The good and the bad

"Dude, a simple Google search of "top rated car audio brands 2020" is not rocket science."

Understood. The only question is what s the point of this forum then? Where does this forum begin and end? Who decides what question is relevent, or deserving of a lynching like I encountered?

Hold on Hold on... while nobody is carrying a list we are able to suggest amps or whatever based on what is currently going around. Take Taramps for one. They are Brazilian amps and apparently can be very powerful for little money. Like Armond said to Louie... But you asssssssk the wrong quessions.

People here aren't going to rate a 100 different brands, let's be real. If you want opinions on particular subs, amps, components, sound processors, alternators, batteries, wiring, head units, port design, box design, etc... Your original post was hard to comprehend and an impossible request. The questions here are usually a lot more specific and technical.

Sorry, I'm running three Taramps amps currently in my car. 95 amp alternator and zero clipping. 4,050 watts. I bought all three amps after I got my ass kicked asking questions here. I sold two new brand new amps for a loss because of the advice that I received here. Look at my rating, lol! I got my ass beat looking for approval instead of advice.

I took a beating in 78 when I joined the Marines, and I now look back and think of that time as valuable as hell, but this is nonsense.

Fil in the blanks. HAHAHA
And if you add emphisis to the right places it should become very clear/.

You asked a stupid question. Do your own homework Marine. So, what was your simple question? Good or bad? Here is a 100 amps, subs, speakers, sound processors, components, speakers, etc....

Probably stupid to you because you cant answer question without sounding un educated. But that begs a new question concerning new members. Why would any new member have to endure this b*llshit? Are there any mods monitoring this forum? Where are the customs and courtisies?

Just ask a decent question. Not, what is best out of these 100 brands? Why? Why not? O.k. give me your best, right now. I just now joined this forum, but demand answers. It doesn't work that way.

most of them went to the trash tier or completely went bankrupt or bought out by garbage trash companies with deep pockets that drag their name to the dirt. The engineers went to new brands that emphasize higher quality products so your list is completely irrelevant in 2020.
