    Buying A Cheap Double DIN Touch Screen

    Well at most $250. I realize that a lot of the head units on Ebay that are $150 are probably cheap Chinese off-brand crap, but for example Sonic has a Boss unit for a little over $200 that's got like 4.5 out of 5 stars cumulative. And Amazon's units like Pyle and Planet Audio all have perfectly...

    Buying A Cheap Double DIN Touch Screen

    So I want to put a double DIN touch screen DVD/Media/Stereo player in my 2004 F-150. I've been looking on Ebay, Sonixelectronix, and Amazon. I've found a bunch for $150-220 with 4/5 star reviews overall, and some even better. Why shouldn't I buy one of these? I'm not an audiophile, I plan on...

    Quality of Cheap Ebay Double DIN Tough-Screen Stereos?

    What do you guys think? I'm talking about the ones that go for $150-200. I'm considering buying one for my 2004 F150. I see that some have small differences such as channels. I'm wanting at least a four channel for front and rear, obviously, and a sub. Now I'm very new to car audio, and all the...

    Help A Newbie Out

    Oh well if RMS is what we're really measuring, then forget 1500 lol, that was an estimate of total power. I've no idea what kind of RMS I'd shoot for, probably around 1000-1200 max. So why do they make subs that can handle more max than others, but have the same RMS? After shopping around I've...

    Help A Newbie Out

    Hey guys, we'll see how many threads I wind up making before I even buy any components lol. Well first off a list of questions: 1. Anyone have an Extended Cab pickup that listens to primarily classic rock, followed by modern rock, followed by anything else? If so, what's your audio system...

    Put Together Some Cheap Second Hand Systems For Me Please

    Hey guys. So we're getting a new (old) truck of some sort, probably an 01-05 F-150 Extended Cab. Regardless of Make, it'll be an Extended Cab, and not Regular or Crew. I'd like to put a cheap but better than stock audio system in it, this stems from our former vehicle, an 01 Expedition, where...

    First Time Buying A Receiver, Advice?

    Interesting. I do like the look of it, but I'm a little confused about the outputs. It has two sets of them, one for front and one for rear/subwoofer. So will I have to choose to amp either my sub or my rear speakers?

    First Time Buying A Receiver, Advice?

    Sounds good. Now I plan on upgrading the stock speakers and adding an amp and woofer at some point. Those won't be anything fancy either, but my biggest thing with the build is upgradeability. So as far as I can tell I'd want a receiver with 4 channels, one for each speaker, and either one 4...

    First Time Buying A Receiver, Advice?

    Hey guys, I'm getting a new vehicle soon, a truck of some sort, probably an 00-04 F-150, Silverado 1500, or something similar. The stereos leave something to be desired, and I have enough technology that I'd like to upgrade it. As far as I know I have a Double DIN right? So I could get a double...
