GM-X1024 and LINK

thanks

Oh bummer.

That is a really nice amp. It says it has a 2-year warranty. Have you had it for 2 years already? If it's still under warranty, you might need to send it in for a full check-up.

You are not going to believe me...

almost 11 years old

11 years old? Wow. A classic.



I have a 16 year old Urban Audio Worx amp that still works, but you don't see me installing it in my Yaris!

The new technology is just so much better than it was years ago.
You can do a really nice system for a reasonable amount of money, if you just avoid those "boutique" products.
( as in: the stuff SqComp is using )

Boutique?

Hater

Seriously though, boutique would be using Thesis amps and Accuton drivers. I'm just on the lower rung of top-end. LRx amps are actually fairly affordable...if you work your angles correctly.

There's an M car in our shop right now that's using Mosconi and Sinfoni amps. I'd classify the latter as boutique way before my stuff.

[Alien Mantis]

YES, the stuff is "boutique"..... and NO I am not a "hater".

I love all that hi-end stuff.

I just can't afford it, nor would I spend that much money on a car audio system unless I won the lottery.

I was driving around in my little Yaris today, jamming my $500 stereo system, thinking how great it sounded and how happy I was.

That's what counts!
