WTF?
Actually…
A good CAR system … starts with HAVING - a GOOD CAR…
period.
No use putting say 50 speakers into a wee fiat bambina… the dam thing’d rattle to bits in less tme than it took - to INSTALL?

There is no way - you are “sortof”

@rottie11000 ?
Wheelchair?
What wheelchair…?
I do NOT notice silly appendage problems.. as doing so - just makes one a biased discriminator - of anothers “physical disabilities… for which I probably have WAY more than YOU… having been forced OUT of permanent employment - for many many years… last time I held a full paid position? was hell way back in 1989
I too - am a FULL TIME “permanent Invalid… so? what’s THAT got to do? with anything?

P.s.. ONE LITTLE basic 2ch amp -can RUN at least NINE individual - totally “different” channels - in a circular “sound pattern ..(if placed on a flat demonstration wall - YET all NINE - work “direct” NO EXTRA AMP NEDED - direct off a 2ch “std” head unit -designed for std two speakers… at DOUBLE the power ratingSPL - than if you just used the two..PLUS - no sweet spot… plus as many of those nine chas SUBBED as YOU want.
in full analogue surround sound

But YOU SEE… I have a dislocated fractured HIP .. that never mended properly - from a M/cycle accident
(sheep versus M/cycle - sheep 1 M/cycle 0 +wrecked)
I also have Klienfelters syndrome, aspburgers & autism.. PLUS a raft of OTHER nasties.. including Dyslexia & speak & writting skills cogntive problems… BUT - do I let that stop me - from developping halfway decent sound systems… hell no.

@rottie11000 But hey - I forgive U… as MS realy is a problem… Just a the Local SF (Mental Health support network… help me with mine… and yes… maybe I am ABLE to walk unaided at times… (ask anyone in the town wher i live.. and MOST will tell you - I never walk… and am “SELDOM” even seen - outside my house… “but does THAT stop me… hell no

Ah but U see- being WAY TO POOR to be able to “afford” my own personal motorised chair… I hav t put-up with the OLD 2nd hand hospital “auctioned” service 4wheel chair - with a dropframe brake . for when I work at MY “pc”…
January 15th, 2010 at 5:56 pm
Thus…?

@goosefrabbas ? basic info? well HOW basic does one want to go? Like.. a car stereo “systemm? Basically…
U need a CAR… the you need to somewhere IN range of a distant FM stereo radio broadcast station (like no point in HAVING a tuner section - if You driving areas- is going to be somewhere NEAR “COOK” halfway across the Nullibour Plains .. in Australia now is it? like -the RAILWAY LINE has NO CURVES - for 1,000 miles (1,600Km) & COOK is a s person “place” halfway across…
January 15th, 2010 at 6:09 pm
@goosefrabbas …..? And neither WOULD you have a TAPE OR CD ‘player” for the self same reason…As It’s 500 MILES to the nearest STORE - just to “buy” a new CD? (& the dry Australian OUTBACK DUST - turns anything mechanical to shyte … very rapidly… (scratches CD’s & bungs UP tape decks…) so… A portable digeriedoo is ur best answer … or a talking stick… (it’s a twirler on a piece of string… used for long distnce “bush_telephone_work” - smoke works but the fire is worse))

@rp1986
No - Ur ryt - it’s NOT rocket science… Unfortunately… MANY people here on youtube… don’t actually HAVE any bush technicians skills & cannot even “find” the right end of a screwdriver to hold… let alone how to USE ONE- to install a head, or speaker unit. nor what “hook_up” wire means… (many think it’s a landline ph call to their local “hooker”)
