Hi people, If anyone in Newcastle has a nicely sorted SQ car is there any chance I could have a listen to your uber stereo? I have never head a properly setup SQ car and I don't really know what sort of quality I can expect from a car stereo, I know mine is far from good but I would like to be able to compare it to a well set up car.

Thanks,

James.

Not sure if he's quite in Newcastle, but get on to SAM77H on these forums.
His car sounds fantastic and I think he's not far from there.

Wow thanks Marc. Anyone is welcome to have a listen. I am either near Warabrook or Beresfield/ Maitland area.
Pm anytime for my details. Happy to meet fellow enthusiasts (or is it addicts?????)

I just want to say that this car sounds AMAZING!. So clean, I dont know much about what to listen for with depth and stage etc but it sounded bloody awesome and thats all that matters to me! The install so far looks really nice aswell. SO keen to see the final product especially how you are going to fix up those door trims! I might be stealing some install ideas in the future :D

Yeah thanks for the audition Sam, it really made me regret my decision not to buy HAT drivers, I'm too poor at the moment to buy buy more speakers so I'll try and get the most from mine.

Not a problem at all. Always happy to help out if possible. If Newcastle could get the attitude of the guys in Victoria we would all benefit.
Also Scott Buwalda, FHRX and FCA always help me out when I ask something. If they can share their time and knowledge whats anyone elses excuse ?
