Ok everyone, lets see what audio improvements you've done to your Astros/Safaries. I'm planning and prepping for an audio upgrade and want to know what you think which are the best bang for the buck, what sounds the best etc etc etc.
Really nicechevymaher said:Nothing exciting.
Sound Design, 200W, CD, DVD, back up camera, USB, SD card, Bluetooth, Remote, 6 inch touch screen, RCA outputs for a TV, Subwoofer output, 150W boat speakers.
Not competition but plenty enough to go deaf if you so choose.
I was waiting for this. 5000X more stereo than I got and you say it just a little something to bump driving around. LOL You da man on the stereo Jax :thumbup:JaxSPL said:Oh well, even though I posted it in another topic. Here is my small system inthe new Astro.
Damn!!!JaxSPL said:Oh well, even though I posted it in another topic. Here is my small system inthe new Astro.
The amplifier has been replaced with a DUAL branded amp. Going to change it out again, for a Power Acoustik.
2 7" monitors in the headliner.
7" monitor for the passenger. The headunit was a Dual branded unit, but I changed it out for a JVC KD-AVX1 which is much better.
One of my doors. It doesn't have the MTX speaker in it now. I swapped them out for some SoundStream speakers. The button you see is for the door popper.
I thought I had more pics than this. Guess I need to get more this weekend.
LOL I know we butted heads in a alternator thread way back. And you showed some math and splained to me why a good stereo uses more juice than a welder would.JaxSPL said:chevymaher, to me, it is a very small system. I have never had a system below 1500watts on the subs. My last system was 4,000watts rms.

My kid gave me a sound system. He planned to put this in his beater but his girl's brother totaled the car and I got the system to put in my '93.

Since I put in the V8 the only time I use this is when I'm waiting for the wife shopping to watch a video...
Now there's someone I can relate to. Except my lights all work.redfury said:Still running my stock stereo with burned out lights in the buttons...had planned to upgrade, but it's like, on the bottom of my priority list...and I listen to mostly talk radio.
I like it but it is middle of the road. I never had a fancy radio so I'm not a very good judge, my youngest son put the system together w/ help from a guy that knows his stuff and while it isn't top of the line it does work pretty well.redfury said:How do you rate that head unit Woodbutcher?
