Has anyone ever bought car audio equipment from Cardomain .I usually buy from Crutchfield but they don't have the right size speakers to fit the dash of my S 10.

I thought you told me you were gonna go ahead with another set of 80s and the RB 1090 for the truck Rick, isn't that why you bought the Onan generator?

That is true - M-50's should suffice. By the way, Parts Express has some pretty cool car audio gear, too.

I did the Atkins once, was OK but give the South Beach diet a try. Neighbor uses it and say she likes it. Just do whatever.

Yo Craig, you think maybe even bookshelves? Sounds like ol' Wid is really concerned with usable space inside the cab of that truck.

I hope he's got that thing lowered and chopped with the smoothed out tailgate with the recessed and angled license plate holder....in primer grey of course.

Yea, maybe bookshelves.

Parts Express also has car subwoofer enclosures in which you can place the Hsu driver. THAT would sound awesome !

Yea, get that sound system in order. I see you've got the windshield wiper working very good.

Hey don't feel too bad Rick, my man Stevie has been in and out this morning. Must have had a heck of a jam session up there with Jimi and Albert last night.

Haven’t bought from them, but have heard of them. I’ve bought from these two.

http://www.thezeb.com/

http://www.cbrstereo.com/

It just depends on what brand I’m looking for. I try to stick with authorized dealers to keep the warrantee. Alpine is pain in ass, they are like Denon and Rotel…..hard to find a good deal on their head units from an on-line dealer.

There’s lots of god subs out there. Many cater to SQ instead of SPL. Not too sure about placing one in an S-10 though. You don’t have much room to place an enclosure with adequate air space.

I put in an order to Cardomain today.I got a set of Clarion 4x6s for the dash.They say they will be a perfect fit,I sure hope so.
