New amp added, pics inside

Here are some pics of my new amp...It is an old Clarion 400x4 that has been in 2 roll overs...and still works perfectly. I got it for 35 bucks. It makes one hell of a difference in sound quality and loudness, thats for sure. My 6x9's now rattle my mirrors on their own.








So what do you all think? Let me know!

nice amp but it looks funny with two different styles and all the wires showing...

for show purposes it looks bad, for all intended usefull purposes it looks good.

I know it looks funny that way, but for now, since my car is by no means show worthy, it works great. I am going to get a JBL 80.4 sometime that way the amps match, and make a custom amp rack that can also hold my laptop and its 3,000+ songs for when I sit on main and listen to music and talk. Its taking some thinking on my part, thas fo sho. Thanx for the comments. Anyone else have some comments or suggestions? And your setup looks great dewey316. and can we see yours Kandied91z?

mine isn't anywhere near complete yet, the fiberglass is still being worked out. i can give you a few details in that the fiberglass is painted to match the car. there is clear plexi windows viewing various units as well as one to see the n2o bottle in the bottom well and a few other little trick things here and there involving moving pieces as well as the typical neon lighting.

should be finished by september hopefully.

well as for tha fiberglass it's mainly a cover, most times that's how they are done as a whole setup would be close to 2,000 just for the box.

when all is said and done i should be just under 1400 with the stereo equipment.
