Oh and yes I'm into audio systems, but have everything but subs. I have yet to put my tweeters in (I have 3 pairs and don't need that many), and sold the subs and amp I did have to a friend of mine. I never even hooked them up. I'll get some new subs later on.

Yeah I used ot be into audio untill it got stolen.

Don;t get me wrong, I still like it but I don't have enough money to "support the addiction" anymore

I'm not heavy into car audio, but do want a nice settup. I'm going to get a black widow alarm that pages me if anyone messes with my car.

I had a Clifford in my car and even when it did page me, it wasn't loud enough for you to hear when your sleeping.

.. don't leave your face plate in your car to tempt people. Alarms just keep honset people honest. If someone wants your deck bad enough, they alarm isn't going to stop them. Prevent the break in and remove your faceplate. I learned the hard way too.

I always remove my face plate when i'm at work. At home theres no point cause if they set the alarm off I will hear it. My room is right above the drive way. At work however I take it out. We've had a couple of break-ins at my job and thankfully mine wasn't one of them or I'd be out $400 just for the damn cd deck.

[Classicrocjunkie]

Even at home its not a good idea. A guy on JBO lost his entire CF trunk and CF prostock spoiler and he had a 2-way alarm. THe theifs just ripped it right off his car and buy the time he got out there, they were running down the road with it.

There is nothing but hills arond me. If they run I'm going to catch them. Besides its going to take them a little longer to get my deck out, and it won't take me long to get outside. I also know the people who stays in trouble for stealing shit...they just don't know that I know. More than likely if someone steals my stuff I'm going to know who it is. That makes it worse for them.

My deck didnt have a faceplate, It was the sony one that was motorized and just flipped out.

It was a nice deck with the ghost face, but it was kinda gay considering the faceplate didnt come off

[Classicrocjunkie]

sony.... lol.

[01Cavy]

^What he said. I'm not a big sony fan. I love kenwood or pioneer decks, and for speakers i'm all audiobahn, kicker, or jl audio.

I got the Sony deak free from insurance, and I have 2 audiobahn 12's and 2 Rockford amps. Nice system

[01Cavy]

Yeah that does sound like a nice setup. I'm going to get two Audiobahn Immortal Series 12, and 2 Audiobahn 1200-1500watt amps...whichever I decide on, and one Audiobahn 400-800 watt amp to push the speakers in the car and then wire my tweeters to the cd deck.

[Classicrocjunkie]

.... i look at this and calculate to myself... 2 subs aprox 15-20 lbs ea.... 30-40 lbs, sub box 10-15lbs... amp..5-10lbs..

every 100lbs + 0.1th 1/4 mile time goes up.. so.. 0.1 added to my time for all that extra weight... LMAO... no thanks.

[01Cavy]

Cmon man...I'm going to make it so its easy removal for when it comes to speed. I'm in to show cars that can out run all and and have more bass than all. I'm not just into one thing...i'm into them all. I know of all the extra weight. Its all going to be custom so when I race (since I don't street race) I can take them out.

[Classicrocjunkie]

ah... ok hoss.
