I've got a Sparkomatic cassette player with the locking fast forward, tone setting, am/fm and 2 4 1/2 paper all range speakers with the built in whizzer cones. It's pretty sweet and not exactly stock. ;)

Biggest thing Chris, is you can't go cheap on sound.....If you want to play, you gotta pay....
Remember my bug, truck, tahoe.........They all sounded good because the best price is usually not the best buy.
Hey, Tina called me a little while ago, what a trip huh!!!

Yeah i know what you mean...........guess i am picking up the boat on sat. morning and bringing it back to have my guy take a look at things. We will see what happens. Believe me Nord, you know i am not cheap...........just checking out my connections first. For some reason everytime i spend alot of money on something, somebody seems to come up and tell me "i could of hooked you up bro"
On another note...........this weekend was bad ass. We were even out on the river on sunday as well. Did not get home till 11pm oh well, ready to do it again on labor day....

4 sets focals separates
1 ARC audio amp
1 hifonics amp
2 - 10's.
I am looking for a new amp to run the components... something like a 4 x 100 or bigger. What are your favorites? I was thinking ARC audio or PPI.
also I still need some JL subs too!
Doesn't it ever stop :notam: :rollside:
