POLL: Electronics & Car A/V Sub Forum

[cybereclipse]

Should we have a subforum for electronics and car audio/visual??

There are a lot of ppl here who have done installs and could help ppl with future installs
(like me:D )
for example, grave77's pc install on his 8 series and other stuff like that...

so yup yup

vote ppl...

EDIT:
i forgot to add the poll
doh!!:(

just say what u want i guess...

Yes: 9
No:1

EDIT:
im guessing that the majority likes this idea...
who do we tell to add this subforum in??

[indierthanthou]

that would be great, ive been thinking about installing a mac mini in my car

[Incantation]

yes

[gmannino]

7 year pro experience as an installer/owner. Could help with many troubleshooting problems in a forum like that.

[Blitzkrieg Bob]

yeah

it would help, especially with the Cd changer questions

[Gayle]

Sounds good to me (no pun intended :D )

[Ross]

Yes

[215m3]

a yep from me as well as i'm building my sub boxes and about to install it all in my E30 325 convertible

[attack eagle]

no.

INstall questions are almost always by model, and there are other forums out there that already have the generic BMW Car A?V forum, product recommendation thing going on.
And also many that serve the novice or PnP audio people. And then there is the SQ contingent. They have their own forums.

[Boone.Msi]

i say yes

alot of other forums have 90% BS in their threads, Bimmer.info is always 90% info and thats how i like it.

If we get an A/V section there will be info from the pro's not that 16 year old kid with his"1000" watt subs.

how you gonna make that happen???

every 16 year old kid with alpine, kicker, audiobahn etc thinks they ARE a pro. :D

[Boone.Msi]

yea true...

Hopefully intimidation?

I dunno, guess it might have to be one of those "we'll just have to see what happens" sort of things. I just get this vibe that there is alot more maturity on this forum, so we wont see that much of the nopi crowd here.

[Jon K]

no, no one runs video setups

[BigKriss]

yes a subforum for A/V, but subforums for other areas also

[AngryPopTart]

I say no to a forum, but yes to a general sticky thread which pertains to either working with or upgrading your factory deck and speakers and optionally adding a subwoofer+amp. Meaning you have a list of: 1) speakers people have used to replace their factory speakers in factory locations. 2) Decks to replace the factory deck in the factory location. 3) Wires to replace factory wires.

It's a BMW! Upgrade the system tastefully for your own listening pleasure inside of your own cabin space and please proceed to tell us about it so we can do the same or similar. Personally, I don't want to hear about how you can feel the bass from across a Walmart parking lot.

[Boone.Msi]

no, no one runs video setups

maybe more will if they are opened up to new ideas. If i had the funds, i would have started on mine my now.

Where did you get your parts Jon? Newegg.com has always been a great source for me.
