    Another "should I buy this car?" Thread

    Hire an escort and have her.... "treat you nicely" for 8 hours. That might be worth it. But then there won't be any cost savings...

    Another "should I buy this car?" Thread

    I think you can rent a uhaul trailer and f150 for like $40-50 a day with unlimited mileage. You mentioned it was 200 miles away, so round trip of 400 miles at around 10mpg, an extra $100 in gas. Saves you $100... but personally I think my time is worth more than the cost savings. But if you're...

    Miami, Broward, or WPB installer?

    I am purchasing a sub, enclosure, and an amp. Need someone to install and tune everything onto a 2009 Infiniti FX35. I'm looking for a well qualified shop. I don't mind traveling to get it done. Any recommendations are appreciated.

    Why I hate buying car audio - Am I stupid?

    I'm doing the same thing you're doing. I thought it was an easy job. Stock Infiniti fx35 with Bose sound. Just wanting to add a sub to replace the factory Bose sub. Hopefully it is easy.

    Old Pioneer Head Unit

    So is it safe to say this head unit can be given away as it isn't worth much?

    Old Pioneer Head Unit

    I have a pioneer DEH-P960mp. It must be about 10 years old. Is there a demand for this head unit? I know when it came out it was about $700. What do you think its worth? Ebay has one for about $275. Is this reasonable or way too high? I'm not sure if I should try selling it or just giving it...

    Need inverter advice

    I just finished taking Physics with Calc II and Electrical Circuits... you would have thought that I could at least remember the most basic of information. Ohh well.

    Need inverter advice

    I've tried a lot of inverters, and my opinion is that some devices are picky on them. A PS3 for example needs a good amount of clean power. I've used Chinese knock off brand inverters that were rated over the requirements of the PS3 and it wouldn't turn on. Plugged in the coleman and it worked...

    Need inverter advice

    Ohms law (Volts X Amps = Watts) I think the ps2 slim is less than 100 watts. My dell laptop is 150 watts. Get yourself something in the 300 range and you should be fine.

    Can I has SQ?

    What is the recommended enclosure size for the sw8200? The eclipse website mentions Vas 8.27 cu ft... I hope that doesn't mean the box is going to be the size of a casket.

    Can I has SQ?

    One last question before I pull the trigger on the Dayton... I really like the look of eclipse subs. I'm also under the impression that they are very good in the SQ department. How would the SW6210 compare with the 12" Dayton? How about the SW8200? If both of them are similar then I wouldn't...

    Can I has SQ?

    Also, where can I find BL curves of subs? I went to my local shop and they offered me a sub, amp, prefab sealed box, installed for $350. I think the sub and amp were both Pioneer. Is this just boom with no SQ?
