I've been in the market for a new head unit with a screen. I can't get a double din so i would have to get a flip out. Multiple have people have told me to not get a flip out because of my subs. They said subs will greatly damage them. Any truth to this?

Sounds plausible if your subs are loud enough, they could rattle the flip out part of the deck enough that the connections fail.

i'm running sa15s on a saz2500d so they get decently loud but if i'm gonna spend over 300 i don't think i want to risk not being able to use it long. I wish i could fit a double din in my suv

Lol, I think they are blowing smoke up your ass. Most flip out screens fail due to the motors giving out from normal use. I have never seen one fail from bass, but that's just in my experience.

it would make sense that if your hittin some deebeez

the constant shaking of the monitor would weaken the supports quick

but if those supports are made of steel instead of plastic (like a cheap h/u)

you should be fine for years

yeah the monitors shake with loud bass and wears them out even faster. but ive seen plenty of double din head units around? im not saying theyre good quality ones but theyre out there.

 i ran a flip out for 2 years with 2 bl 15s on a saz 3000d i never had an issue

I really wish i could get a double din because i like the looks of those wayyy better

Why can't you.. if you have a 1998 Jimmy then why not get the double din sized replacement from an extreme and call it a day?

 

I don't have the jimmy anymore. I got a 99 durango
