4 Chan to my fronts and rears, MRPF 300, pushing about 55 watts a channel


Cleansweep Setup, Replaces aftermarket deck, keeps my car looking stock, corrects my eq and sends it back out as flat, cuts most of the bass out, only bass I get now is really from my sub.


Older MRD 501, she pushes around 475 powers my type R quite nice


Silver knob is volume and black is for bass, no longer use the stereo volume or equalizer


Sub is out right now, have to replace it, my old type R gave out today so time to find a new one, thinkin focal, maybe boston acoustics... might go new type R.. who knows


this was what was in it though

thats all the visual stuff, I threw in Type R Coax 6x9's in the rear and Type R 6.5 Components in the front for a little more clarity and power handling


So all in all, very clean install, nothing special.. just don't have the time, next summer though, countersunk sub into th floor.. carbon fiber amp racks... all that wiring will be completely hidden.. thinking maybe double din deck, but probably just going to stay with the clean sweep.

nice and clean. although not much of a fan of having the headunit but not making use of it. (atleast for volume control) can you set up the steeering wheel controls with the clean sweep?

Do you have heating issues with those amps? I have a mrp1000 and it overheats real quick. Here's a crappy pic of my setup.

Hmm

I hate to just hijack this thread but it get too hot to touch. At this point it produces less output and has a weird smell. Almost like a fried powersupply of a computer smell ;p. This is after a couple hrs of playing though. I've tried to mount it different ways umm I played with the gain a little. No luck. I just think its a crap amp.
