Woot for a new radio.

[flakko 1]

the current radio is a cassette deck, and the cassette deck doesnt even work. im stuck with listening to the same crap over and over and over again. the reception also sucks balls, and i think that's why my right speakers sound like they are distorting.

I heard the exact same stock system speakers i have in a buddies car and it sounded GOOD. im gonna try to reproduce what i heard if i can't ill go all out active aftermarket. these stock speakers have mucho potential. you might ask why i got the 9887 if i aint going active. I dont like the look of the 9886 and i like to keep my options open.

once my crutchfield order comes in on the 5th with the ipod cable and din removal tools i can install it on the 8th

next steps: replace right speakers if blown, run aftermarket amp, deaden, and try out the Imprint thingamajig.

maaan i cant wait.

p.s. anyone in socal with an imprint module i can use?

[johnecon2001 82]

I never ended up getting the D3, the sig was preemptive lol.

Lord man, please use that thing active. Please.

[todd.brust 29]

cool deck...i heard the imprint is pretty cool stuff...never got to experience it for myself...the local shop here has an the imprint module and have used it on a few installs...

but i say go active too....i haven't seen anyone do it with the 9887...

oh so you are getting the 9887?

Lord man, please use that thing active. Please.

LOL i knew you were going to respond to my thread with something like that. its been like a year?

dont worry, i have the drivers all lined up just i case.

but i say go active too....i haven't seen anyone do it with the 9887...

was that sarcasm? or wrer you serious?

[todd.brust 29]

no i'm serious...i honestly have not seen anyone do a full active system with the 9887...the local shop sells them like hot cakes but to my knowledge, they have never done an active install...and i don't recall seeing any 9887 installs on here but i don't read through everything here though

[KickinAudio 5]

[johnecon2001 82]

thats very odd. its like it it was made for the DIY-er. well if i dont like the stock system with this HU, you WILL see a full active system

@kickin

yea man, i miss my music in my car. i think my attitude will become more positive if i can listen to my pod or cd's in-car. its such a meaningul parting my life.

@john

DUDE. thats Gangsta pimp balla status right there.

@mazdaboom

yea would have gotten the 9885, but i enjoy tuning my music

[johnecon2001 82]
