Re: There is more to audio than Alpine, Pioneer, Sony, Kenwood, etc

Pioneer TS-W3002D2 (Highly recommended)
Kenwood Excelon KFC-XW12R (my second choice)

Re: Single Sub Box

Re: delco problems

Well, at the very least, atleast you found out your speakers aren't blown. LOL I find it odd that three Delcos would have the same problem back to back. But, you're right, $15 is a good deal.

Re: New stereo intro! Pretty cool!

This is an awesome technology, especially when in a higher resolution display. Although, I will admit, that one looks awesome. The Kenwood Excelon decks offer this program for the OEL display models....

Re: Quick component speaker wiring question.

If we're talking the same speakers (CV HED46 plates), you'll want to wire both positives in together. How you do this is up to you, but we typically use a splitter to pull two wires off of one to...
