Hertz_dont_it Posted August 21, 2010 Report Share Posted August 21, 2010 if i was gonna go with a 8.3" flipout id go with the power acoustik one Current system:Front stage: Alpine type s 6.5No rear:Alpine type s 6.5headunit: alpineAmp: Jbl bp600.1 Sub: Alpine type x 12 dont know much about them. Found a "FLUX" Capacitor on ebay. If I add this to my system, can I really travel into the future? And how far into the future? That probably all depends on how I ground it though, right?Dude dont even waste your money on capacitors get a second car battery preferably a kinetik or stinger or any other car audio battery use the battery that is correct for your systems true rms wattage do some research on the net for this. Go to kinetiks website they explain how to pick a battery from thier site that fits your system. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
audiofanaticz Posted August 21, 2010 Report Share Posted August 21, 2010 if i was gonna go with a 8.3" flipout id go with the power acoustik one LOL Really??? You do know that soundstream, power acoustik, and a bunch of other low quality audio brands are all owned by 1 company? Hence why the screens are almost identical, right down to the same amplifier box. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BulletInjection Posted August 21, 2010 Report Share Posted August 21, 2010 Yes I'm sponsored by them, but I'm pretty unbiased when it comes to equipment.. for example, when i was first sponsored I came right out and told them there is no way in hell I'd use their headunits....it wasn't until I really saw they were changing their game that I decided to try one out. Ok well this isn't just a sound stream head unit, its EXACTLY THE SAME as these. Sorry to break your heart http://www.sonicelectronix.com/item_24400_Power+Acoustik+PTID-8310NRB.html http://www.sonicelectronix.com/item_24495_Farenheit+TID-831NRB.html no blue tooth on this one http://www.sonicelectronix.com/item_24494_Farenheit+TID-830NR.html There are a few more also exactly the same but the SS one cost $200 more lol My build: http://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/ind...8920&st=100 http://www.youtube.com/Bulletinjection Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It usually just ends up in the trash, but if you where too look thru them everything from 1 company to another is the same, just different colors. All your doing is paying for a name that was once good, but ruined by the company that bought it out and merged it to the bad companies Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The head unit does look interesting but having to hook up all those external modules to run things that are integrated into other units is terrible in my opinion.

The head unit does look interesting but having to hook up all those external modules to run things that are integrated into other units is terrible in my opinion. Lol Ill check when I head to the shop monday. They are funny too look thru, and the price guides are just funny.. 6x9 speakers dealer cost 19.95.... I dont even know how we started getting these things, never once bought or ordered anything from them. Im thinking every audio shop gets them. But its all the flea marked audio brands owned by 1 company. But yes it is interesting with all the external modules. Most of it is due to having the thicker screen base and the wider screen that is longer when its in the chassis. All companies have the external brain boxes (which I kinda like) Its a lot easier and cleaner to run a data cable from your screen to the back of the car where your brain box is, then only need like 3 foot rca cables to the amps which reduces voltage loss vs having 17-20 foot rca's. But too each his own. I will give these flea market companies 1 thing. They are offering all the accessories (gps, 5+band eq, nav, bluetooth, handsfree, etc) all in 1 package. Where as most the real companies now days do not offer it all in 1 package most the times and you pay an arm and a leg for the add on. I miss my old headunits, pioneers, eclipse, and alpines. I loved the spectrum analyzers to watch, as well as the on board processor allowing you to do 3 way active right from the deck with no additional processor.
