    Another "Luke Kicks Ass" Thread

    LUKE!


    We all know Luke makes great boxes and offers awesome customer support. Although it's been nearly a year I was being lazy and had not yet made a thread telling of how he helped me. My car is a '89 325i that I bought while on my two-weeks of leave during my recent deployment to Iraq. Before I came home I bought 4 component speakers from Sonic Electronix and had been e-mailing luke with questions and ideas about my system. When I got home he said he'd sell me a "Luke Box", 2 amps (one for my speakers, one for the sub) a 10" sub, and install everything for me for an amazing price. For the deck I bought an Alpine IDA-X305 since I wanted to use my iphone in my car. It worked great until the new software updates screwed up the compatibility but I'm pretty sure thats not Luke's fault. The system sounds amazing and the install is very clean, Luke has very high standards when it comes to his installs and I appreciated him hooking me up. He has always been very cool about answering all my dumb questions and stands behind his products and work 100%. He is a huge credit to our community. If you have not boughten a Luke Box yet, you'd be a fool to not use some of your tax money and snag one.

    Thanks again Luke,

    The box fits so snug that on 325s you need to take out the dense matting that helps the car maintain it's 50-50 Balancing:


    Under this panel are some beastly 5.25" speakers. This part took quite a bit of work but Luke got it to fit perfect:


    Premium Speaker Pods:


    Installing the speakers on the rear shelf.


    Moving the box into position:


    Luke securing the box to the back seat:


    Very Nice!


    The Amps and Crossovers on a board ready to be mounted to the back of the box:


    Mostly done, Luke did a little tidying up at this point. I'm an idiot and didn't take any pictures of the back at the end of the install, but you get the idea.

      I bought while on leave, and when I came home for good Luke did the install. But yes, I did spend half of my R & R on Craigslist looking for my car.:up:

              That dinky little Pioneer is 35W X 2 RMS or 140W RMS on a 4 ohm load with an infinity 1060W. The Alpine is 35X4 RMS on 4 ohms. The car sounds bad ass, especially considering the damn hillbilly punk stuff he listens to!

              Closing SOON!

                Sadly enough, I spend 80% of the time in my car listening to podcasts :yawn:
