Default Personally saying.... I wouldn't brag about being able to purchase Cadence equipment.

That's like bragging about having an all Pyramid stereo system in your car.

I am guessing that you have some sort of complex where you think that you are the only person out there that can get things for cheap.

But... If you think that you will/are going to have something decent, then believe that you will. Personally saying I would never install Cadence equipment in my car. That's like a ghetto fabulous car stereo company.

I'll stick to my Kenwood, JL Audio, AudioControl and Rockford Fosgate equipment in my car. Oh just to rub this one in your face.... I probably paid slightly more for the equipment in my car... but the quality of sound would make you cream in your pants.

Default Actually.... this is insecure.

Since I have a friend who works at Cadence, I can get anything they make at dealer cost. <b>Insecure</b> So nobody can get it for less than I can <b>Insecure</b>. Thats a good thing or so I think <b>Insecure</b>. They do make some of the best car audio subs out there <b>Hopefully Insecure</b>.

My subwoofer UD10-4
<img src="http://www.cadencesound.com/image-bin/2001Products/UDSubs.jpg">

I like the phase plug, it looks cool. I paid $50 for it <b>Insecure</b>, You can buy it for $120 on the net. I like being me <b>Insecure</b>.

My amp (in a week) Q3000
<img src="http://www.autosound.no/Cadence/Bilder/QAmps.jpg">

Its Orange just like the sub, kinky. But it does do a solid 1x300w @ 4ohms and I am not even gonna pay $100 for it <b>Greatfully Insecure</b>. You can pay $200 or so <b>Insecure</b>.

So my nice little sub and amp will have cost me $150 or less <b>Insecure to something you don't own yet</b>, but to anybody else its about $300 <b>Insecure, that someone can't get a better deal out there</b>, for a single 10" and amp. Cadence isnt cheap <b>Insecure, because you really do not know how much Cadence equipment really is</b>, but they do make nice subwoofer stuff if you can afford it <b>Insecure, bahahaha... Sorry I find that extremely funny</b>.

First thing when I get my lazy *** up I am headed over to a local electronics store to buy a kenwood sirius tuner which I will activate <b>Insecure, BTDT. Most of the people who readily read AW have already gotten the Kenwood Sirius tuner, antenna and FM Modulator for free</b>, then when my tuner from crutchfield arrives <b>Insecure, because you didn't know better</b>, I will return that to 6th ave and say I changed my mind. Or if they have a restocking fee, I will tell them that it didnt work <b>Insecure, because you know you got ripped in the first place</b>. Evil I know, but I really dont give a **** <b>Insecure</b>, I dont want to wait till friday to get mine. I really am excited about the satellite radio thing.

Soon enough I will order my Vifa drivers for my car <b>Insecure, why don't you just get all of Cadence's equipment?</b>, then I will have a friend of mine make the crossovers for the drivers.

Sigh....

Default oh yea, to each his own, just dont sound like you are better than everybody else

(and im not saying that you are)

and no im not one of those guys. there are 2 things people go for when making a car stereo system, SQ or SPL, most people i know prefer SQ and i have no problem with them spending a little cash to make their car sound as good as possible. for myself, most music listening i do is in the car.
