Crunk Flammable Jello Times

I was just looking at the specs for the 3K in Crutchfield's archive files...

Why would they put that odd gap in the cutoffs for the LP and HP filters? (80Hz for LP and 100Hz for HP?)

The stated tuner sensivity is 13dBf...for several years I have been accustomed to Kenwood's CR2 tuner section with an FM sensitivity of 9.3dBf - and consequently it has zero issues pulling in weak stations.

How well does the tuner in the Eclipses work? I do still listen to broadcast radio and one of my fave local channels has a crap transmitter. I only ask because I have zero experience with an Eclipse HU of any kind so I do not know how significant that difference in specs is in regards to real-world use.

 
No clue, then again how many general consumers will use it and even then how many will notice that small underlap in the midbass? I/we would, but generally speaking..

I sell 99% Eclipse HUs and have never had a reception problem for AM or FM from any clients. Not to say it does or doesnt exist, just never once had a complaint from it...

I see your point. Your average Best Buy customer wouldn't ever notice it more than likely. But with a somewhat sharp rolloff (18dB/octave), like you said I/we would notice it and consequently, for a more experienced enthusiast's use, that was a poor idea on Fujitsu's part. Easily curable, though, by bypassing that bit of filtering altogether and relying on the processing in the amp instead. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif

Other than the odd exception about the internal processing and the curiosity about the tuner I do like it as an option overall. Once I've scrounged up some more cash I'll most definitely keep you in mind especially considering you're one of the sellers on here I wouldn't have any hesitations about or worries that I won't get what I've paid for. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/thumbsup.gif.3287b36ca96645a13a43aff531f37f02.gif

There are some smallish things that need done to the Bronco which will need to be tended to before I get it insured/registered...it needs valve cover gaskets, the brakes need bleeding, it needs headlight bulbs, and I want to go to the junkyard and get both a rear-door spare tire mount and I need a 5th wheel so I'll have a spare.

So most likely that's where the next bit of my extra cash goes towards but like I said - I will definitely keep that in mind as a real option.

 
well prowler Wrights bit me in the *** again //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/frown.gif.a3531fa0534503350665a1e957861287.gif.

You know I do the good thing and don't under cut B&M shops (being that I work for a shop, it would kinda like me shorting myself buying online/unauthorized)and go to an authorized dealer for premier to order my 880...and guess what.

They order it, and tell me it should be in anyday now. and that was a week ago. So today I figure I will test them out. I call and inquire about my order...again they say its been ordered and they dont know anything about the status. So later on today on my break I call the same shop and pretend to be another customer and ask for an 880...and low and behold this is what I hear...

"oh they are on backorder...we can't even fill the order that we have on them for another customer"

needless to say I will go to the shop tomorrow, and ask them why they didn't inform ME that it was on backorder...I needed this unit 3 days ago, and I returned a unit (display model and was scared that newbz had fawked it up)from Audio/Tint Concepts accross from The audio Edge. In favor of buying a new one.

ignore my ramblings. I worked a 16 hour day today + built/worked on my truck.

I saw more donks than one man should have to see in his lifetime today //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/frown.gif.a3531fa0534503350665a1e957861287.gif

 
Yes, but I dont recall what its called. Maybe an access point? to bridge the distance....
I hate going to best buy with no clue of what I am asking for. Those people act like punks because I can get laid and they cannot. They also respond with some sort of smartass answer.

However, if you come with knowing the name of the device and all the relevant info, then they are as cool as a fan.

It is a flawed design on their part, but I think theyre out to just please the masses on their lower/mid lines...

I appreciate the confidence and of course Ill be here !
