Spent the day at the Ice Cold Audio house of magic today with ma bwoy Mud providing the entertainment

Had an Alpine PXA-H700 multimedia manager installed. Wanted to do something to tweak the install a little as all you ****ers are catching up in the install stakes :D Couple of pics:

PXA-H700 Installed in what used to be thesunglasses holder area.

Andy retained a stealth element by allowing the standard cover to be in place

All lit up like a christmas tree

Whilst I was there, Andy took delivery of the latest JL Audio free air sub. I already had w7's, so to test, we installed them in my boot. After listening to this thing, I've told andy to leave the w7's and I'm getting two more of these put in next week. This thing DROPS!

Anyway, as always, big up to Andy for doing the work today and Mud for keeping me laughing :)

That's the BIZ! :D Congrats! PXA processor makes such a huge difference in sound cleansing. Top addition :cool:

Bro, you thinking of repositioning the flipscreen with a centering surround from BMW?

Definitely. Will wait until a couple of other projects are completed then get the centre trim. Am picking one up for another forum member tomorrow so will get the chance to take a closer look.

No probs bro, Andy's expression in that first pic is still making me chuckle.

Glad that you also enjoyed the 250 photos of trees and flowers that I had stored on the camera! :D

Will take close ups tomorrow. Mud's camera memory card was full (of boring shite)

JL Audio site not been updated. It's only just launched. I'll get pics and specs, send them to your local distributor, he should have the info.

@ Diggy. No change yet, currently sounds identical to how it was before. Need to read the manual and get it all dialled in, will do that before the Friday photoshoot meet :)

Does the flip cover still flip, or is it a push on fit?

The sub looks very interesting, is it fitted into the wheel well ? If it is, will it fit an M3 with its filled in well?

I guess andy has most probably got these sorted but ive got about a dozen specialised test discs for setting up car audio systems (iasca-coustic-autosound2000-etc) i can throw them in my boot for tomorrow night if you like & drop me them back @ next meet :)
