    Phoenix Gold Octane-R 9.0:5 any good?

    I'm looking to get a good 5 channel amp, I've found this one for a good price. Was also considering others but would like some input if anyone uses or has seen one in action. The sub channel will most likely be pushing a 12" in a sealed enclosure under the rear seat, either a JL, Diamond or...

    Buying a deck, need some opinions...

    I owned an Eclipse several years back mated with MB Quart components and it sounded awesome. Set the bass and treble to 0, flat, no EQ. Looked up this Alpine you mentioned, seems good and that price is good. I'd just stay away from cheap/off brands. The major manufacturers can put quite a bit...
