79 Bertone Sounds 'Pimpalicious'!! 200

Hey Everyone!!

Just an update with the stereo in the Coupe. I ended up going larger with a couple of components and this is what is now installed:

Panasonic Head Unit
6 1/2" Swiss Audio 3-ways in the front doors
6 x 9 Swiss Audio 3-ways in the rear
Visonik sub box with 2 10" subs
1200 W Ultra Linear Amp

I finally got some bump in my trunk. The car sounds as pimped out as it looks and is capable of making small animals explode as I drive by with the system cranked up!! I'm well on the way to my goal of turning into my hero....the great "Gabo"!! What ever happened to that crazy cat on this board anyway?

Thanks for the input and suggestions,
Erich

    Have your hearing checked once a year. Keep looking in the rear view mirror in case of emergency vehicles behind you. Also don't crank it up too loud,unless you have a source for that rear window! Just my 2 cents worth,enjoy.

      Thanks for the advice, Nelson! You don't need to worry about me though. I'm an old man (33) who doesn't listen to music very loudly. My brother gave me the sub box so I thought I might as well do it up right. The system is actually more for show than go. I put the sub box in the trunk so I shouldn't have too much pressure on the windows. When my brother first put this box in his Suburban, he blew out the passenger side window!!

      Keep drivin' those cool chop tops!!

    Dude, that sounds awesome! Would you believe I have a 1980 Bertone Volvo? How long have you had yours? I just got mine so I've got all these questions about it. I'd love to see some pictures of yours if you have any (AngryDriver@delorean.com.) Hey, maybe we can exchange some Bertone knowledge and such. Have fun and drive safely- John R.
