I am interested in buying a low cost oscilloscope for setting head unit output level and amp gain. I saw the Velleman hand held oscilloscopes on ebay for $140-$150. i was wondering if they are any good. I know I don't need anything real fancy for this type of measurement, but I want something...

I plan to buy an oscilloscope, pink noise test cd, and RTA so I can tune my system myself, and maybe pick up some extra money. First I will describe my system. CDA-7840 head unit ERA-G320 Sound Field Processor MRV-F357 5-ch amplifier. I have connected the head unit and G320 through the...

How can car wax cure a disc that is scatched enough to skip, I realize the wax will fill the scratch, but I would think that it will either block the laser beam or cause it to be deflected so it will still skip.

Yeah, I've talked to some other people and they said the disc doctor isn' very good either, I have pesonally tried toothpaste, rubbing compound, metal polish, sandpaper technique staring at 1500 grit and going to 3000grit, heating the disc with a small butane torch, and none of those worked (at...

Has anyone tried both the Disc Doctor and and the Memorex OptiFix Pro? Which works better? Which brands cleaning wheel lasts longer?

A few months ago i posted and asked who made good RTA's. I got a reply that Rane, Behringer, and Audio Control were all good. After researching them i decided i would like to purchase the Audio control SA-33055 because it can be run off battery power and has a printer connection Which the...

I read somewhere that if your sub box was sealed well, you could push in on the sub and it would come back out slowly. My question is how long should it take for a 10" sub to come back out after being pushed in. 1second, 5seconds 10seconds?

I had a Boston 10" competitor sub in my f-150 I built the box out of 1" MDF. Isounded real good. I sound deadned the doors in my ruck and decided to put the extra inside my sub box. It made it sound even better.

I want to sound deaden the entire interior of my coupe, (doors, floor, roof,trunk, etc.) i was wondering if anyone on here hes done one yet and how much deadner mat it took.

OH YEAH I FORGOT. if you need help with the hot woman come to me.

Go to Alpine's web site they were showing a complete system for $699 on there about 3 weeks ago. Or better yet Buy the stuff on ebay You can get new stuff for alot less than car stereo shops are selling it for. You could probably do about a $1,000.00 dollar system for around $600 if you shop on...

Other than possibly being overkill, and costing a little more is there any reason not to run 12 ga. wire to my speakers?

Sounds like this isn't going to be as inexpensive as i hought, I knew I wouldn't need a real expensive scope, I also knew the RTA would be costly to get something decent. going the laptop route won't be cheap either, A documented calibrated mike that is any good will probably be $350 or more...

Can you rent an RTA and a scope for a weekend, and how much would it cost.

I would like to buy an oscilloscope, RTA, and test cd, so I can learn to tune car audio systems. I don't imagine I would need a real expensive oscilloscope? I know there are dozens of different probes for a scope I'm not sure what I would need there, RtA's I know nothing about them. I would...
