Re: Why does everyone hate the Ipad or Ipod?

Just FYI, there are a number of reasonably priced headunits that bypass the iPod's DAC's and use the headunits (my Kenwood X994 does this). I use my iPod almost exclusively when listening to music in my vehicle(s). Why? Because keeping many CD's in my vehicle sucks, lossless files are so close to C...

I was wondering when pioneer was going to make another 880/800 prs replacement. This deck looks s...

I regret selling my pioneerr 880 prs some years back... I have been looking at some new decks aswell, and nothing sparks my eye really. Most look to flashy, or are missing some features..

Anyone seen fi's new super sub? pix

Im still Drooling over it a bit.. I just bought 2 15s not to long ago. :? At any rate it seems to be similar to the lms ultra, only with better soft parts/ more durable, and most importantly less than half the price. I know scott owns that basket design now. These would go great with my x5 powering ...

I can tell you right now, that this is by far the loudest front stage Ive had. The midbass is insane, and the mids are right in your face, and the best part is, I didnt even ...

Indeed some more people from the forum should try more internet brands. I saw some graphs of these posted on the sa forums, and they had a very flat response. These are great for sq, it just so happens the cone, and spiders are stiff as hell, and it has great cooling, so it can handle alot of power ...

This is by far the most overbuilt sub ive owned at this price point. I still cant believe these things are under 200 on sale. What some of you sq guys dont know, is that this sub wasnt even ment for spl. Its a very low distortion driver, that happens to be durable enough to take alot of power, and g...

2 15 Sundown sa's, jbl highs Build log. temp box in!!

First off, I just got this vehicle about 2 weeks ago, and I am ready to do a somewhat simple yet loud system in here. My goal is to simply crush the lows, and sound loud and clear while doing it. I choose to not do any component speaker, as I didnt want to do any cutting in this vehicle yet. You gue...

Running the m44 @ 2 ohms

Has anyone done this yet? Thinking about getting 2 pairs of 2 ohm coaxes to run off this thing, has anyone ran this at 2ohms over the long haul? I had the caps replaced, and everything a few years back. The only reason I ask is because this amp just runs warm by nature. It has never failed me though...
