I'm so excited, I ordered the HU along with install kits, here is what I have on the way.

Kenwood KDCX797
Metra Axxess ASWC-1
Metra 99-9600
Biketronics BT7P1

I'm out of $$ for this project so I have to wait to add an amp. Other than the amp, ;-) what else do I need for the install? Cables, wire, pointers, whatever? thx

 

Sit this on the back burner to keep you motivated:

Those 7.1 Biketronics speakers are going to need an amp! (if course you can find one much cheaper than Crutchfield)

 

Nice looking install kit for sure. And it's already got me motivated. Found the same kit for about half that online. So you recommend going with the 8 AWG kit over a 10 AWG? How about amp will the PBR300X2 be sufficient or will I be leaving anything on the table with it? I'm only doing the 2 speakers. I do want FM reception.

 

Nutz always recommends 8 gauge. The PBR300X2 will drive those speakers well. But if you want max gratification at speed with two speakers go Biketronics 2180. Happyness is expensive!

 

that PBR300x2 makes a LOT of people happy with those speakers.

 

I agree. But when asked is he leaving anything on the table my answer would have to be yes.

 

I agree. there are plenty of more powerful amps out there but for the $ and simplicity of install, can't beat it.

 

I just ordered a SS 4.520 on eBay for $113 with free shipping! I'm hopefully going to have a nice sounding RG!!!

 

I was afraid you guys were going to say that. ;-) I'm really interested in hearing about that new Cerwin B2. I do like that the RF 300x2 has been so well documented, thanks UltraNutz. I'll keep researching for a couple of weeks and save my pennies. The new HU and speakers will hopefully keep me happy for a while.

 

I'm sure you will. nice deal.
