In digging through some old pictures, I came across the pictures of my car audio system from 1994. This was built into a 1993 Honda Accord EX with the sole intention of entering IASCA competitions. While the scene has certainly changed since I was in the game, the sound remains the same. Loud, quality audio systems that reproduce a concert-level music atmosphere.
The system took first in every competition entered, and even took best of show in the 1994 Car Toys season finale. I managed to snag enough points for a nationals invitation, but bought a house and didn’t have the funds to compete at the national level.
The system consisted of the following components:
- Alpine In-Dash CD Player
- Alpine 6-Disc CD Changer
- Alpine ???? 7-Band Parametric EQ
- Alpine 3656 Active Dividing Network
- (2) a/d/s/ PQ-10 Amplifiers (bridged to 2×100 for tweeters and midranges, one amp per channel)
- (1) a/d/s/ PQ-20 Amplifier (bridged to 2×200 into the subwoofers)
- Boston Acoustics Pro series 6.5″ midrange and 1″ tweeter, custom mounted into stock locations
- Clifford Alarm System with Remote Start, Window and Sunroof Automation
- Optima Red Top second battery
- 1F Stiffening Cap
You can see pictures of the system in the gallery.
