  2. My buddy got a nakamichi 10" in a ported box he made which was tuned to something totally wrong for the sub way back then, but we proceeded to play some music and got to Edgar Winters frankenstein and had the motor fall off in the box. lol I really do miss the old analog equipment that sounded so clean, clear and amazing, i really don't think we'll ever have another time like we had back then. EDIT: Hell mine had to be around 83, 84 or 85 and the pioneer 6x9's were still king of speakers back then to have for a system. lol

  3. this month we are giving away some awesome Sundown Audio subs and a nice Sundown amp to go with them. I want a lot of contestants this month! So my plan is to do a REVERSE system of the month this time! Basically I HAVE the "System of the Month" in my hands and it will be shipped to the person who wins. Here is what you need. A Car. A Picture of you by the car you would put the system in if you win the prize. A membership to this forum, even BRAND NEW FRIENDLY MEMBERS are welcome! No post count required. Hopefully you will see this is a great place to hang out and you will stay! So join now, it is easy! use your facebook account to sign up in seconds If we reach 50 contestants, i will toss in $200 Store Credit out of my own pocket to any of the partners on this board for you to pick out a deck, crossover, or whatever else you need to enhance the already great prize (which you will soon see). Can someone with an already great system enter? YES! It can be the car you already have or maybe you standing next to your pop's car because you want him to have a system! So i am trying to reach my admin Nick aka Chode to get SOTM set up within the next day or so. I will post links here once he has it up and running. At the end of the month i will draw the winner! Does this sound like fun or what? STAY TUNED!!!

  4. It sure makes life harder in the world of sales in my shop. Everyone and their brother have between a 1200 and 6000 watt amp and they do like 1/3 of that power in real life. Try selling a JL xd 600/1 for $429 when someone thinks they already have a 1200 watt X brand amp they bought for $129. Even though their amp is 4x the size and does 1/2 the power as the amp I'm trying to sell... I've lost multiple sales because some manufacture puts out far overhyped junk.

  7. Where I grew up, nobody had any "subwoofers" - keep in mind, this was 1983 and I lived in SW Missouri. I was down at a shop in Joplin, MO called The Stereo Clinic with my dad. The owner, Tom, told me, "You wanna' hear something?" I was like sure! He took me out to his Honda CVCC and played ZZ Topp "I Need You Tonight" on his system. When the bass kicked in at 35 seconds into the song, I was like MIND = BLOWN. I was 14. Over the next several years, Tom got every single dollar of money I had to spend in an effort to recreate that experience in my '74 Buick Apollo. OH . . . and his system? Jensen cassette deck, 100W x 2 Sunkyong Power Amp, (1) Pair Acoustic Research 6x9s in a custom box with a 12" woofer cone as a passive radiator. Try as I may, I was never able to recreate this experience in my own car and at one time, I had the VERY SAME equipment. Even today, in my Mustang with HX2 18s, it's not the same. This is one of my fondest memories of car stereo, even today.

  8. dude, i built some systems using those that SLAMMED! i'm not a hater! I heard those explodes in my boy Sprint n was stunned as well. people get hung up on brand names. I mean some brands do SUCK ASS i agree.! Sony used to be top of the line. Google Sony Mobile ES. That used to be the choice over any other brand next to the best Alpines for high end SQ. It's a shame they went xplod on us but what i am getting at is, it wasn't total junk. I would classify it as medium grade. If built properly, amps matched to the subs and gains set right....proper enclosure etc, they were pretty fuckin' nice! like any other medium brand would be if done right. That's the key. Install is 85% of the equation....maybe more.

  9. I first heard some pioneer that looked like metal plates. Then had some that said earthquake. But the ones that got me into bass was some fosgate power DVC back in 2000. First sub I ever bought and best I heard at that time
