ok well its that time again... christmas is here. i was wondering does anyone know of a cd deck that has a motorized face to come down to put a cd in and also can be taken off. i want to be able to hook up at least 1 sub and amp to it and i would like it to play mp3s also. aaaaaaaaand i would like to be able to controll the bass (sub(S)) and what not on it... and i dont want to kill my money.... does anyone know of such a cd player with atleast some of these thats not that expensive? any help or sugguestions for a system would be apreciated.

I dont know a specific one, but look into Sony's. They have a seperate PreOut for the Sub and can be controlled through the HU, plus the cost/performace ratio on them is pretty good.

 

thank you very much i will look into the sonys'. i thought we had a crap load of people who were into systems on here.. but ehh i guess they are all still mad at me. thanks dave

 

Lol, its christmas Kurt, most of us aren't looking at the site and it just came back up anyway. I am not sure what HU's are motorized.

 

ahh its ok im getting a sony one as seen here: http://www.circuitcity.com/ssm/Sony-...oductDetail.do
and i will also be getting these speakers to go with it. http://www.circuitcity.com/ccd/produ...l.do?oid=88029
but a question how many speakers will i actually get with this? is that the price for just 1 speaker?
thanks guys merry christmas

 

Thats for a pair Kurt.

 

#1. If you are going to spend any money at all, dont spend it on any sony equip. JVC or Rockford or pretty much anything else is worth its salt. I bought all sony x-plod equip cause it was cheap and b/c it said it could handle soo much power. I went to best buy for their 4 year warranty (which i dont know about circut city having one this good) and blew 4 straight pairs of 10's on my amps. 4 PAIRS!! i upgraded to rockford in january. i am going to make it a year without worrying about my subs. they can handle waaaay more than suggested, and i dont know that sony can even handle whats on the label.

#2. Plan out your system completely with your budget in mind. If you need some help, pm me or get in contact with me. i help all of my buds with finding equipment and bulding boxes and just about everything.

Its an expensive mistake when you get something wrong or something thats not what it's cut out to be. I just hope i get to you in time. ill even go and find some stuff for u right now and paste the links. hold on.....

 

JVC Reciever
or
Pioneer reciever
and for the speakers,
pioneer 3-ways
or
kenwood 3-ways
hope it helps

 

Alpine decks are motorized...IMO, nothing beats them besides Nak or possibly Eclipse...

 

thanks guys im still not sure about what i will be doing i only have like 250 bucks and maybe ill just get a reciever... im not sure. but i will most likely just get a reciever and some speakers i dont really care about the subs for now.

Best bang for buck upgrade (assuming you have a 92 ford radio) is a receiver/head unit. Quickly followed by a pair of speakers. Then you can enjoy the new fidelity while you save up for a subwoofer system.
