well, time 2 upgrade my system... tired of the pounding bass and gonna go something a bit more SQ oriented... how SQ? well i think all the components will be eclipse and focal......... i will be selling pretty much all of my stuff over the next few months.. maybe weeks.. if anyone's interested and can offer a decent price let me know... (head unit will be sold last, as the new one is about $3000)

ohyeah, if i can sell the subs and box as 1 that would be awesome... so if anyone doesn't care about spare wheels and weight, they can have the whole box + subs for $1300.. i might part with the sub amp for $500...

aaaaaaaaaahh yeah now i remember.. i'm guessing i look like a moron. i'm not the photogenic type... in fact i bet i look stoned. i always look stoned in photos or videos....

but... back on the topic... if anyone is interested in the subs of even just the box let me know... i don't really wanna just chuck it away... 2 of the subs "might" have been sold but there are definately 2 available ($300 each, (RRP of about $500!) or $1300 for the lot including the box, which should fit all 3rd gen magnas)

found a pic of the new head unit! hmm

5.8" Touch-Panel TFT, DVD, MP3, VCD, Memory stick, Camera input (bye bye rear vision mirror!!) Dolby Digital 5.1, DTS, Pro-Logic 2... and the list keeps going!

now just need the $2600 to pay for it... damn expensive head units!

where are you getting that headunit i saw it on a jap site a while ago and i couldnt find any body here that sold anything remotely like it other than 3800 clarion units.

Did you come across any other units that might be a little cheaper? I have a tv tuner unit i paid 100 bucks for (remote and all) and it will plug into any headunit :)

those double din units rock.

last time i checked they didn't have any info in the Australian Eclipse site, but i searched Yahoo! and found a link to the jap one that had that pic. they retail for $2600 i'm sure, and most Tonkins stores seem to have them on display.. very fun to play with!

time to sell the old TR so i can get that unit i WANT THAT plus having a tv tuner here doing nothing is pointless :P

Trav

the amp is a US Audio 1000D, running of the Fusion 1.5 farad capacitor it puts out approx 1200W RMS and is 1ohm stable. (4x4ohm subs = 1ohm load) i can have the thing running for 2 hours non-stop without it even getting close to hot. (the day we installed the new box, we did it at a mates place in Nurioopta (about 20 mins north of Gawler) then i drove straight to my G/F's place in Noarlunga with it cranked the whole way... my ears hurt after, but i could hold my hand on the amp and it was barely above the outside temperature!!)
