Old School to me is Lanzar OPTI DRIVES, Pioneer subs with the Gold Pioneer symbols on the dustcovers, Kicker Xs100's, Pioneer GMH-100's...Multiple sub setups with 1000 watts to drive them. Back when you didn't have to have 4000 watts to move 6 12's...Cheater amps..Those days are gone. WHEN MADE IN USA REALLY WAS MADE IN USA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Majestic was a brand here in Fresno I saw a lot of back when.

I have some of the Auto Sound and Security magazines back to '89. An '89 issue with the Alpine SC T-Bird on the cover was the reason I got a bird.

Who remembers the name Roger Bridges in CA? Dark redish S10 Blazer walled with 6 Strokers and Linear 800SW's hittin' 150's which was Loud back then.

I worked with a guy at my old office that drove to Modesto in 1978 (if i remember right) Robert Zeff came out in a lab coat and installed the amp himself. On his was back to Fresno it died, this happend a few times. He scrapped it and put a Linear Power in. I think it was running some 6x9's and some 8's. He kept calling it a "Power Booster" not an amp.
