Posted August 12, 200520 yr I have a numbnuts salesman, that seems to believe that Blaupunkt is, well, the tits. What do you guys think of Blaupunkt, what brand are comparable and why. Just curious
August 12, 200520 yr Author What makes them decent then Elias? Pricing? Materials? Performance?I noticed one of their lines of components list the frequency response with a flatness of -10dB. Am I off-base thinking that is rather sad?
August 12, 200520 yr The only 2 things i have ever bought from blaunkpunt was a head unit and a pair of 6x9s back in high school. They were decent, Never had a problem with them. The head unit didnt have a lot of features if I remember, but it was good, had enough features and never failed on me, and the 6x9s were pretty loud and sounded ok. So I cant really say anything bad about them.

Am I off-base thinking that is rather sad?<{POST_SNAPBACK}>I have a BPV 777 ( i think)Its a low end model from blaupunkt, its not the greatest quality, but its certinaly not stuff you would find at a local auto parts shop selling H/U's.Its not a company i would want to purchase anything from. The specs arent all that great, nor is the styling. But there is definetly worse out there.
August 12, 200520 yr i concur. back in the day blaupunkt was actually pretty highend, but they haven't appeared to keep up in the performance/options/technology/appearance race. they have drifted towards budget oriented systems and for that, they are decent.wheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee
August 12, 200520 yr I hate em, they're styling (especially HU's) SUCK. I have a pair of the 3-way 5x7's...from my first venture into car audio (read as "mistake" ). They're low-line tho...just chitty build quality.NG
August 12, 200520 yr Call Crutchfield and ask their opinion of them. The only complaint I have about the HUs I've owned in the past is they have a cheap feel to them. I've had great success witheverything else they have. In fact, I just got rid of my last Velocity amp a couple weeks ago. It was one of the original ones with the HUSH circuitry.
