Nice one SoundManiac. I particularly liked point number 6
Since I am new here, I am glad I read this thread first before venturing into reading the other threads.

Oh hell.. everything he said is true.

I came here looking for a tip on what speakers to put in my car. I was thinking I've got 5k in my pocket.. I'll take the best answer and get it installed tomorrow.

Now with all this SPSQSL talk and things like crossovers and multiple enclosed and ported subs etc I'm going mad (and potentially very broke). Worst is, I still haven't bought/installed a thing.

But now I know what to do. Every time I need to drive somewhere I'm gonna drag my Denon amp and my two four foot tall Jamo speakers down to the car and throw them on the backseat! And I'll drag them back home everytime I return. (its only 8 floors up, and there's an elevator)

So who can tell me where I can get a 12V to 240V transformer?

Edit: (I just realized.. Might as well take the TV too. After all the passenger seat is also empty)

very nicely written...just like soundmaniac's initial post here!

I found that article here- Zaph|Audio which should also be a good reading in itself (just a small page with one-liners)!

How times change!

Am sure when karthik posted this in Sep 2005, he had now idea Sam would end up an English teacher on the forum.

Wonderful thread. Missed it all these days.

The thread starter has done a fab job ,here`s my .000002 Cents.

After going through most of the threads in the ICE section and posts of the Gurus here is what i observed :-

1.If you have a decent budget and dont know much about ICE then stick with JBL for its VFM ,its the best for beginners.
2.If you like SPL then brands like Kicker ,JL Audio ,Pioneer etc are good.
3.If you like SQ (like me) then the forum Fav. is Hertz/ID followed by Illusion.
4.Everyone has a different opinion when it comes to SQ.
5.The bigger the budget the more confused you will get.
6.Sometimes it gets too technical for noobs like me.
7.Its ok to ask for help/advice but in the end please use your own Ears and the thing thats in between to make the right choice ,and dont get influenced by anyone.
8.Some are actually interested in learning while some just pretend or say that they are here to learn. (no offence)
9.There`s no cure if the ICE bug bites you.

Personal point

10.Have to decide which bank to rob to get that dream SQ setup done.

These are my personal thoughts ,if you dont agree with them then please ignore this post.
