The Digital Designs DD-CS6.5 CS Series Component Speakers are one of the most amazing sounding component speakers I have ever heard.

Earlier on in the year we started playing around with SPL (Sound Pressure Levels) box designs. Researching, designing, building and testing them until our ears almost bleed at times and then we came across one design we were happy with. This design was used in the states and produced some MASSIVE SPL numbers in a little Honda CRX, we duplicated this design and with this box and four entry level 10″ Sony Subs we managed a 149.9dB in ABTEC3. You can read all about that HERE Since this design worked so well on four entry level 10’s we thought why...
The JBL GTO1214 is a really nice sounding 12″ sub-woofer but that is to be expected from a company that has been making speakers for over 60+ years. The GTO1214 has a nice mix of the sound that you would expect from 10″ and 15″ subs, so it is not a bad option if you like the punch of a 10″ and also the low tones from a 15″ sub. It has a single voice coil and is a 4 ohm sub-woofer. The RMS rating is 350w and can handle 1400w at peak. The sensitivity rating on the GTO1214 is 90 dB...

Reversing sensors are small ultrasonic sensors that are fitted into the rear bumper of the car. When the car is in reverse they will detect any object getting nearer behind the car...
The Sony XAV-72BT is a great In-Car Entertainment System with beautiful video quality and absolutely amazing sound quality! The 7″ Touch-Screen with its large touch buttons makes it a breeze to use/navigate its menus and options. Another cool feature is its gesture commands that allows the user to control the unit with a command stroke on the display, which I found to be quite useful. Soon after using the gestures I found it very easy to change songs/albums without even looking at the unit while driving! The Bluetooth on the XAV-72BT also impressed me with its hands-free/audio-streaming which worked without...
