Re: Day 2 Car Audio. What was your system?
You guys are old
 By the mid-late '80's the top name in car audio was ALPINE, went with the shaft model first, then upgraded to the DIN mount CD version, a few amps, Boston Acoustic speakers, etc... hmmm... (where did my money go?  )

Re: Day 2 Car Audio. What was your system?
When I was using my Z for a high school daily driver. I had an Alpine stereo in it. I remember it well cause the cassettes always got stuck and wouldn't eject. I kept a tiny seafood fork in the console to eject them.

You guys are old [/ QUOTE ] How is this for old: Do any of you guys remember "Mind Blower" speakers? I bought mine at K-Mart along with a Pioneer SuperTuner AM/FM 8 track. These speakers were 6x9 and each one had a big amp hanging from it. There was a base boost controller that you mounted by the driver somewhere. I had a set and put them in old speaker enclosures and set them in the back of a 64 Corvette coupe. I'm pretty sure the guy I sold the car to 10 years ago still has them in there!

Re: Day 2 Car Audio. What was your system?
1st system was a Pioneer big round dial underdash Supertuner w/cassette(cost me $20 at a X-mas drive at school for raffle tickets),Kraco 5-band equalizer,Jensen 6X9 triaxials.That system went thru Quite a few vehicles.Then was sold to my brothers girl friend at the time for $125. 2nd system was a Pioneer KE-5100 in dash Supertuner with a 7-band booster equalizer, cant remember the brand,Jensen triaxial II 6X9's,2 supertweeters,2 tweeter horns.That system was in a 72 Grandville 2dr Brougham.At the time 81-82 it would rock.
 I can also remember the Reverb on a 67 GP conv my dad had.Wow  was that something to hear! Kendall

Re: Day 2 Car Audio. What was your system?
I can't take credit but a local Corvette guy, Chris Jensen, still has the 4-track Muntz (that's right 4, not 8) that the tape cartridge that looked like an 8 track sat exposed on top of the unit. He bought it at the PX in the USArmy in 1962 and I saw it as a kid in his '64 Corvette. I never have seen another. Yup, he still has it.
