Things that piss you off in the Car Audio world.


Recommended Posts

was helping a friend, tryna take the radio the guy he bought it from put in out of his 90 300e and it will not budge. get all the trim out of the way so i can feel around it, and there's not a damn thing holding it in and it will not move more than a couple mm's and im sure that's just it moving the entire dash

The installer might have bolted a support strap to the rear of it.

That being said a lot of people's definition of "music" is a clipped 30 hz sine wave with some 80 IQ knuckle head grunting about committing crimes and his genitals.

Nope. I could feel all along the top bottom sides back, nothing there. Only thing I can think of is a secondary cage from where the stock radio went

When your buddy says it's a waste of money to get subs and says his stock system is enough for him... Then when it comes down to "who's driving?"... That same guy says let's take your ride and he blasts your system like he wishes it was in his car... (Probably jealous)

Sell your subs to a friend and the box doesn't fit his car he makes a new one to fit the trunk not the subs,When you try to explain to a him they need to build a box to the sub specs, but he says it sounds good when it doesn't

Amps went on backorder estimate a month wait,decided to wait, then get an email they are going to be another month later, cancel the order and buy from another site because you can't wait to hear your new sundown x12s pound (going to be my best system yet)

Notice everytime you get a new system its better than the last and wish you had the knowledge you do now when you were doing your first install

Thieves... Two systems stolen... I'd probably be in jail if I found out who

Girls hearing my system then they ask if I can install subs in their car " sure" and they only want to spend $200, "OK so you just want a cd player?"

Shitty run of wires

When you help a cousin pick their first system setup cause they trust you with a spending limit of $600 and its just as loud as your current system (little fu¢k£π)

Guy who works at the local car audio sho here tells me I shoulda bought a jl 1200hd instead of my scv3k. He says the 1200hd is VERY underrated and will put out more power than my scv at low voltage because sundown amps are in efficient. Not sure if the guy is jus ignorant or trying to make a sale. Either way pisses me off

people that don't color coordinate their wire. or atleast distinguish them someway with tape or heatshink or something...

same shit when I get into a 3 phase motor and it's just 3 of the same color wires as hot feeds, no rotation marked...
