this is great, this has me seriously thinking about piecing together an old school system for my dads truck

Mines simple, not too old skool (90's):

 

Pioneer P1R (120 dB 5-20,000Hz)

 

Modified Linear Power DPSQ50 (50W x 4 RMS 0.008% 115 dB 5Hz-350kHZ )

 

Modified Linear Power 3.2HV (875 Watts 0.008% 100 dB 5Hz-250kHz )

 

Boston Pro 6.4 (comps)

 

Audiomobile Mass 2012 (12")

 

I'd still run this system today if I had it....

that would be sweet. What differences are there between old school subs and new school? Like a lot of old school amps are very underrated/durable vs. new amps.

I want to run this in my 2006 Mustang GT soon:

5002 @ 8 ohms on my 13w6v2

1502IQ on my Mach5 Audio MLI-65 mids

1502IQ on my Alpine Tweeters

My dream system would be my Eclipse ECD-415, My VLX-400 for a sub, a VLX-200 for mids, and a VLX-50 for tweeters. All ran by a US-X3 crossover. I still need a VLX-200 and a 50 and a worthy car.

I do have other options though.

The new subwoofers when made by a company interested in quality are quite nice compared to the older ones but there are very few who are mainstream.

The amplifiers of past were made with parts generally not from China, today almost all amplifiers have Chinese or Korean parts, if they did use non US parts in the older models they were Japanese or Canadian which were of a higher quality than most Chinese today.

The companies today have access to some seriously high quality technology, but the price of the technology is what keeps them going to China....

I just finished my old school build, well old school amps and subs anyway. I would love to get some US Amps equipment though. http://www.caraudio.com/forum/showthread.php?t=383311

Well, considering that with the progression of technology, and the superiority of today's stuff, I really don't have an "old school" dream system. That old junk doesnt hold a candle to today's stuff. Anyone who thinks differently is a nostalgic fool, plain and simple. (if you disagree, show me SOLID proof, not your wishy-washy "well, i think..." bullshit.

I give you the Alpine 7909. Still considered by many people to be the ultimate sq deck. You need proof? Ask any nationally placed SQ competitor about the 7909, chances are, he/she is using one in their comp car.
