VR exec wagon
plus the stock head unit probably look 'cleaner' than an aftermarket one in the VX console

get enough audio gear in the boot and it will also lower your car...best of both worlds.

VR s2 Acclaim/VK IS GONE :(
untill you go ova a bump and max out ya shockies and fark 'em
don't yet a jaycar sub because for a 12" its like 299 and you can get a nice boxed cadience sub for that price (JB hifi)

and if you want a nice clean looking headunit go to the wreckers and get a calais headunit and stacker because it would have rca preouts and look stock

yep and the calais hu has 3 preouts? probably not... just mod the stock h/u. cheaper.
and so this jaycar 12 inch is $152. so how about 2 jaycars! also dont assume the cadence is better than the jaycar.

U rekon I should try the calais h/u or should I not bother and just put a decent pioneer h/u in. What about Sony h/u's how do they go?? I've seen them going for $300 and they look decent. Or should I stay away from them.....

ok pretty much i dont mind what you do but
sony are ****.
the calais h/u is a waste of time and money.
and the modded stock h/u is the best option you have because it will be so cheap. unless you want mp3 support.

Has anyone heard of an amplifier with brand name; 'Audio Focus'. Their made in USA. It is 70WATTS by 2channel. Attached a photo of it. Basically I was wondering if it would be good enough to power a 12" sub, if it were bridged???? It reads mono on the back so obviously it can be bridged but how much power will it have??? Tried doing the maths but couldn't work it out.

Here's some more details which are written ontop of the amp:
- Audio Focus
- Car Power MOSFET Amplifier
- 70watts X 2
- model: AP 720

- has a fused attached on the side: 15A 32V
