    In what world is this "affordable" for a teenager? Those amps alone have a MSRP of over $3k combined. Plus the rest of the system and materials.
    I love my PS8-50, therefore I love Arc Audio.
    Also, there's a review of the PS8-50 and it fell short of it's power ratings. And when I say it fell short, it was very minimal. 46x8/187x4 (8ch/4ch @ 4 ohms), so at least the version before didn't put out more than rated, but I'm not overly concerned with that.
    Love the products and also the customer support. Keep it up!

      Compared to a lot of systems that are out there delivering what this car has been able to accomplish sound Wise it actually is very affordable.
      Without the addition of the secondary sub amplifire for testing purposes it was a 6k target.

      And I will mention This was more of a father son project than a marketing project.
      Although he loves the way it sounds and is still trying to figure out exactly how we got it at the sound the way it does. I am positive at his age. He still truly does not appreciate what he has at his fingertips.
      As I mentioned in the video, if you can do it, show them how to do it right from the very start.

      @PureSQNut and please don't let my comment take away from what you guys did. I love that you two did it together. And you're assuming him in the right direction. He's lucky also that your product line is very reputable at SQ. I did the same with my son about 8 years ago.
      They never really Tyler know what they have, especially in your case. I love my PS8-50 and couldn't be happier with it.

      @@PureSQNut and honestly, with kids and the way things are today, a $3k budget is more the reality. Still achievable with what's at his disposal. Blackbird and do either 2-way front with rears or 2 subs, 3-way front with no rears and a single sub.
      It's a great install nonetheless.

    Hi Fred! Great work! I wanted to know if there were any rear speakers? If so, which ones? What are the 2 Nighthawks powering & watts going to each speaker or woofer? Thx! Hope you & your family are doing well!

      There are 2 night Hawks in there. Because I wanted to make sure he had the ability to test just about anything. I wanted to drop into it subfor wise, so currently post. Show open Canada. It is now running one nighthawk per sub, simply as an abuse test for the subwoofers.
      At the show, it was one night hawk for both subwoofers.
      The vehicle still does have rear speakers in it If he ever wanted to have some rear fill, but as he said completely not in his interest at this point because he likes what's up front.

    is the amp rack mounted to the back of the box box?

    • @PureSQNut
      @PureSQNut 4 місяці тому +1

      It's a separate panel in a basic shadow box style config mounted to the metal opening between the trunk and the back seat and then the carpet is pulled over the edge and under factory panels backed with tac glue (not permanently glued) to make it look molded.
      The box is stand along and mounted with a bent piece of metal to the floor and then trimmed with cheap 1/4" Masonite and a little bondo to blend the edge and then carpeted. Lighting was purchased from Amazon for about $12.
