Well, I dunno what I'd be running off of, probably a cheap amp in the future, but if I were to ever put any real money into the audio system in my car, i'd get a new head unit as well ;-) If I can just plug it in and have decent sound quality, I'll be happy. Anything beats whats in there now...

Aside from visual improvements and CDR/MP3/IPOD compatibility, how much have head units improved over the past few years? Will a head unit that was "new" 3 or so years ago be able to sound as good as a new head unit? Have there been THAT many changes in the sound quality and stuff over the...

Cool, i'll look into that :-D Thx

lol thanks for the suggestion for the Infinitys....Price looks better, i think that will be better than the B/A's.... Although I've got probably like 2k available, I only want to spend about 500 dollars on the car audio stuff....the rest is for going fast :-P (first priority) And how did you...

I've been here/on different audio forums for a while, occasionally browsing the forums and asking misc. questions, but now i've finally got a car i'll be keeping long enough for it to be worth putting money into the audio system :-D (89 Firebird Formula) I dont want to ask "Whats the best...

K, Thanks..... Just wish my friend wasnt a stingy bastard and only willing to pay 150 for a "system" as he calls it... Esp, since its "gotta" be from like Best Buy or Tweeter....he REFUSES to buy anything online and doesnt trust me to do anything on his car for him, eventhough i've set up...

Crutchfield only shows the rear speaker size, but what is the front speaker size for a 90 Accord EX sedan? Thanks....hopefully my friend will be getting a new headunit and speakers today (He refuses to buy online, so we're just going to stores...)

I plan on just building a box like this..... Seems to work with all the third gen's quite well i guess......fairly simple too.....

Hi I'm buying an 86 Camaro for a CHEAP price, (450 bucks, runs and drives good!), but theres no sterio in it at all......it had one before, but part of the reason its so cheap is that i told the guy he can keep the head unit (old JVC) and knock off a hundred bucks (origionally was asking 550)...
