Car Audio Reviews

[QBA]

Hi

Can some one give me some serious links where I can read about car audio reviews, example: amps, speakers, subs, head units etc.

I have found a bunch but they are just online stores that put up the same positive info from the manufacture's website trying to get me to buy their products.

Thanks

Alex

thanks 1st MP3 in NH

I just want to learn a little about Car Audio

By the way 1st MP3 in NH, the CDA-9815 can only search files with the HDA-5460 (hard drvie), I called Alpine and they told me that only by HDA-5460 interface you can seach folders and advance search features, wich in my opinion sucks, because I have not desire to have two headunits on my car, I wantted to buy the HDA-5460 and put it on the trunk , but I guess is not posible so I guess I will wait for a new HD unit to come out to the market on the future.

I could always return my CDA-9815 and just buy the HDA-5460, since I'm using my new amp, I don't need build in amp. will I be missing alot of features if I return the 9815 and just buy the HDA-5460 ?

thanks again

Alex

The HDA-5460 is not a head unit it has no power, no tuner.
Its only a Hard disk drive which is a direct controller and a set of preouts.
The can get to and play the files on the CDA9815 via the ai-net connection but you have to get the indash peice to have the hard drive since that is the hard drive. Its just the in dash unit, nothing else. But since we have a double din opening, we are all set.
