RE: stereo install complete!

["Neal Tovsen" <ntovsen@piper.hamline.edu>]

Congrats! I LOVE my install, which sounds rather similar to yours. Before, I
wasn't sure if component speakers were really worth all the money, but now
I'm totally convinced!! I have RF Fanatic X 5/4" in the doors with the
tweeters in the fresh air vents, and the imaging is totally unbelievable.

I don't know anything about tuning ("pinging"??) my system. Do you know any
good car audio Web site URL's that I could learn from?
