Wiring up the crossovers and getting ready to put them up under the dash

My friend suggested mounting the tweeters on top of the midbass and we went with it

Before we began to put the amps back in we had to tuck the wires because the seats was pinching them

I bought mine at NW Audio in platte city for like $120.
They got them for $99 on www.sonicelectronix.com so I would buy one there. But as far as performance goes it does real good for me because I got a 600 watt amp for my subs.

Well, I am getting rid of the TMA amp back to the guy I bought it from and adding this amp to my system tomorrow to run my mids and highs and a set of Infinity 6X9's.

It matches my sub amp
