These companies need to come to CES with a plan, cater to the dealers, show a professional booth, obviously the company is represented by it, professional cars... for the real world people...

right now it is comparing the best of the chineese made products no matter what the manufacturer is arc, PG, RF...

what a disgrace...

Damn, after our discussion on tube amps, this is looking sweet as hell...

The Arc booth keeps blowing me away. They really went all-out with their setup. I have never liked Arc in the past, but I will definitely check them out now. (See, jbondox is right; this is the effect of good advertisement). Monkees vehicle? The friggin batmobile? Not to mention I loved the rest of the classic old rods. It's so rare to see a good modern sound system brought to these old cars in a stylish way. TAKE THAT TUNER INSPIRED!!! *shakes fist*

I'll also admit I really liked the Rockford cars, and their new equipment (as I said before) looks a lot nicer than before. I'm sure it all sounds the same. Too bad it's Rockford... I would have loved to see some more classy setups.

Jbondox, did you have anything to do with any of the Rockford show cars?

Your marketing to professional industry people... as in you need dealers and distributers, even reps.... it looks like a first grader put that shiet together...

to be honest I don't see the purpose anyways, everyone else around the place is selling more things that are needed for a better quality of life, computers, big screens, phones, home theaters... let's see it is $500 phone.... and most people in car audio go running to the internet to buy the cheapest BS because the manufacturers finally realized that they are small change, and off shored all the crap, so WTF cares anyways?



Gotta go guys, got to get home...
