    Hey everyone. Recently i jumped back into the market for car audio and came across this lovely little SA-8. After reading countless reviews and testimonials i decided to bite and purchased one. Now that it is here and weighing down my table its time to get a box designed and get it into my Lada! (yes.. i said Lada) Cant wait to hear what it sounds like. Looking forward to joining the community. Cheers all!

    Well everyone's title was "Hello", so I decided to do things a little different. Anyway I have a car, it has my second system in it. It is an old maxima and came with a Bose system. I thought it sounded great, until it crapped out and since it had 1-ohm speakers, it meant getting a head unit and new speakers too. That was maybe 2 years ago, so now I'm rolling in my ultra-budget system. It's more of an experiment always in progress. This week I sealed my doors and also got the circuit diagram for and built a PWM LED Dimmer so I can make my ride ultra-sexy for the ladies. lol. Anyway, I lurk here and DIYMA for the knowledge, and at CA for the drama. So hello all! and than…

    Hello All, I was an installer at a local shop back when I was in high school. We sold mostly JL audio, Audiobahn, JVC, Power Acoustic and a few others I forgot. I am glad I found the site it seems they have more of an informative group here compared to some of the other forums related to this subject. I want to get back in to car audio because I have always enjoyed it and also I just purchased two new vehicles. My first project is my truck. I have a 08 GMC Crew Cab Sierra 1500. I'm looking to spend about 3000 but could possible spend more depending on how big each hit will be! I listen to all types of music but mostly rock, some rap and occasionally country. I like powerf…

    Hey I'm Jim. I recently joined other car audio forums and got but raped for "scamming" when I legitimately purchased/traded for an item but turns out I was the one who got scammed in the first place. We can talk about that if you want. Anyways, I'm learning and getting into car audio more and more. I'm pretty occupied with school and running two web design companies I look forward to meeting everyone and if anyone has any questions, feel free to ask
