All you need to mdo is go into Best Buy and ask one of their car audio professionals what you should get to have a killer system. They are "known" for their great service, selection, and knowledge.










just so you know, I was being sarcastic. They are a terrible place to have anything done, and the equipment that is decent is WAYYYYYYYYYY over priced.

Yeah the dynamat is like 100 per coupe door kit (12 sq ft I believe) there so it isn't worth it.

I think best buy does sell alpine IIRC.

And Alpine is one of the few brands where you can by ALL your equipment from that brand and come out with a good system. So that makes it easy haha.

I'd get gamin stuff but since I have no use my left hand still itd be pointless lol. I have some some RF comps up front right now so I could get some rear fills or a 2ch or 4ch amp. I can get stuff online too. I have all the computer stuff I need too. Got surround sound and all that. Got badass head phones too. Ill see wat the got in store tomorrow and post some ideas

Get a 2nd monitor, By far one of the best computer upgrades you can do as far as price, productivity, ease of use, and bang for the buck.

Then don't forget a second video card so you can use your 2nd monitor.

if it a desktop and using intergrated graphics, then he will likely need a video card, but a laptop can usually get by w/o one if he don't mind using the s-video output (if equiped)

Two problems.... usually that output shares the video on the first display and is not independent, altough not always the case.


And the resolution of S-video sucks. Standard def TV. Nowhere near suitable for a monitor, which use even higher resolution than HDTV.

i have a laptop, its got DVI and Svideo out, My laptop has a 17" screen so it does good. When i was at best buy today, the only car audio stuff i saw that i would consider was this infinity amp for like 150 and some Type R comps, and I'll put use the tweets it comes with up front instead of the RF tweets.

also this alpine amp
http://www.bestbuy.com/site/olspage.jsp?skuId=8699349&type=product&id=1199494646 190

any other ideas guys?

I would seriously get another monitor, especially if you have a DVI output. It is not how big your 1st monitor is, it is what you can do with 2 monitors. I run 4 monitors, very convient plus the "wow factor" doesn't hurt either. lol Once you start running 2 monitors, you will miss it when not at your computer, trust me.

With a DVI out it will work. Running 2 monitors that is, independently.
