[fatryan 5,000+ posts]

Tonight I went out to eat with my best friend and his family for my best friends brothers b-day. And my boy said that he wanted to pay for me as a Christmas/Going away to college present. Well needless to say, we racked up a pretty high bill.

My boy has an 01 Tiburon with stock cd player. And the deck sux *** and isnt even working right. He wanted to buy one of my decks I was selling a few weeks ago, but he had no money. So I think for christmas, Ima get him a new deck. What you guys got to offer? I think my budget is gonna be about $75 total

lol did you read? haha. Can I just take it to a shop and have em hook it up to something? Will they charge me?

Oh I also have a jvc, doesnt play mp3s. Its at my dad's shop though so Im not sure of the model number right now. I could do that for $50 plus shipping, if its still there //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif.

did i read what? that you have an untested 7863? yes i did. will a shop charge you to test it? most likely, but it shouldnt be to high, and that can make or break a deal

well theyre going for $75 on ebay, so youd save me the 10-15 on shipping. will you have it for the next day or so? cause i think i wanna look around a lil more b4 i make a final decision.

BTW, whats the RMS per ch? and you got any pix of it?
