Sorry to be nit-picky, either way speakers can always handle more power  |

My GTO507c arrived this morning, well happy, thought it wouldnt be till the new year.
Implicable service from Car Audio Direct, i ticked the 'text me updates' button which is free during the order, didnt expect it to work but it did, got text when it shipped and when it should be delivered which was accurate, highly recommend anyone ordering from Car Audio Direct 
Has anyone else had their's yet?

so far so good.
Tweeters and nice and crispy... haven't bolted the woofers down yet (just in case I needed to trouble shoot)... I put a layer of DynoMat in as well so looking forward to hearing these speakers in their full blown glory. Just gotta get the bedding in stage over with

Would you mind measuring the amp for us (width & depth), I'm curious to know if it will fit under the passenger seat.
Thanks.
