Because your car should sound good too
THere are other options if you know what to choose from. Special mention are Genesis amplifiers, Arc Audio, Soundstream reference.The harder part is the limited choices for upstream playback components, the common Alpine could be bettered by Denon... 
blown woofer on B&W 603 S2
Blowing speakers twice in the same channel, it couldn't be the Dual. The amplifier is the culprit, it is leaking dc into the speaker tap on that channel. The amplifier has enough power to drive the speakers, but if something is amiss in the circui... 
Cable Burn-In Question Interconnect & Speaker
Burn in makes life easier for a "cable addict", inevitably , i went the route of getting my own burner, rather than pestering an audio buddy . I used to burn my cable by hooking it up in my car , as i spend more time there. But that was over 12 ye... 
Subwoofer cable???
True, Solid core types are very taut , accurate and dynamics. Among the choices for subwoofer cabling, there are very limited, but consider Audioquest or DNM.see these cables employed from the home audio to car audio arena, and the definition is e... 
What are the specs of a full range speaker?
No single transducer can handle a full 20 to 20khz frequenc. In the olden days, acceptable single driver to wideband drivers, typically covers from above 50's to near 16 khz signal, something that specs out like 80-16khz, or 70-15khz, enough to ha... 
Is Audioquest Emerald still a good cable?
the X is the warmer one versus the X3. Still very good with the taut bass delivery , though at times can sound dry compared with the likes of harmonic technology. For somewhere under $150 , go for the truthlinks. ANother similar cable should be th...

Straws in ports?
A better way than do resistive damping like putting straws is to go for proven modern aeroport, which has flares in both sides of the lenght of the port . Port noise or chaffing is reduced significantly. A lot of companies have been using these. N... 
Why don't kids nowadays know about Jazz and classi
Too soon to tell, they will, catch up in time.In my younger days as a custom car audio salesperson, i have had the opportunity to hear the type of music, i'd almost not even bothered to listen too. But apparently the kind of job i was exposed to m... 
Review: Nordost Red Dawn Interconnect
The Nordost on the eichmann bullet takes it to a totally different level. The top end has less grit or soes not sound pinched than the stock connector that the co uses. The midrange has a lushness ,fullness, that i did not experience with the stoc...

Alpha Core MI2 vs Audience AU24 speaker cable
Mike,I am not too familiar with the symbilink since i have not installed one before. However, it must be some type of connection with a higher voltage out (line driver) plus the advantage of having the merits of a balanced connection. This is very... 
Alpha Core MI2 vs Audience AU24 speaker cable
I have had experienced actual HOme audio cables installed in a car audio environment and it seems interesting to share what progressed through the sessions. You will be surprised:1. NOT all cables that are very good in a home audio A/B/A session w... 
Kimber Hero vs Nordost Blue Heaven vs VDH mk iii
The cables you enumerated have their distinct sonic signature, it may either complement the type of sound to your liking. Some may call it system compatibility, but I believe it is a matter of priority or taste.As an avid cable-freak, i have had n... 
MusicalFidelity X10D Tube Buffer ,any good ?
Appropriate for starter CD players or most DVD entry level players as it removes the common harshness in the highs and the midrange lushness is unmistakeable. But on swapping it out with higher end CD players with more capable internal DAC , the s...
