Headunit Dilemma... - Saxperience

Lippy · 28th January 2009, 23:08

Okay my rear phono outputs on my headunit have mysteriously stopped working the cables look fine and ive checked inside the phono ends...

Anyone know of somewhere that repairs headunits cheaply? One of these places you send it away to? would have to be professional place though!

or do I get a DVD/TV headunit?

or should i get an external line driver so that I can input the front phono's and run rear output from the line driver?

Suggestions welcome!

message the manufacturer and see if you can send it back to them?

its out of warranty otherwise id take it back to where i used to work which is the audio shop i brought it from but cheers for the idea!

id still give em a message tbh, just cause its out of warranty doesnt mean they wont fix it just means they might charge you

, well or could say no but thats bad customer services

( if its anything like pc hardware sending back...)

Oh I have sent back plenty of pc hardware! My PC I just built is getting featured in Custom PC this month coming (I think) their photographer is coming up to see me within the next week or so for picture taking

Solved the output problem now! Ordered a Vibe Delta box so I now have more outputs than i need! and they are a higher voltage so should sound better!

Ooo i love customPC some amazing builds in there, what spec you got?!

this thread changed subject lol

nothing is so special about it... I just modified my PC and put it up on their forum and then one of the editors said he wanted to feature it and would give me £400 worth of stuff for featuring it so of course I said yes!

It would take me ages to write out all the parts etc so il post a link to the blog!

although i just tried it and it doesnt work, there are a couple of piccys on my progress thread on page 4 or 5 though!

lol yeah problem solved! well it will be when i get my delta box! for now I still have to finish wiring the components! getting my wheels tomorrow morning too! yey

yeah loads of flow with 2 rads! the bottomo rad is a PA120.2 so very free flowing! i7 looks the shit tbh but im running pretty quick on my rig at the moment with all the over clocking!

yeh i dont really need to upgrade but while i got money and im off to uni for next 3 years finally... i am 20 going late

lol got my e6600@3.3 but i got a pa120.3 so its a bit of a waste with that shit chip lol but then no good deals around, pc hardware is expensive atm cos of the exchange rate and rising costs so really havent been tempted to buy :| i7 is just to expensive to encourage the impulse buy lol

havent looked at prices recently tbh but im happy with my ddr2 @1149 and my 45nm quad @ 3.47

My GPU is a bit poo though, its a zotac 8800GTX+ not really keeping up very well, maybe il buy another one, who knows!
