Luke's definitive I.C.E. Install Guide for the GTV
:: Well, it doesn't come any more comprehensive than this. Luke has replaced almost every component of the
internal sound system and added some superb hardware. If you have any questions about any aspect regarding
I.C.E for the GTV, its most probably answered here!

3 – Wiring modifications for the head unit
4 – Fitting a CD Changer
5 – Replacing the speakers
6 – Fitting an external amplifier
7 – Fitting a subwoofer
It seems that when Alfa Romeo built the GTV, they decided that the sound of their glorious engines
were musical enough and neglected to fit a quality stereo. For those of us who own a GTV V6, the
charms of that wonderful, warbling V6 are evident, but sometimes we do want to listen to some
music, and let’s face it, the standard fit equipment is just appalling. There is only one thing to do –
change it.
What I have tried to do here is to create a step-by-step guide on how to install a new sound system
into your GTV. I have built it up over a number of chapters, each one getting more and more high-
end. You can read on as far as you like, depending on your budget and the results you want to
achieve from upgrading your in-car entertainment (ICE) system.
1 – Planning
Before you do anything, you need to figure out how far you are going to take things. There are two
key elements to consider here. The first is budget, think about how much you really want to spend on
a project like this and stick to it. If you like, you can stagger your investment, slowly adding
components as you go along, but if you do, make sure that the components you fit now will be
compatible with the ones you are planning to fit in the future. Secondly, think about how important
high-quality sounds are to you, for example, think about the kind of stereo you have at home. If, like
me, it is very important then you might go the whole way. However, this is bound to be too much for
most people, work out what you want to do and match it to your budget.
There are four key elements to any in car entertainment system. First of all the head unit. This is the
heart of your system, so choose very carefully and work out if you want to add a matching CD-
changer. Secondly, amplification – Do you want to use the amplifier in your new head unit or do you
want a separate power amplifier, perhaps even multiple power amplifiers? Thirdly, the speakers.
These are critical, the speakers you choose will dictate the way the sound is delivered. If you are
adding off-board amplifiers then you’ll need to ensure that your new speakers will be able to cope
with the power you are going to be throwing at them. Lastly, a sub-woofer. This is really important if
you want to accurately reproduce low frequencies. As the speakers you will be able to fit to your GTV
won’t realistically be bigger than 6.5” midrange drive units, any frequency lower than 100Hz or so
will be difficult to reproduce. A subwoofer is the only way to deal with this issue, but they are
expensive and they take up a lot of boot space.
Once you have considered all the elements carefully I suggest you try to listen to components that fit
into your budget, choose very carefully and remember to budget for cables and connectors, as well as
any custom made parts, like a box for the subwoofer for example. y
