Mopar 10 Registry

I found this very interesting...The runt of a speaker is what the factory passes off as a device to emit sound waves....the Boston Acoustic is something that I had to buy to get the extra baffle to modify...and the monster Infinity is what I'm putting in to take the place of the lowly 130 4-Speaker 6x9...

This is a big part of the reason why I want to know if your M10 was a 130 or 430 car in the registry list. The 130 4-Speaker is honestly one of the worst factory systems I have ever heard and it offers nothing to overcome that. The fact that this pos would even be put in a car like the Mopar 10 still ticks me off. Imo we should have all had the top-of-the-line sound system. These speakers and the 130 that powers them don't belong in any vehicle, let alone the Mopar 10!

Dude, great vid what a difference! How did you make out ? Did you get it done , if so how's it sound?

Thanks...it is a big difference...especially anything "decent" compared to the 130 4-speaker stuff. Tearing into it all made me feel completely justified complaining about the stereo/soundsystem as much as I did, lol.

I have 3 of the 4 speakers in...just lack modifying the driver's side door pod and of course reassembling everything. We've got a cruise Saturday that I am hoping to make although I don't think there is any way I'll have the amp rack done...I might just find a way to temporarily anchor it and drive slow (for a change, haha).

When I fired the right-rear Infinity it completely covered up the left-front factory speaker that I was about 18" away from

Last night I pulled the factory left-front and ran the three Kappas (RF, RR, LR) and it sounded awesome! I had the deck volume on 5 and could hear it 50 feet away at the work bench as if I had ear-buds in and an iPod in my hand.

I've never really cranked it up yet, but it hellaciusly loud at just 10-12.

My goal was never to bounce ping-pong balls or rattle trunk lids, but just to have music with great clarity that I could hear with the windows down. The factory 130-4 Speaker would just fadeout on our backroads at 60 mph and a window down...I would crank it to 18-20 to just "hear" the music and it was distorted pretty bad.

I ran errands tonight, but I'm hoping to get home from work tomorrow night, mod the driver's side pod (I ordered in spares, which is how I got the Bostons...the factory 130-4 Speaker stuff just gets boxed, lol), put sound deadener on both doors, re-install the panels, and get to the cruise.

I will break the system in for awhile and see how I like it...I am have tempted to order in an 8" sub while the rear deck is apart, lol. If I want more lows out of the system I could just wind up with a powered sub to make things easy.

All I can say is just one of the Kappas is a huge upgrade over the entire 130 4-Speaker set-up. Chrysler shouldn't put this system in anything and it sure as hell doesn't belong in the Mopar 10! This is a big reason I'm interested in the 130-430 breakdown on the registry.

Lol, I hear you and agree whit you, lots of things should have been much better than what we got!!! And it's sounds like you still got a lots of work cut out yet, all the best whit it . And yea just try to drive slow,.. I've tried... And yea no just couldn't do it. Lol!

I won't make it to cruise night with the stereo complete...I'll take the truck instead. It was so cold in the shop last night the glue wouldn't hold and I got tired of my nose running around 11 PM.

I might leave our cruise night early to get back home and work on it....Don't lack much.

I buttoned the car up last night...I just lack mounting the amp and then reattaching the trunk trim.

I have a lot of pics/vids to process on the entire install.
