Got a blaupunkt Paris head unit, Blaupunkt 10 disc stacker, Blaupunkt 4 by 6 speakers in th back (correct size for factory apertures... no holes
thanks!) and I am still running the original Blaupunkt 3 and a halfs in the dash. The sound in the car is incredible, even from these small speakers.
The GTI came with Blaupunkt standard, so that is what it keeps.

My system isnt exactly a big dollar thing to be marvelled at but it is a clarion head unit DRB4675 from memory, its 2 years old. I've had its
predecessor 3675 in my lancer for about 5 yrs. Speakers are just 6 inch 3 way clarion something.
I have had Alpine and Pioneer head units before. The pioneer one spent a lot of its life in pieces on the techies bench. Mongrel thing. The Alpine
went shuzbut intermittently and wouldnt play for a few days. Only problem with either clarion is that some bastard broke into the car and stole the
face off one of them. $150 replacement. Think they were both around the $400 mark. Not saying that pioneer or alpine are no good, but the 2 I had were
lemons.
I'd definitely get one that will play mp3's. Make backup copies of all your CD's and keep the copies in the car. Costs a LOT of money
to replace them when you get broken into.

Hi
Im using a JVC SX 975 head unit with CD and a 12 stacker under the seat, 8 inch Kenwood sub in the rear shelf run by a Kenwood PS 100 amp, 6.5 splits
in the front 1/4s and 6.5s in the rear shelf are run by an Alpine ?? amp. The JVC head unit has 2 sets of preouts.
JVC have an outlet shop in Kingsgrove in Sydney, they often have some good stuff cheap.

ATM i have a sony single disk headunit (came with car), 4" antique poineer (i think) spits in the rear, 6x9 2way explods ($60 at market, unused
as they were a present for an elderly lady and too loud for her) and a 60w Voxon amp/equaliser that i will either chuck on front or rear speakers
(havent decided yet, probably rears) so that i can match the fronts and rears perfectly ($5 at DOVW)
overall the system owes me $80 including the fresh wiring, and sounds wonderful. the bass out of the old splits is phenominal - beats the bass from
the explods!

Hehehehe..... I've got an authentic 1970's Ferris AM/FM Cassette Radio, with original analogue tuning!! Stereo too!!
My plans for a decent stereo have been shelved for the moment, so I'm using my 'Coca-Cola' discman. (ear plugs and all, because my tape player doesn't work! :o)

10" jaycar response sub, two twoway 5" panasonics, coupled with the 2" splits alll on the rear speaker shelf with 19mm MDF. also some
'marathon' 5 inch in the holes under the rear seat, which sound tinny, but hey, you can't hear them unless your speakers are unplugged
cos the shelf is off
amp is a showy 600w bridged (to sub) blue-lit jvc thingy, which is okay, and head is a 30 dollar cash converters kenwood tapedeck, with cd adapter.
also the coke cd player which kinda sorta skips and hits the floor if you drive too fast. more than enough to muffle the idfs on a long drive :thumb

I didnt mention, the head unit I got has a keycard, so i dont have to worry about detachable faces. It wont work without the keycard and the unit
flashes like an alarm led when the card is removed. Also it doesnt look ridiculous, so does not attract thieving lowlifes. Subtlety, Fantastic stuff.
