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.

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

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 !

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.
