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

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
Quote:
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.
