Default Alpine Subs & Amp installed.

About two weeks ago i got my system installed!
I have two 10" Alpine Type S subs & Alpine MRD-M605 Amp. My box is sealed. So far im loving everything about it. Hits really hard, and also sounds really clear in the cabin of the car.

Here are some pics:

Personally, I'm not a big fan of the "drop a box in the trunk" installs. I know it's cheaper and easier, but there are nicer ways to install audio. But, as long as you're happy with it.

Honestly Guys Trunk Space wasnt really an Issue for me. I dont use my trunk alot, and its true now i dont have to make any airport runs lol.I still have some room on either side of the box, which is fine for me. The system sounds great and subs put out so much bass that it shakes my gas tank cover. Im loving it so far!
ECR527: The amps mounted directly on the back on my box.

Nope what your seeing is actually where the wires connect from the subs and run to the amp.
