Default Ebay Items?

Are all those ebay amplifiers any good? Like I see a ton of pyramid stuff like real cheap? Will they do the trick. I know they arent name brand but they seem to be rated well.

yeah, my friend who used to install audio equipment told me that if you really want great sound, quality audio equipment is what you want.

you can buy the most powerful amps, speakers and subs you want, but if it is made outta cheap crap, it will still sound terrible.

the bottemline is that quality brands are more important than bargain basement garbage with high wattage specs.

pryamid/legacy sound decnt at low volumes.

dude, the only thing good to buy for your car on ebay is an intake.. i bought a cheap one that came with a k&n cone filter and it works great.. best thing to do is to just look at the sellers feedback.. if its good chances are hes good.
