My Sporting Sound System
You won't find something exotic here. All items are in the middle range regarding pricing, but have managed to offer some pretty good sounds to my ears. At least when I hear those cracking noises when the windows are halfway down, I can mask them with this stereo system!
What's in it?
The head unit is a Pioneer AM/FM/Tape RDS/EON KEH-P7200RDS with detachable front panel and remote control.
Its max power output is 4 X 35W, while the contiuous power output is 4 X 22W.
This unit is connected to four speakers:
The front two are Limit's 4 in.(10 cm) coaxials. They are mounted on either side of the dashboard, just where Fiat intended them to be. Their continual music power is 38W, the sound pressure level is 91db. and the frequency is 100-19000 Hz.
The small front speakers are supplementing the rear speakers, which are made by ESB (18 cm dia.). They produce 100W max, 92 db sensitivity. These are mounted on the standard shelf, which was carefully cut and drilled. The funny thing is that these rear speakers require a speaker box volume of around 90 liters. Guess what! The trunk of the Sporting is almost that: 178 liters! The only problem for good listening, though, is that I should never carry anything back there!
This sound system was a rather easy fit, including the drills et al. Only the front speakers recessions were a little too tight to hold them, so they had to be rounded a little with a file! The whole operation of mounting the sound system took place at my friends' Rhapsody Car Audio, at Agia Paraskevi, in Athens.
