I,ve worked in the Car Audio industry for the last 20 years and i,ve seen alot of changes.I can remember fitting u/dash cassettes to lasers which hooked to the factory AM/FM radio's!
Eclipse are bringing out a new D/Din screen with 2 CD Drives (one for CD and the other for Navigation, all in one unit!
I went to the JVC launch last night and they have some amazing new units.
The higher level units have USB inputs on the face so you can plug in your USB memory stick and have up to 4GB of music.
Things are only going to get better in car audio!!

Cheers,
Dave.

Mined, but I'll play along
(All pioneer, with a 2 exceptions)
DEH-P8650MP
TS-C160R Front Splits
TS-E1695 Rear 3 Ways
GM-6100F 4 Channel Amp
and ATM low end frequency duties are by a Sony 12" sub and Coustic 2 Channel amp.
Only cause I got it cheap/free!
Upgrade it soon to either a JL 12" or Pioneer 12", driven by a yet-to-be decided Monoblock.
My boot is a mess too, I will refuse to open it at the AFD!

lol kenwood mp3 deck
jbl 6' gto's in front doors
bluapunt 6x9 in the rear shelf
2 x 10' marathon's in custom boot install,
with a fewe amps , ( brand names are unknown but there old and friggin good )

Kenwood KDC-MP6029
Pioneer TS-C1625 Splits
JL Audio 6x9's
Pioneer 10" Free Air

1x Pioneer GM-X414 4channel
1x Pioneer GM-X702 2channel (bridged)

Sounds Great,
Not very impressed with the head unit. has all you need functions and output wise,
but i prefer the old JVC MP3 units

are there any systems that have i pod interface built into the head unit, say a connector at the back of the unit? that would be really handy

newer mid-to high end alpine units all have the ipod interface just have to pay a smidgin etc for the ipod connector cable.

Holy s**t who went thread mining? I've got one of the first posts on here and now i've changed cars and systems!

Soon to go into the BA
H/U: JVC KD-AVX1 - DVD Unit operating thru factory premium sound TFT display
Fronts: Infinity Kappa Perfect 6.1 Splits
Front Amp: JVC 2 x 150WRMS
Rears: (undecided, prolly infinity)
Rear Amp: Pioneer GM-X742 2 x 80WRMS
Subs: 2 x Infinity Kappa Perfect 12.1 400WRMS
Sub Amp: Alpine MRD-M1001 1 x 1200WRMS @ 2ohm
Wiring: Stinger 0awg

There will probably be a capacitor of some sort, all custom install awaiting funds! All the gear is sitting around me, begging to be put in the car!

ok... i've got -

Pioneer DVH - 5650MP head unit
Pioneer TS-A1671S fronts
Pioneer TS-A6960E rears
Pioneer TS-W305C X 2 subs
Brainvibrations (VDO) IFD1000 amp <-- very nice piece of machinery, runs 1x 1000W RMS @ 1 ohm!!
8 inch TFT screen mounted to top of dash (where the clock/trip comp is in upper models, i got a gli)
and best of all a "17" inch widescreen monitor hanging from the roof. Probably bigger than the Computer screen you're looking at right now!!

Done some upgrading...

Now have a Response 4x130 (the popular 4x100 has been refined, box still says 4x100 but spec sheet has been updated) powering the fronts and rears, and a Response 1x1000 powering the subs.

Needs to be properly retuned (I spent about 10 mins on it after installing), but I've been to busy, and it's not sounding bad - just not as good as it should be).

Hoping to someday build custom boxes in the rear corners of the boot for the subs.
