When I first became involved in car audio I couldn't find a web page anywhere to help me install a good stereo system. For me, as with many, I learned by trial and error. So I created this page so that others may avoid some of the mistakes I may have made.



18 January 2002: 
Made a few minor updates. Removed or corrected some dead links, and added a few new ones.

10 May 2001: 
Added pics and a brief discription of my own system located under Information.

26 April 2001: 
Redrival, my old free web host, discontinued it's free service so I had to move my site. So I thought, as long as I'm moving it, I might as well give it a new look. Drop me a email and let me know what you think.

1 February 2000: 
Today I set up a forum for my page. You can post your car audio questions here and I or someone else that visits the forum can answer them. Everyone is welcome to post questions, opinions, replies, etc on the forum. I will also be visiting the forum atleast once a day to answer questions. To visit the Forum Click here

8 December 1999:
