What sort of sound system have you got in your car then?

My Ami has a 600w 4ch JBL amp which runs two 16cm JBL speakers and a 300w JBL Sub. It runs from my iPod via a 3.5mm Jack to phono leads, which is the way forward, as there's no head unit to get dripped on or nicked.

My red 2cv has an iPod and some headphones.

I'll try and get some pics next time I see the ami.

Red car, 800w activesub 450w 6x9 but running at 40 (still haven't bought an amp yet) and two round 70s tinie ones that are poo.
yellow 4x4, cassette player and some old school 6x9

Eight-track with soundtrack from Dr. Zhivago.




Just kidding.

I've just the airstream, rattles, squeaks, and the thrum of the 602! Makes for a perfect avante-garde backing to the soundtrack in my head!

On the move a 2cv is the last place I want to listen to music! (or Radio Four ) But Hey! A Sound System on the stationery A series is a different matter... Build somat up!

Russ how does the iPod connect to the equipment? My cd player is nackered so would save me a few bob if I just used my iPod or phone

Oh yea I've got a 1000w fusion amp wired to a 1000w fusion 12" sub with a set of jbl 6x9s a set of 6" jbl speakers under the front seats and a pair of door speakers, no cd player atm though :'(

I remember when 'in car entertainment' was exactly that. It stayed in the car.

Today we all have to hear the thumping going by. Low frequency sounds travel a long way and can be really annoying if you are trying to sleep and some youth (yes, I'm nearly 60) is demonstrating his 'coolness' nearby.

Has anyone been prosecuted yet for noise nuisance? Is there any research into the effects of subsonic vibrations on the human body?

Search eBay for '3.5mm jack to rca' leads, if your amp is more that two channels you'll need to get hold of some splitter leads too. The 3.5mm jack simply plugs into your iPod/phone/Walkman/mp3 player/personal radio and the RCA end plugs into your amp. You'll need to set the amp up again, but once you've got it right you never need to touch it again.

Knightly, search eBay for item 150482187263

Ah I see I'll have a looksie cheers again russ!
