im very big on my stereo set ups im really good at them i've done some in the past with custom boxes and stuff like that , so ill just talk you through my basic set up and future plans.

Pioneer 200watt CD/MP3 Player

250watt 4ohm 6.5" kenwood speakers for the front

170watt 4ohm 5" kenwood speakers for the back

future plans

12" mtx audio sub / custom box , with 1000watt jaycar audio competition amplifier , running the front speakers at max power 250watts and the rears of the headunit

hopefully should get some good quality sound out of this car also sound deadening the doors so no noise gets out and police pull me over.

ajax... you think so? i've been told that alpine is the way to go, it's much more powerful and is much more clearer in comparison to pioneer...

then again i can't judge since i haven't tried alpine as of yet, but i will soon enough.

I considered Alpine at one stage but I was talked out of it. I've always installed Pioneer in my cars. I have a 2004 VW Golf Comfortline and I'm quite happy with the system in it atm. If i was going to change anything I would probably go with Pioneer again.

I had alpine and rockford fosgate amps. I sold my car stereo system because you get sick of them after a while.

The problem is, whatever car stereo you get you probably won't be happy with. You will always seem to want better. Everyone i know with good car stereos are never happy. Always complaining cos they want better.

My advice is, get something good don't spend too much. For example, you don't need subs to have good base, subs cost and take up space. It depends what you buy for your money, not how many things you buy.

Whatever system u get for ur car, your stereo at at home probably will sound much better.

If you want to buy the best, you will need to spend over ten thousand and that's before installation. If you want the best buy it, you will have fun with it that for sure.

If you want something good don't spend too much and don't overdo it on having to have everything. All you hear is, ' I want 2 subs not 1, I want 12 inch not 10 inch. I want Alpine amps not pioneer. I want this, I want that. So many people are so certain what they want before they know.

They don't go all out in Greece on stereos and the music in the cars sounds fine, its not what u have it's what music u play. they are not like the greeks here in AUS, the greeks here have to be show offs with their car stereos and want the best.

Anyway summernats is on this weekend and if u want to see the best then it is here.
NO.1 WOG
let me tell you something about car stereos with my set up i've done a small set up with 1 12" sub and its running on 400vrms to the sub and i've turned the gain to low so its not loud also i've came up with my own design with sub cut off switches on the console so if i don't want to listen to my sub anymore it turns off like my home theatre system.

and yes your correct greek prince you do get sick and tired of it after awhile anyways
