The Dynatron D7600 4 Star Car Alarm is not a bad alarm if you are in the market for a 4 Star Car Alarm, it has forced entry protection of doors, boot and bonnet with an intelligent glassbreak sensor. Its audible warning is achieved via a 115dB standard siren (Not battery back-up), visually the warning is made via the vehicles indicators and via a dash mounted high intensity Blue LED. The Remote transponder automatically disables the immobiliser and/or alarm when it comes into range of the ignition barrel. I guess for a lot of people this feature makes their already busy life...
Its not very often that I get excited about a iPod-Dock/Ghetto-blaster but when I was told that there was going to be a replacement to the already successful Sony G-Tank I just knew this was going to be good! And what Sony has put together is on a complete new level compared to the G-Tank, the Sony RDHGTK33IP was everything I expected it to be and even more! The first thing that I did when the Sony RDHGTK33IP arrived was try out the iPhone/iPod dock, the iPod-Dock has a support arm that lowers on-top of your iPod/iPhone to stop it shaking and...
The Alpine CDE-110E is the latest entry level Head-Unit in the Alpine line up, he new CDE-110E is the replacement of Alpine’s CDE-100EUB This new version will continue to have all the features of the CDE-100EUB such as front USB & AUX input, along with full MP3/WMA music file playback for all your digital media playback The display has blue illuminated buttons, and a 1-Line LCD display for select CD text. The simplicity of Alpines display is something I’ve always liked as there is nothing worse than a cluttered display. In different words Alpine has always been function over form and I am...
Yet again Digital Designs have upped the quality of a product I didn’t even think they could improve any more, with the DD-DXB-01 being superseded by the NEW DD-DXB-01.1! The sound quality of the DD-DXB-01.1 has been lifted to a new level when compared to the older DD-DXB-01 and this is no surprise when you take into consideration the housings are now made of Bubinga hardwood. This makes perfect sense to change the housings to wood over plastic too, as the best sounding speakers I’ve have ever heard have always been in wooden boxes. Also using a dense hardwood enhances the low frequencies...
In the world of Bluetooth, most head-units are very costly and out of a lot of peoples ideal price range. The Panasonic CQ-RXBT490W is the bridge of the Bluetooth Head-Units in my opinion as it is a very affordable unit! The sound quality of the Panasonic CQ-RXBT490W is pretty good considering it only has a 3-Band equalizer (Bass, Mid, Treble). Only having a 3-Band equalizer or EQ-3 as some people put it can make adjusting your EQ relativity easy, on the other hand this also makes your sound options limited which can be an issue for some people but definitely not everyone....
Out of all the double-din head-units I have had the chance to play with the Pioneer AVH-P8450BT has to be my favourite so far! The first thing I noticed was how straight forward it was to use and also how fast the touch screen worked. Most touch screen double din head-units have a slight delay but not the AVH-P8450BT, it was very instant which makes things a lot nicer/easier to use especially in today’s no-time-to-wait world we live in now! The sound quality of this unit is nothing short of amazing, I spent a good half an hour playing with...
Wonder why? After 35 years in the car audio and security installation business I can honestly say I have never heard of any competitor recommending Abtec to its customers. I never expect to either. That would be as unlikely as Ford recommending Holden. Just wouldn’t happen. Along the same line but even sillier – what would you think of Ford if they said to their customers “we do not recommend Holden”? Not that they ever would. And anyway, put like that it’s as good as a recommendation. Even more ridiculous would be a business that bad-mouths a competitor to its...
To create the new D-Series speakers for the Pioneer TS-D1720C components, Pioneer developed the industry’s first basalt fiber made from natural rock interwoven with aramid fiber. Used in the surface layer, this Aramid/Basalt Fiber material is highly rigid and better absorbent, enhancing stability and maintaining integrity throughout a wide temperature range. Rear Chamber Tweeter Enclosure D-Series speakers feature an exclusive rear chamber tweeter enclosure that we first used in our famed PRS speakers. It extends mid-range frequency for improved vocal imaging and staging. High-Quality Crossover The built-in -12dB/Octave HPF and LPF crossover improves the transition from mid to high frequency, for...
The Digital Designs 3500 Series Sub-woofer has to be one of the nicest sounding sub-woofers I’ve ever had the chance to use and listen to. They range from 10″ all the way up to a 18″, the models being : DD-3510e-2 (10″), DD-3512e-2 (12″), DD-3515e-2 (15″) and the DD-3518e-2 (18″). And its no wonder they sound so amazing when the same technology that goes into the 9500 Series voice-coils are used in the 3500 Series too! The motor system used in the 3500 Series also utilizes the Digital Designs exclusive FREE FLOW COOLING SYSTEM, they have increased the number of...
