Any of my Eclipse decks. the best one I had was the 6-disc indash changer complete head unit din sized! $899 retail! why did I sell it!

Hmm,
The only thing I wish I still had, that I don't now.
Was my Alpine 7525.
Even tho, I most likely wouldn't be using it anymore it was a good deck that had the cool shuttle type volume control. I thought that was the coolest and easiest to use deck ever.
But it got stolen a few years back

Dammit guys now Im going to have to start going back to the auctions to pickup equipment!

i loved alpines old head units...like the 7909 obviously but all the ones that had a rotary volume knob with bass and treble slides above it...of course this may just be because i remember them when i was younger.....
first system was a kraco slide out cassette reciever with a kraco power booster eq running 4 panasonic 6x9's and had a pair of pioneer 3.5's in the dash run off the head unit and heres the real shitter......had a pair of pyle pro 10's runniing off of a pyramid pb300...those of you in the know will remember the pb300 as every poor kids wet dream...300 watts of whining,squealing affordable fury...........

The first subs I bought were thump pro's. Paid like 30 bucks for 2 12s at one of those expo shows. Glad I was only 14 and didn't have a real job, no telling how much money i would have wasted.
Wow now that i think about it, I built a box out of 1/2 plywood for them, and had them hooked to a PA amp. No wonder they didn't last too long.

I had a friend who bought some of those Thumps, I remember after like 2 months, the cone was all sun faded and the surrounds were falling off.
He didn't like how we were all laughing at him.

my first subs almost became 2 sony 12"s with a sony amp and wiring, that stuff hit pretty hard (hard enough for me), didn't sound so great bu tit amazed me for sony.
sadly, my dad thinks its a bad idea (ironically, its my money that i earned. only trhe bank account is in his name. oh jesus i can't wait until i turn 17..ohhhh)
