Things that piss you off in the Car Audio world.


Recommended Posts

Kicker haters. I actually still want an original pair of solobaric 12s. At the time those came out, how many 12s could handle 600 watts daily and run in a 1 cuft sealed enclosure. When I saw those in CA&E I drooled.

No hate at all but... they still make them. And you still can't buy one with 1Ω coils. And they're still only making 2Ω stable amps. In fact, the only thing about Kicker that's really changed is that you won't find it in the lanes. It's been a decade and a half. Enough with the squares already. ;-)

i hate my local craigslist! every time i go on there all i see is Xplods on a crunch Amp for $300! its just pointless at this point to even go on And look. that or jl w7 subs for like $700 and the v2 amps for pretty much new sales price. its like no one in upstate ny has a clue what good audio is. theres one kid who is selling a fi bl but he wants the retail price.

pisses me off!

This motherfucker right here. It rattles like crazy and the sun glasses holder wont stay closed. I got deadener behind it so I guess i'm going to have to come up with something to stop the noise.

i just spent 6 hours today, 4 hours last week doing a install on a 97 ws6. the kid (against My wishes) bought 2 jl w7 tens ($275 for one $300 for the other) 2 jl 500/1v1s. ( what he listened to) was he bought a really nice pioneer flip out touch screen, a nice 0g wiring kit with two 4g distro out, lots of deadner(still need install) he also bought all speakers front And back ten speakers all together. as i said just spent 6 hours finishing the subs amps and a few speakers. we get in and i start showing him what everything does. it's his first system(not bad) explaining what a hz Is what the gain does blah blah. crank the volume and it sounds good... kinda. i pop the trunk and... are you fucking kidding me? the one jl w7 he bought (that came with the amp that had maxed out gain and boost) was Blown. well not Blown but coil rub. it sounds good at full volume but low its all.hear. i just felt so bad! he called the kid saying he wants his money back cuz its on its way out. the kid said you've had it for Two weeks and it worked fine when i had it! then hung up. that pissed me off. so what started As a great day doing what i love turned into me wanting to find and hurt someone!

no i was not with him when he bought anything,.or this wouldn't have happened
