Best Car Audio Magazine

I don't think any of them are really worth anything nowadays...

CA&E lost a ton of credibility with me when they published that "review" of the SI Magnum.

The last few issues of Mobile Electronics I flipped through basically were nothing but scantily-glad women and lots of video screens, both of which can be easily found online without having to subscribe to a magazine.

Thats what it seemed to me when flipping thru any car mag... Not many pics but lots of advertising and women in bathing suits

 
Well, at least they aren't as unabashedly in bed with snake oil salesmen as mags like Stereophile & The Absolute Sound are. Although both of those do have good reviews of music from decent labels from time to time.

what did they say about the SI Magnum

 
I don't know how they got their hands on one, but it wasn't with Nick's blessing or even knowledge of beforehand...they couldn't even get SI's contact information right, apparently they credited it to some shop named "Stereo Integrity" in NY somewhere...

They only gave the driver 300W in an enclosure that was the wrong size for it, and wondered why the output wasn't up to par...

The entire thing was done with about as much class as some 17 year-old that comes on here and says that "yo mayne my sub bangs on sum lil wayne boii"...I expect better from such a magazine.

An official review, done with the full knowledge of SI would have been great, a la the review of the RE MX that was published. But we all know who pays for glossy ad space, and SI ain't it.
