Nice stuff... which Zapco amps are you using?

Makes me miss my 4.0 and 9.0. In due time I'll regain the 4.0, get a 6.0 and a 2.0 as well

Wow, that has to be one of the most horrible jobs I've ever seen. That is obviously your first stereo install ever. DAMN, that is clean! I just got done doing all mine, and I know you spent a LOT of quality time on that. Great job dude!

Wow! You put a lot of effort into your sound system! I've got some questions you should be able to answer after what you did.

How much sound deadening material did you end up using, in pounds?

How much of a difference do you think it made?

Are there any areas you would really suggest to use it? Any areas you think it's not too helpful?

Thanks!
