[sati]

Here is Proof To Few Members That Said I Was Talking Cr@p About Buying This. Well After Saving Hard I Put In My Order For My Orion System Costing £1.3K!

What i Ordered:

2x 15.2 Orion Hcca Subs (dual 2 ohms) - £250 each
2x Orion D5000 Amp's (2.5k rms) - £400 each

Heres A Few Pic's:-

So what car is all this expensive stuff going to be put in then?

[sati]

well the box will be to big to fit in to an e30 saloon , so it will either go in an Ford Escort or Golf Mk2/3

[miniblob]

Just lose the back seats and whack it in an E30!!!!!!!!!

Should sound good when it's done!!

Back in the day I had 4 competition Orion 12"'s in a Granada Scorpio!!!!!!!!! Sounded awesome!!!!!

[sati]

lol , will love to to rip out rear seats and do it, but for my car to entered as "daily driver" the install has to be 100% in boot. and an mk 2 golf or escort is quite square and hachback so its easy to just drop the box in. each subs weight is 40kg and amps are around 7-8kg and then he box is going to be a ton (22mm) and then the extra batterys so space will really tight in an e30.

Very nice.

What cabel you using with it ?

What you using for mid and top ??

Loll i thaught i was crazyy lol ur worse in a good way that is. I've got exactly he same at home costing me slightly more got a capacitor too. Im thinking of sticking it all in my cab and then fitting screens aswell thats four of them not two. Im just waiting for the sh11117 whether to turn. Meanwhile just looking for a decent head unit to run it all on and a Zero gauge wiring kit. A few pointers if i may add you probably got your own ideas but this is what i was told would be the best; Dyno matt any bare metal, Run a alternator splitter to the boot, Stick another battery in the boot so the length of wire going from the battery to the amp is not as long so will carry the full charge, and then have some decent speakers if not all you'l be hearing is bass bass oh and basss lol . Thats what i was told you probably got your own plans. Nice install though going to keep a watch on this. Good luck mate. Keep the pictures posted

Going to be sounding bassy Sati, awesome choice. Stick in an E30 if you can, or even a cab . Can't wait to hear this

[sati]

Imys your joking right all this in a cab! , it was hard to get system for your normal sized 12" then these oversized 15" well there 17" lol , i alway buy from 2 store 1st) Car Audio & Security 2nd) Delta Car audio (local store ownen by my uncle) ,

Going to be looking at double layering the Dynamat , been looking in at comp alt's cracking out 300amps of juice and dont waste money on yellow tops! Get some leisure batteries either By Numax or Elecsol there cheaper then yellow's and have loads more power - better bang for buck,

well for top end depends on which car mk2/mk4 golf or escort. but got an 1k rms 4ch amp ready for tops, double "0" power cables and 6 awg for subs. i found sum old skool longmill comps thats ive go my eye on. the subs will go in a ported box about 6.5 -7 cuft tuned to 28/30hz

[ImysE30]

Maybe not then lol. What you need is a touring, plenty of room in that
Either way it going to be sounding awesome

[sati]

stop giveing me idea's! lol , i think i will need 2 more to fill the boot, and wont need to lower it the weight of teh system will drop the car nicly ,lol

[zaust]

Good choice there.

See if you can find some old skool ribbon tweeter's as your going this far .

[sati]

lol , why go for £15 ebay jobies when you can go for sum Pioneer PT-R100 and quite cheap only £1,850 for an pair!! i think 98db is too lould for tweeters!


Pioneer PT-R100

[Jhonno]

Hmmm think I could think of far better things to spend £1300 on.. Then again I just like a nice sound for me, not all da bitches walking down the road.. 200yrds away..

[jbh]

get it all put into a touring loads of space for it and would be ideal as a daily driver

[sati]

lol , i want to but i will have to find one really cheap , and even the 1.6 tourers anit cheap 2 insure , but an escort is like group 4 or 5 which is gud not that costly to insure and got new springs and backbox and k&n for it for an mk6 escort. wen i move out from london to chatham for uni the prices drop £1K right away.
