Anyone off here got any experience with their headunits? I'm finiding out on behalf of a mate who has about as much knowledge of stereosystem stuff as me Nuff said eh.... SO how do you rate them- in comparison to other makes ie: Pioneer, Panasonic, Sony, Kenwood etc?? Good points/bad points- you get the drift...

As for the stereosystem stuff ie: subs, comps and amps-how do you rate them again ie: sound quality etc and value for money? It's mainly the 2003 gear (silver amps etc).

Any help is appreciated!

I've got a rockford sub and amp (silver amp, and sub), very good quality, great value for money, I'd say they're up there with the best brands

As far as their headunits go they are mainly for SQ purposes. Most of them have 4x50w (genuine) outputs and they have three 8v preouts

Example of one of their units:



They do look a little bling too, so if you have a fosgate unit people know ur an SQ junkie.

Steve i think the unit will go lovely with ur gf's comps

All of their other equipment is genuine and top notch, including their budget ranges which imo u cant beat value for money with.

Their old units are well trick. Some of them had a 'secret' setting available on them to switch on hidden amps through a remote activated switch. Brilliant for SPL nuts. They used to love it!

my girlie has one, its pretty damn good really. After you get through the HUGE book of what everything is on the system, you have a very good unit.

Im pretty damn impressed with it.

Cant remember which model she has now, but its one of the new ones. Top range jobbie
