LOL, far from bored. I enjoyed going over it again.

Thanks for the offer on the amps. I love them, but am waiting on the new stuff myself.

Hopefully I will run into you at a show sometime. I would love to hear it.

I have been a big fan of Kenwood head units for a long time. They do have great features and great quality too. I am going to miss my double din touch screen. Just cant see me cutting up a metal dash to make one fit.

We just got finished watching Real Steel on the Kenwood ... It was well worth cutting up my dash for ... amazing unit ...

Carpeted and installed a new bottom piece for the amp rack ...
In these pics you see the fuses and distribution blocks installed on the amp rack ... but that idea went away real quick ...
The only thing you will see on that amp rack are three Linear Power Amplifiers ...

No Sir, I was dreaming ... Ray has other plans ...
2150 on the components and a 2250 on the subs ... and later, a 2075 on the center channel ...

Still outstanding. I placed my order a few weeks back so it will be awhile before I actually get mine. I can be patient though so they are the best they can be.

I will be running the same amps, but an opposite configuration; 2250 on front stage and 2150 on subs.

2250 on what front stage ... he will not let me hook one up to my 6.5 component set ... too powerful ...
Might want to chat with Ray on that ...

Blues 6.5 components. Ray knows my plans. I ordered them awhile back. I like overkill.
