well it was an amazing deck and 3 months after i bought it i wrecked my blazer so i had to send it in for repair at my cost next i was test a sub and an amp in my car a month ago and the sub blew and blew the amp and the amp blew my deck cause it shorted the rca inputs and fried my deck only $3200 worth of equipment blowen in under a minute but both times it wasnt the decks fault that it blew.

Oh, that's understandable. Just curious. I haven't had any trouble out of their units in the past, or seen anyone who has for that matter. That's why I was wondering.

at last crutchfield doesn't sell F#1status (yet)
if it wasn't for their lousy advice to customers on the phone, and some of the totally crappy stuff they sell lik the bazooka amps, crutchfield wouldn't be so bad.
The retail pricing isn't so great though.

"if it wasn't for their lousy advice to customers on the phone,"

That's the one that boils me over. The myths they spread around is what makes us have to straighten so many things out.

yeah, the one time a lady told me, my amp would be clipping unless the subs were getting the exact power they were recommended, then she said I could run my 2 channel amp bridged with 2 4 ohm subs which would be 1 ohm. lol
