Re: Thinking of buying a Chinese no-name Android HU

Like Brenz mentioned, check out the Kenwood Excelon DDX9902S. Apple CarPlay or Android Auto, on a MUCH higher-quality 7" motorized touchscreen and a good sounding Excelon unit at $750 retail is tough to beat.

Re: Damo95

Great buyer! Paid immediately and sent me confirmation of a safe arrival as soon as possible. Wouldn't hesitate for a second to do business again. In fact I didn't...this makes two transactions that have gone seamlessly. Thanks Damo!

iroller

Have met face to face on several occasions with iroller in order to sell him quite a few pieces from my collection. He's a very nice gentleman and eager to provide a good home to some of our PG treasures! Wouldn't hesitate to do business again. Welcome to the phamily!

Re: Elite .5 problem

This is a pretty comprehensive sequence to narrow down the possibilities when troubleshooting noise issues. I hope your amp is okay.

Re: zero point zx600ti

ZX600ti and Ti600.2 are essentially the exact same amplifier. I think PG was a bit confused how they wanted to approach the naming. They were the early Ti amps which came just after the popular ZX. Later it seemed they just dropped the ZX for the simpler Titanium naming strategy.

Re: I got more clear! Installed the Xenon 200.4!

The X200.4 is a great amp and one of my favorites! Out of my whole stockpile of PG amps, it's the only one I'm using at the moment. Glad to hear you're enjoying yours too!

Re: Headunit needed today.....Kenwood or JVC?

The KDC-X496 doesn't have bluetooth. The KDC-X696 does have bluetooth at a similar price point, but you give up the multi-color and multi-line text display. To keep that display and add bluetooth you'd be looking to upgrade to the KDC-X896, which also adds HD radio capability. The JVC's offer a lot ...

Re: Where have all the nice head units gone?

The Pioneer PRS decks have all been solid performers. Exceptional processing power for a sub $500 head unit. Great 16 band equalization and countless 3-way and 4-way filter options. Both the EQ and the filters offer left/right independent control. Just as important as what specs and features they ca...

That said, there are a several critical elements to retailing that you're omitting from your analysis of the situation. I'm not privy to any of the dealer pricing and haven't...

Didn't get a chance to chat with Morgan or quality seat time in the Elite Cayenne, but that's a good thing for PG! They were pretty b...

RTA? Are we competing now? Tune it to what sounds good to you and be happy with it. Tuning a 32 band EQ without an RTA is a joke. Agreed. Just because you have the sensibility to accurately measure many important variables in quality audio reproduction doesn't mean that you forfeit any degree of pe...

Re: BASS CUBE and ported boxes.

What frequency would you approximate you're boosting at? You should probably be good to go with the fixed frequency subsonic filter and I would imagine for everyday listening it would sound best that way given your box tuning. The tracking subsonic option really becomes beneficial when you're boosti...

Re: phoenix gold voltage meter display

The RSD amplifiers should each have their own RMD port. If you use one display for each amp they will monitor the voltage present at each amp in real time. Optimally the voltage will be the same across the board, but you'll probably have to use a multimeter to confirm and calibrate each display inde...

I might be imagining things, but IIRC at one point Erin might have suggested that configuration to another member.
