[QUOTE="raverx3m, post: 6772258, member: 563973"] dual and jensen NUFF SAID!!!!!!! lol comes with free built in smoke machine. the car audio is in a deep shock right now as usual when technology changes. the brains behind car audio companies seem to be very inflexible and have to go thru great amounts of pain before catching up to speed. i mean look at nakamichi. they still make a CD only players and they expect a big market for them? PC has been around for more than 2 decades and the digital sound has surpassed the cd quality by far. MP3 is a different case. the fact that CD is a digital recording should give a hint to companies to catch up to speed and start producing USB units capable of playing high quality digital recordings. but its been a loong and painfull waiting they are finally waking up from their hibernation and adjusting to the market. other thing is the fact that jazz and classical and other previously popular HI-FI music is not that popular. you dont need a 2000 dollar cd player to listen to rap music that is produced at your neighbourhood basement studio. then the general tendency of people to buy cheaper stuff everyone wants cheaper and cheaper. people have been conditioned to expect new CHEAPER products to come out each year and its not the companies fault that people are becoming dumber by the year. you dont want to pay 300 for a mid class radio, ok well make it cheaper so you can get it for 249.99 but well cut down on some features... nottice how pioneer got rid of their mid-class radios that had alot of features and limited the high end to only one unit and one setup that they call stage 4? that only carried by certain authorised dealers. there used to be 8600 there used to be 880 that were reasonably priced. now they are all gone and we got a 500 dollar unit that doesnt have shit except the dumb flashing lights and animations and bluetooth and EQ that stops at 8000 HZ instead of 16k or at least 12.5. i hate the car audio world at the monent too since we are getting not what we want.
