The install includes four Infinity Kappa 53XF Speakers, a Blaupunkt Bremen SQR46 DAB, an Alpine KTP-445U 4-channel power amplifier and an Alpine PWE-S8 subwoofer. The install was performed by Cartronics in Miami, which was recommended by Alvaro at Zweck (also in Miami) and great service by Crutchfield (who supplied the speakers).
