fit in the parts well while the 250/1 should fit in the far right side with a custom false panel. That way I can use two seperate amps and maximize trunk space.

    Has anyone gone with a similar setup? Should I look at an all in one amp or maybe the larger 500/1 instead of the 250/1 to push the subwoofer? Any suggestions?

    Thank you.

    Where did you mount the two amps? I'd like to not have them so exposed when I open the trunk lid. Did you fit them in a similar manner as I noted above?

    Looks like I'm definately going with the NSX. If I can get both amps in the trunk well I will. JL 300/2 for the door speakers (Boston Z6) and JL 250/1 to push the Subwoofer. Now I need to figure out what I'm going to do for the Navi and DVD display. I'd like to go with the Alpine Monitor but I think it's to small. I may wait till they improve it.
