oh yeah, it's for sale @ $150



















i wouldnt have much of a clue what the above really means, but im looking for something that plays SD cards & flash drives, I don't really care if its not loud enough to be heard 1km away, but i want something that can make some decent bass.... is $150 a alright price? can someone give the audio noob some tips?

looks beter then stock wal-mart has one that plays sdcard/flashcard seems to bee good for onby 79.99

[MessyHonda]

looks like it does lots of stuff...i think sabz has one like that...maybe a lil older.

[mkymonkey]

looks like it should work fine. i mean 35w x 4 is pefectly fine. stock speakers could handle it.....if you still have them.....and some cheapo ones would work fine as well. even high end ones would sound ok.

i say if it does what you want it to, and its in your price range...go for it

looks decent it all really matters if it does what you want it to do....and if its not going to make you broke
