alrite, im not saying i have the the best SQ (sound quality) ICE FTO in Melbourne, but i would like to know others that have something in the same league.

Clarion DXZ825 dual 24-bit processors
Viper 5-Channel 1300W Amp
Kenwood 3-way , 6 X 9 speakers
Boston Acoustics 2 way FS
3 Clarion Pro Audio 12" subs in custom enclosure
Blaupunkt 24-bit DVD/CD/Mp3 player
Blaupunkt 5.6" monitor in custom enclosure on passenger side dash

Also ran a 136dB without tuning it for SPL.

Hopefully i can show my ICE to FTO enthusiats (that im dying to find) on some cruise day.

And for people that are considering buying Alphine, please dont as they are WAY over priced for what they are.
Im not saying they are bad speakers, they are actually quite good, but there are far better alternatives at far better prices.

P.S did you get them yourself, or they're already came with the car when you brought it???

got to remember that I.C.E isnt just speakers and sound, you gota throw in a PS2, Xbox, TV, computor or something else that "passengers" can play with, just gives the whole I.C.E system in you car that show room finish.

dont get me wrong though, you I.C.E is damn fine, how much did it all set you back?

so you're coming to the Mallacoota cruise??

:D

next meet is the 29th May for the eXclusive dyno day - we'll have a premeet beforehand for those who are interested.

the system set me back a fair bit even though nearly everything i purchased was at cost price. I know too many professional installers

im not too interested in the whole ps2, xbox thing, plus i've ran out of room!! DVD player in glove box!

GPXXX I'll definately be at the dyno meet, pre and afterwards. Wont put my car on the dyno though, i only got an air filter and cat back exhaust.

thats no excuse...
with only the small 'exhaust mod' developed by unique/steve and stock air box i pulled 102kw atw at the sydney dyno day(the 2nd highest of the day)

so dont let a lack of mods stop you, besides its a good 'base' measurement for future additions(despite the 'dyno graphs dont mean anything' argument its still a 'indication')
