well its my first car of my own....why you gona diss it?

[jaybiss]

nope

but youll realise your mistakes soon enough, i was the same

i thought my lanzar sub and legacy amp sounded the tits...

[Mattvtr]

no hes making the point that have you really reseached it properly if its your first car as it usually means first install and with 6x9s in it id say yes

[jaybiss]

i also bought 6 x 9s

but luckily didnt fit them....

[dui_yoursax]

so whats your point?
it sounds nice and dont rattle the car to much but once inside it sound great,and i bet it sound better than some 300 pound rip offs as it cost me around 90 pound

thats the point im trying to make

i didnt hear a 'proper' install when i got mine and i thought it sounded the tits

i then heard a jl install someone had in their car at a show and it was awesome

they had no powercaps, no 6 x 9s and no rear speakers

[dui_yoursax]

yes,BUT tbh i have had a alpine and pref my sony,im not loyal to them but like them more as alpine for 146.99 is crap sounding and has not got 3 outs plus 1 in for cd changer

[jaybiss]

have a read through talkaudio mate and youll learn so much its unreal

i learnt lots from there and always like to browse now and again

If you mention Sony being good on talkaudio be prepaired for bwing took the piss out of something cronic. TA is a great forum I have been a member for years. The thing with it is that people on there a lot of the time can not be arsed with newbies as it would be the same nearly every day. Do some searchs on there and you can find some good info. Then when you have a basis for knowledge you will find the people on there some of the best you will come accross in the UK.

As for this £150 headunit thread my first post says

You will find that any aftermarket headunit will make standard car speakers sound better. Its for the simple reason that an aftermarket headunit puts out about three times the power of a factory fit one.

Personally mate I would not touch a sony headunit.

This is what I would spend my money on and put the rest towards the rest of your system. http://www.caraudiodirect.co.uk/prod...did=54bda780c2 834acd4ca5eb02d9e7330b

What I will add to this is. Unless your planning on running a high end system then theres no point in spending over £100 on a headunit as all your going to get is a load of flashig lights and features that you will never need or use.
