    My Audio Install

    Thanks! I am probably going to leave the speakers uncovered. I have found in the past that grilles make a difference to the sound, and as I am the only one that uses the car, I am not too worried about them getting knocked. We have an S-MAX that the wife and kid trash this is my "keep nice"...

    My Audio Install

    Finally got the stereo playing in the last few days. It's gonna take a while for the new speakers to run in properly and loosen up, but it is sounding better each day at the moment. Thinking about adding an Audio Conrol DQX - this is a 30 band EQ and 3 way crossover. With this I can RTA the...

    My Audio Install

    It's not playing yet as I still need to get the head unit in, but should only be a couple of days now.

    We use Websense and block the discussion forums category :sorry: But, since I manage the Websense server, that's no longer a problem for me! :p

    Hello from West Sussex

    Nice. I've not owned one of them - I have tended to stick to M3's as I love the SMG gearbox, but I do like the M5's very much too. I'm sure you are enjoying it! :sign_unfair:

    My Audio Install

    I'm going to be using an Alpine iXA-W407BT http://www.alpine-electronics.co.uk/products/details/digital-media-station/ixa-w407bt-1.html It doesn't have a CD or DVD drive in it. It is designed to play from an iPod or USB hard drive. As I have all my music converted to MP3, I don't really have a...

    My Audio Install

    So, this evenings work... A few days ago, my brother gave me some carbon fibre looking vinyl. As my trim is badly scratched, I tried covering my gear surround with it. I'm open to opinions on this as I havn't made up my mind if I like it or not yet. I bought a CD changer to co with my new...

    My Audio Install

    I'm a member on Talk Audio, but I rarely post. Once I have completed my install, I may think about competing depending on how it sounds! A mate of mine used to own a car audio shop, so I used to get stuff at trade price which was nice. I bought 3 bulk packs some time ago from him, but never...

    Hello from West Sussex

    You are welcome anytime, but let me get it finished first! Should be only a week or so! Just need to get the passenger door speakers in the car and the head unit installed and then set it all up. I'm hoping it's going to sound pretty good!

    Hello from West Sussex

    Actually, I am getting to like it more now. Still think I prefer the 535d, but the Audi is still a nice car, and now I have nearly got all my audio in, it should be even better. Er, yeah.... had 1 or 2 of them! Just too un-economical to justify now! Thanks for the welcome guys!

    My Audio Install

    Thanks. I tried posting pics from twitpic as I have already posted them there, but for some reason Twitter do something funky to make the pics not visable. Anyway, I've hosted them myself now so should be ok now.

    My Audio Install

    Hi, Just thought I would post a couple of pics of my install that is nearing completion. I have got some build pics so if anyone is interested, let me know and I'll post more up. The system consists of Focal 165 K2P 6.5" mids and Tweeters up front in custom door builds. These are run actively...

    Another dash trim option

    Thanks. I had seen that post already actually. It does look good and I will probably end up doing the same if I can't find a way of doing the interior like the pic I posted above.

    Another dash trim option

    I've seen a few topics about carbon wraping interior trim panels, which I quite like the idea of, but I have also seen trim in a marbled black, or black maple effect like the pic below: My trim is quite badly scratched and I would like to wrap it in something similar to the above. Anyone...
