I have a subscription to Performance Auto and Sound which I think is pretty decent and it has Canadian content. [img]graemlins/thumb.gif[/img]

Any other suggestions?

thanks everyone.

I have a subscription to PASmag... It's great - Especially with Dave providing insight and reviews on tons of equipment each month. They also have quite a few feature cars in each issue so you have a good selection of installs to take a look at.

There is also a nice audio section in Sport Compact National, but not quite as extensive as PASmag. They've just recruited Moe Sabourin to write for them so hopefully this section of the magazine will continue to grow.

Some of the dedicated American mobile audio mags are pretty good... Mobile Audio, Car Audio, and Car Sound & Performance are just a few that I purchase on occasion.

Don't forget ME. Mobile Entertainment. I like Tom Nousaine's reviews.

If you can find the british mag called Total Car Stereo I would suggest you check it out.

Chapters usually has a couple of copies, and it's a bit expensive ($12). But so far it's the best mag I can find.

I like Car Audio and Electronics. I love the reviews from Pohlman and Holdaway, a perfect balance of subjective and objective.

I like the reviews in ME, but am not thrilled about the new design, nor is the rest of the audio community from what I am hearing.

I gave up on car audio mags quite some time ago. I found them to be getting really boring. Let see how many tv's we can get in and how big the rims can get. Yawn.
I used to like AS&S back in the day. By far the best mag there was.

I still get them all even though they mostly suck. Actually the last few issues of them (most of the different titles) haven't been bad. ME ran a feature on Scott Buwalda's car which was sweet. And the finals coverage is actually better than it has been in a few years
