Why is car audio dead around here?
-
for my current situation the factory harmon kardon setup sounds really nice, I like the factory steering wheel controls, and audio controlled through the nav screen. I don't forsee any aftermarket stereo in my future for those reasons, other then an ipod integration.

im still very into car audio, i like installing also and trying to build my own amp racks and etc. i will always be into that kind of think i need to not just hear the music i need to feel it also. does anyone know why there is not anymore sound comps around town? or where there is ant being held?

lol i was waiting for you to post on here mat. If someone were to organize events around here i think you would see more of an interest in it. I love car audio but my money usually goes into performance first which doesn't leave me with a whole lot for my audio set up..

i enjoy having cash for both. having already invested about 600 dollars into an amp/sub/box setup, i have found that i can just sell my shit and get something different.
plus getting wire isnt a real problem with me, just go home and take some from the shop.i have 2 car plans, the DD'er, compete car audio, and the other, the Fast car, with simple upgrades.
i try to balance out my cash, because i love both so much.
that and i do Home Theater too, so i balance it 3 ways..but totally.
and is it TJamz?
where is it exactly that your store is? cause id love to check out what you have for RE
i would totally go to events around here, but from what ive heard there arent many. -
I am a home based store (meaning low overhead for me, better savings for you). With the state of car audio what it is here in Fargo, I really can't afford to take the chance on opening a full retail location....not do I have the time to run it as a full time business.
Shoot me a PM if you are interested in anything in particular.

I remember back in the day going to DL to a sound comp. My buddy had a yellow prelude that was ungodly loud. I had to sit on the roof of it during a run and when the bass hit my arms turned to jello. I cant quite remember what he hit but it was well above 150 (I'm thinking more like 160 or 170). Chris do you remember what it was?

up where i live everyone buys the walmart pioneer crap or orders it off the internet dirt cheap because they dont care if it could be stolen or care about other people makeing money in a local setting. MOST are just cheap asses and want something for nothing. some are even to cheap for wire they use old house electrical wire or something and they wonder why their stereos burn up their cars,

because that is a huge window you are throwing out there
I have no knowledge of SPL competitions but i am calling BS that your buddy was at 160db...... prove it to me

I believe the yellow prelude was in the 150's...maybe 156 to 159 (might have cracked 160 at some point). I remember seeing that car around...4 Crossfire BMF 12's or 15's if memory serves.
