Oh come on old man... teasing is my job remember?

navin · 21st April 2006, 16:35

7th floor, 7th heaven, 7 brides, Se7en, 7x7 (Boeing), all sorts of 7 floating around. You see 7 is a much used number in Mumbai we have a place called Saath Rasta.

KISS used the word 7 in their song Do you love me in 1980

You really like my limousine
You like the way the wheels roll
You like my seven inch leather heels
And goin’ to all of the shows, but
Do you love me, do you love me

those familiar will know that there was a pregent pause after the word "inch" when they samg that song.

All these are the CDA series? I found that only CDA series have 3 pre-amp outs

navin · 24th April 2006, 13:19

Dear Audioites...

I felt wonderful to have finally bounced on a right forum for all my audio questions...

I thank my friend in Bangalore living in Mantri Residency who has provided me this guidence to join this group of elite audio fun loving people.

I have a Tata Indica Lxi. I am planning to fit my audio system for dat...

I am planning to go for a Blaupunct Bahamas / Bermuda / Monterrey for my head unit.

I am planning to fix JBL Components 5.25" in the front, and JBL 6" x 9" coaxials for the rear. I am planning to cut some portion in my plastic plate already provided to me in the rear of my car rather than buying an MDF.

I am planning to go for a Sub + amp later on when I have some more money...

Now, I need your valuable comments on the above so that you could give me a good picture on the Do's and the Don'ts...

I trust you will help me out.

Luv,
Anand.

Installers, what are the stock front speaker location specs for Lancer (older models) ?

I always thought it was 5.25" but my friend says he knows someone with 6 - 6.5" not sure if this was stock or they used custom pod.
