How to install a killer stereo for $500 (loads of pics)

[Imprezme]

Hey so i am thinking about picking up a Pioneer DEH-X6700BT really soon as my e30 came without a head unit. Probably slowly piece together what you got going on here. Would i need a wire harness for this unit?

Make it so you could hang it from the ceiling or up high against the wall so it doesn't take up any floor or shelf space:up:

Yea. You could use an old PC power supply. Wouldn't be the best, but it would work as a garage boom box! Add a cheap $10 bluetooth and you have a fun set up. Do it! I'd totally buy one! I need something for the shop - and would love to support the cause!

George Graves has spoken! Make it so Luke!

Could make it have spots for tweeters and midbass as well as a sub all integrated into a single box or something... The Luke BoomBox:rofl:

Would powering something like that be as simple as a inverter or computer powersupply?

Love what you do Luke. It is a art. I will get some stuff from you eventually. BTW, I think Matty is headed back for a visit soon.

Justin had a prototype ... I keep trying to buy it from them ... "It's not ready, blah blah blah...."

That sounds like a potential product idea to me! The Luke Garage Box!

I play my car's stereo in the garage all the time, but I'm always running a battery charger to keep my battery topped up

Luke makes specific to garage ones??????????????????

Got my 10" box the other day and it's pretty impressive. Loaded it up with an Alpine type R and have been listening to it in the garage. My only complaint is now I guess I'm going to have to buy another one for the car because I'm diggin' the tunes in the garage ...

You should have it by now, right?

Yep! Have to say, it's a gorgeous box. Just waiting to get some more money for a Kicker cvr and kicker 300.1 amp!
