If you've been collecting them over the last ten years, why do you
still call them "new" amps? Do you buy them and never install them,
or what?

I don't know about everyone else but I don't dream of having crappy

I'm not entirely sure what you mean by "i have so much cause i got out afew

Yeah, that's a good one there, Bob. Teach us oh audio guru... share
your audio knowledge with us... show us the path to car audio nirvana!
[/heavy sarcasm]

If you're going to collect car audio equipment, you may as well put it
to use. Buy a 50 amp DC power supply and hook up a working system in
your shop or garage... there's no point in bragging about your
collection if it's just collecting dust... hook that crap up!

I think he has, Mark. I've already uncovered his affinity for teenaged
asian girls. I wonder if he specifically has a thing for Chinese girls?
Because mmdir2 hates the Chinese. Called them a "dirt sneaky race" if I
remember correctly. I suspect that mmdir2 is half Chinese, half Wald. His
extreme dislike of the Chinese has to do with his resentment of his own
mother for hooking up with a retard like Mr. Wald.

Well, it makes sense in my head...but it somehow loses potency between my
brain and my fingers. I'm tired.

Oh...and I just thought of a joke. Let's assume for one second that Bob is
popular with Chinese women. What do they call him?

You can get the Clarion EQS744 on eBay for $60-65 shipped, from at
least a half-dozen different vendors, so I wouldn't have paid $85 for
the first one, much less for a second one.

As for Precision Audio, I've never used them, but if you look at the
posts in this newsgroup over the years, most peoples' experience and
impressions with them have been pretty poor. I know that some of
their subwoofers are "lookalikes" of some of the JL Audio models, and
the packaging even uses the same font as JL. They also use model
names like "JW-10" and "JW-12", which might confuse an unwary buyer.

Swiss Audio and Audiobahn are/were divisions of the same company.
That's not the same as saying that Swiss is made by Audiobahn -
they're both just owned by the same people, along with Alphasonik and
Digital Audio. Those four companies don't manufacture anything at all
- they give their specs to overseas companies for them to produce and
put the Audiobahn/Alphasonik/Digital/Swiss logo on them.

As a result, the products are somewhat generic, although the quality
is pretty fair.

Wow Bob, you are falling deeper and deeper into the sewers of the car
audio world... Soundstorm? Are you serious? That's just one of those
cheezy companies that came out to trick the ignorant into thinking they
were buying Soundstream... kind of like Rockwood/Rockford.

$85 will go a long way toward some decent gear... or better yet, into
some educational reading material to help you make better buying
decisions, and to increase your knowledge of audio in general.

But, then I have to remember, nobody can be this stupid... can they? I
guess the other guys are probablly right... bob wald = troll...

Whether they've any good or not, why on earth do you want TWO of them?
Is the second one going into another car, or are you going to keep it
as a spare? The same unit that goes for $55 today will either be $40
next year, or it will have been replaced by another model with more
features that you can get for the same $55 that this one is costing
you.

(Or do you have some "inside information" that tells you that
equalizers are about to get really expensive?)

Honestly, it looks like a pretty nice piece for $55. Clarion is a
reputable company, and I know a lot of people that would be willing to
spend $55 just to get the aux-input feature. The crossover frequency
isn't continously-variable, but at least the choices they give you are
60Hz and 90Hz, instead of the typical 90/120/150 Hz. I like to keep
my subs crossed over pretty low, so 60 Hz is pretty close to what I
would use anyway.

I don't think that you'll be able to "gap" the crossovers, though. If
you use 60 Hz as the low-pass crossover point for your subs, then the
high-pass point for your main speakers will be 60Hz as well, which
might be a little low for them.

I still don't think that a 7-band EQ is adequate for correcting *all*
of the frequency response issues in a typical car, but like MZ said,
it will be great for making minor adjustments "on-the-fly" to adjust
the sound for particular sources or songs. I still think the 7V line
driver is a marketing gimmick, though.

For $55, you're essentially getting a two-way/four-channel crossover
with a fader, PLUS a variable subwoofer output, an auxiliary input if
you want to add something like an MP3 player, and a 7-band equalizer.
You would get more features and flexibility if you bought separate
components or a higher-end combination unit, but for the price, I'm
sure you'll be happy with it.

These manufacturing companies may make 80,000 amps, but they aren't in
the business of advancing the state of the art - they're in the
business of taking another's company's specifications, and producing
the amps for them as cheaply as possible to maximize profits without
having too many of them come back broken.

The "Chiang Wu" manufacturing company in China isn't interested in
improving the design, because that's not what they're paid to do. Any
improvements they make involve increasing the efficiency of their
manufacturing process, not making changes to the design of the
amplifier itself. You can give them a ****ty amplifier design, and
they'll happily crank out 100,000 of them in the most efficient and
cost-effective manner possible - they don't give a crap whether it's a
good design or not.

also those clarion eqs must be selling out that model...no more for
you. next yr..too bad.....

i'm sure 6-7 people here are ordering this...thats why wanted to get my
order in before i start telling about it....

Bob, what colour is the sky in your world?? Here on planet Earth,
consumer electronics prices never go anywhere but *down* over the long
haul, even without adjusting for inflation. If you do adjust for
inflation, the prices are practically plummeting.

Look through old Usenet posts and see what the typical price-per-watt
for amplifiers was ten years ago.

Head units are the same way. Today, you have to try real hard to find
a CD player that sells for more than $375. (I'm not talking about DVD
players or nav systems, just CD players).

In the late 80's, you would have had a hard time finding a CD player
for LESS than $375, and with inflation, $375 in 1986 dollars is more
than $520 today.

So, whether or not you adjust for infaltion, even the most-expensive
units today are cheaper than the cheapest units twenty years ago.

And for amplifiers, if you've been around car audio as long as you
claim, surely you remember when $1/Watt was actually a *good* price.
Now, amplifiers have gotten so inexpensive that they're practically
commodity items.

And like I said in my other post, if Clarion is discontinuing the
EQS744, it's only because they're going to replace it with a better
unit at the same price point, so it still doesn't make any sense to
"stock up" now.

That's true - I've already said that it sounds like a good value for
the money. I just don't know why you're ordering *two* of them,
unless you're going to use both of them right away.

In 2007, you'll still be able to find either a new-in-box EQS744, or
an even newer version with more features, for the same $55-60, so it
doesn't make any sense to buy an extra one now if you're just going to
keep it as a spare.

80,000, 800,000, whatever. It doesn't change the fact that since the
manufacturing plant doesn't make changes to the amplifier design
itself, they're basically just making the same amp 800,000 times.
They're experts in manufacturing processes, not amplifier design. I
also never said that the mass-produced amps were "total garbage" - I
just pointed out that if they are, the offshore manufacturers can't be
counted on to improve the design, since all they do is build the damn
things.

And as someone else has already pointed out, Soundstorm is just one of
a hundred companies that pay overseas manufacturers to make products
with their logo on them. The best they can hope for is that someone
will mistake them for Soundstream.
