Im looking to ad a new FM/AM Radio with a CD player, I decided to keep the orignal AM radio in the console for looks, and get one of them Secret Stereos. Now I was wondering if anyone has bought one of these? And what's some good speakers to get for the front? And then I saw in a parts catalog I can get rear speakers, what would the best bet be there? The ones I saw were rear subs with a 200watt amp. Now I am a teenager, and I love to blast my music. So Im really looking for something that will blast some good ol rock and thump to some new beats. Suggestions?

 

I suggest doing like i have done. Im 17, and love to blast too, even though im deaf now...... I installed a Kenwood 200 watt Cd player under the dash, where i can reach it. Doesn't look to bad. Then get the kick panels, for speakers, and buy any good name brand speakers. I have got pioneers, and aren't too please, but they have high wattages, that the radio cant push. I have two 4x6 speakers in the rear package tray, and 2 12 inch subs and amp in the trunk. IF you want trunk space, i suggest gettting the thing you said. I have seen that, and it's not a bad deal.

 

ya i would get any of that secret radio crap or kenwood either. get a nice JVC Panasonic or Eclipse and get soem good componets up front now rear speakers unless you want subs and a good amp for your comps.

 

I always thought it was a good idea to put a hidden cd player in the glove compartment, that way you don't have to rely on a remote.

 

Can you post pics of your setup? And how you got the cd player mounted?

 

I just had a VERY expensive system installed into my car. I have 5.25" speakers in custom speaker kickpanels up front. 4"x10" speakers to fill in my rear. I have two 10" subs in my trunk along with two amps (1 for speakers, 1 for subs). I have my alpine cd headunit under my glove box. It looks pretty stealthy there and is semi-reachable if I need to access it, but I use a remote mostly. To get it under the glove box I used this

MY STEREO JUST GOT BURNED OUT AND IM NOT SURE IF THATS REPAIRABLE(DOES ANYONE KNOW IF ITS REPAIRABLE?) BUT IF NOT IM THINKING ABOUT BUYING THE SECRET AUDIO SS. WITH 2 6X9 IN THE BACK,WITH 4X10 IN THE DASH, AND MAYBE PUT A 200 WATT AMP IN THE TRUNK! P.S. RIGHT NOW I HAVE THE STEREO THAT HAS AM/FM/CD CONT.

 

I just fabricated the little sleeve that came with my stereo. I drilled holes in the top, and screwed it in the dash. Ill go and take some pictures, but i dont know how to put them on here. CAn somebody help me?

Damn, I got some pictures for you, big there too big in size to load onto my picture page. Tomorrow, Ill post the pictures. Are you looking for anything in particular? I got two pictures of the radio, and a pic of my trunk. You want anything else? i didn't get up close shots of the radio, and how it's mounted. If you want, i can try and get a better picture of that too.
