If it ran

Oh yeah, that's kinda my fault
Nessy has a fairly modern Kenny HU, and the JBL GTO fronts Hugh mentioned. Sound sweet for the money, but zero bass.

The radio it's a Philips from a Renault 21 Turbo...
Speakers only in front, Clarion.
Don't have speakers in the back.. Don't even know how to put them...
But... speaking about audio.. there's nothing like ehat I had in my previous S80 T5.. Original premium sound system...

My setup is constantly changing, it's nothing special, but I've got an Alpine CDM-9823R headunit, which I am pretty impressed with. Kenwood 4" speakers in the front mounts, Pioneer 6 x 9's in the shelf, my old Kenwood self powered sub tube will be going in at some point, along with some tweeters in the front. I've installed my mStation jukebox in this GLT now. It's basically a 10 Gb hard disk drive which stores all the mp3's in directories and runs off of a menu sytem on a wired remote with a display. It certainly beats changing CD's and carrying four wallets full of them around to get damaged, stolen or lost.

Period circa 1983 Clarion LW/MW/UHF stereo radio cassette with loudness. And a pair of none-too-special speakers whose brand I can't remember. Don't actually know if the cassette part still works, but the radio does just fine.

Sony X-plode head unit with 10stack changer
360 door speakers
sony 6x9's mounted under the front seats
Boschman 360watt amp driving a pair of 10" box mounted subs.
I need to replace the subs as one has gon pop with old age.
Also may consider a amp for the spaekers up front.

We noticed that Nev! We spotted a decent set up for the front and that you liked some decent sound in there so you have some creature comforts!

I sold Steve a pair of 5.25" RF Fanatic midrange drivers. They kicked ass for such small-framed drivers

Yes I agree, impressive for their size... The depth of them is literally half the size of my new Infinity component!
They're also up for grabs now... if anyones interested (ie. uber cheap seeing as they just wont be used otherwise!)

Clarion DB348RMP head unit and DLS B6 2-way system in front. At the back I have some old Clarion 4x3" which came with the car but I usually have them turned off with fader because they just mess up the stereo image. I should get some good amplifier and maybe sub later.
