Pick me out a new head unit

[StereoInstaller1]

My crossover has a knob to control sub levels, lots of amps these days do too. I have a simple round knob just left of my shifter. Allows rapid adjustment of boom.

That Kenwood EQ is a worthless piece of shit. I reserve that judgement only for the most deserving of products.

I have installed literally dozens of those turds...absolute junk. Will fuck up the sound of even the best of systems.

If you want to know why, let us start a new thread on the sonic dangers of tantalum capacitors and hysteresis distortions. I will explain this shit....your head will hurt.

As a long term geek with no life outside of stereo crap for ummm...all of my life, just trust me on this.

If you want a dash mount EQ with sub level that will IMPROVE the sound of your system, check out the Audio Control "Three.1"

the deck is long gone, I replaced it with a Clarion dxz745mp... But as you can see in the link, I have a seperate sub volume knob that does the trick.

Hahaha...I have a few Nak pieces...the newest one is a TD500 casette deck from 1986...back when Nak ruled.

Personally, if I wanted to do aftermarket, I would go for a Clarion 9255. Possibly the ugliest deck ever made, but terrific sound.

Every since I got burned out of a $1300 head unit back in 1990, I do not trust Nak.

I want a "Business Class" cd player from an E36 or E46. I will feed that into an AudioControl 6XS crossover and 3 amplifiers. That crossover will give me a subwoofer level control and absolutely amazing sound quality. Far better than virtually ANY aftermarket deck...and believe me, I am far pickier than anyone you have ever met.

Plus, it is fun being able to kick anyones ass in sound with a "stock" deck.

Hey Luke,

I have been burning my retinas till late reading this forum and caraudio forum. At first I wanted to replace my Sony cdx-m630 with the same crap, now I'm past that and started to look for a nostalgic (just put a bid) on a Blaupunkt SQR 83 New York Radio (Don't bid against me Guys) no harness (if anyone has one??) but someone said you can make one for the older Blaupunkts. I was looking at a nice Nak cassette but at $165??? I'm sure they where worth tons more new. So maybe for now the NY will do, but I kind a like the Business Class but I want cassette, and a MP3 hook up.
