>>RE:i hate this forum

>>when I woke up today, I had no intention on buying any car audio gear

>>EL460 amp sells for $350 at crotchfield, and $200-250 at most other internet places... $60 was too good to pass up.

>>bought EL460 and 2 12"s

I totally agree, I just picked up the amp and two of the 12"s! $80 to the door, all I need is a box to put them in.

Any deals on a two twelve truck box?
 
Car subs are designed to roll off about 10 db per octave below 60 hz due to the matching rising response curve of the small interior cars have. Your house is MUCH larger and the response curve rises at a MUCH lower point, so car subs tend to be all boom and no base when used in a house.

When I looked they had sub drivers for both $14.99 and "unique" ones missing all the wires etc with scratches etc. for $9.99. I am guessing people are buying a load of this stuff even if they don't have cars. I was lookin hard, and even had a couple items in my cart before I started thinking about what to do with them, and left (my Mustang already has a sound system, by Walker mufflers).

Another sad case of "hadtobuyitcuzitwasonsaleitis". It's fatal and it don't get better, to quote Graham Parker, heheh.
 
Not really fatal unless your married and start going to live auctions where people frequently don't bid much on pallet lots of weird old junk.

BTW I would be REAL curious to know if some lucky ATF gets a 100th customer freeby from this place.

Yeah, for no good reason whatsoever I bought a sub and amp. Which means I really kind of need to update my 4 factory speakers etc etc.

BTW navigate via the left menu frame and you can still get to the $9.95 12" subs.
 
I bought this

Looks like I got the last one 😀

It came with all of the mounting and installation hardware including the power cable. I don't have the time or money to spend doing a separate amp-box-etc. install. I can hook this thing up directly to my existing system... it'll accept the speaker-level inputs, and then it has 4 (!!) 25-watt amps for 'satellite' speakers which is the same as what my headunit is sending to my back speakers now anyway. So it's all very easy.... the only problem will be routing the power and grounding cables. Oh well, I'll work it out somehow....

thanks for the info 🙂

edit: linky work now?

I always enjoy purchasing broken links.
 
Lucky dude, I was looking at that, hopping to crutchfield etc., decided to buy and OOS.

OTOH now I can ask a few car guys questions and maybe more will show up. Only downside I saw was the power to the mains, 25 watts, with no effective way to step up later, ie easy, but no expansion. Still, you got that one by seconds....
 
I keep getting tracking numbers from these guys.. 4 so far.. I bought 8 subs total wonder if I will get 8 tracking numbers..
They had to looose money on me.. how much would it cost to ship 8 subs.. I only paid 9.99 each.. and no shipping I can see why they upped the price to 14.99 sweet deal..

HAHA....I think about half of the people that are buying these things are w/ ya on this one. I'm thinking of listing them in my college paper FS and maybe I make a little profit.
 
I'VE BOUGHTEN FROM THESE GUYS OFF OF EBAY....

BOUGHT SOME BAZOOKA 5.25 COMPONENT SPEAKERS...THEY WORK GREAT...
THEY WERE BRAND NEW...
 
I just browesed thru their site to look at what other stuff they offer. Well, they sell A Sony DVD player, but ALL of them come without ANY accessories. Wtf?

No cables, no manual, I could live with that, but no remote control? Where the hell did they get those returns? Don't tell me that any retailer accepts an incomplete return and gives full credit....
 
Just received mine.... (came from South Carlolina to Atlanta)

Two 12" woofs
One EL460 AMP
One EL1500

All in very excellent shape!

edit- I just went back and bought a couple more woofs and another el1500.
I think I will try to build a house sub out of this set.

This company will receive a high rating from me!

 
They still have the 12" subs for $9.99, but you need to navigate to them via the LEFT frame menus.

The returns business is goofy, and yes places like Crutchfield are likely to accept returns in all sorts of conditions with missing parts etc. Also while the item MAY have been returned to the store moderately intact, between the store and this place lots of times bits get lost. Also when the returns get checked if some assessory looks flakey I bet it goes in the trash, less hassle.

I wish this place had some more stuff, other than the dozen car audio items the rest are nothing special at all. I could really relate to a set of the door speakers etc. No shipping and grand opening say through the 30th, so I may just keep checking.

Still waiting to hear if somebody hits the magic 100th and gets order free.
 
well I've decided NOT to buy the EL1500 now..
Gonna wait until I get my CAR lol...after all, there's like a 1 year warranty from return buy...bleh
 
I've only said it about 4 times, follow the menu in the left frame, car audio, speakers

Unfortunately, I'm pretty new to car audio. I just wanted to make sure if both amps were needed. I take the 460 is for 4 speakers in the car and the 1500 is for the subs. Anywho, my sentra really needs this guys. Just wanted to make sure before I spend my moola 😛:.

That's what I was thinking but I'm not really sure of the setup details.

It's been a long time since I messed around with a big setup. The last big system I had was in 1979. I paid 1300 for a state of the art cassette Alpine system.

Audio technology has grown so much!

I think mine had vacuum tubes...?
