Hi guys, Finally I am back, gathered some courage to finally take pictures of my setup, been listening to my music ever since I was away A feast for your eyes, although the camera quality is compromised but it gives a good idea, I hope you would like my gusta..

Here is the display of JBL MS-8 mounted on left side of the driver's seat.. Only I can see it, not the passenger

View of passenger's side fiberglass pods from driver's seat..

View of the driver's side fiberglass pods from the passenger's seat..

Now, lets move inside the trunk, all three amplifiers along with JBL MS-8 are mounted on amp-racks..

This is the view of left side of the trunk, having is Focal FP 4.75LE..

Right side of the trunk has, Focal FP 1.800LE (Mono-block) with Tsunami Capacitor..

In between left and right side there is a big amp rack holding on JBL MS-8, and Focal Dual Mono Direct LE.. You can also spot Pioneer's W12PRS in 1.25 Sealed enclosure in the middle, which is usually placed in the middle facing away from JBL MS-8..

This concludes my audio system I have loved it every day, every song that I played, felt so refreshing, drove around the city with focal logo on the rear wind shield made me really proud of myself, its a dream of an audio enthusiast..

Now the surprise, I am going to re-build my setup in a different vehicle soon, some components would be upgraded, some would stay, its like you're stepping up the sound quality ladder, I hope I would achieve something even better this time.. Those who got a chance to listen to my setup are welcome to give a feedback..

Wish me luck guys.. Cheers!

PS: The sound quality gods are smiling (H)

Welcome back JEE.........I have a priviledge to demo ur system last time we met in August and i must say it sounded much much better compared to previous install. The staging is way better and well poised now. The only thing i felt was ur sub was very dry, so the next upgrade should b an awesome sub. U should seriously look into 33KX or JL 12W6

Hey welcome back bro! =D
Had a chance to hear this setup and the mid bass was in the door and felt as if it was up on the windshield and of course the pods are the icing on the top of the cake.

Thank you all my friends, the system is dedicated to each one of you, all my fellow pakwheelers Only few months ago I did not know anything about car audio, the urge to achieve something got me a long way here.. And the journey hasn't finished yet..

moonjee (moonjee) 2012-11-12 09:32:27 +0500 #433

Thanks Waqas bhai, for the compliments You're right, lets get a new sub then.. What about you get me something from kota kinabalu? I will definitely change it in the next install Insha'Allah.. Wait for the surprise, let me get enough of Kevlar then I will think about moving on to JL hehe ..

moonjee (moonjee) 2012-11-12 09:35:20 +0500 #434

Thanks coldie, haha thats called a sound stage my friend, you'll be talking a lot about it once you do it yourself.. I remember that night when we were demoing it rained like hell.. and I was like I might fry my mids... ouch!!

Good luck with your lice of car audio
