alpine x5 was stunning, a new standard with very innovative midrange and tweeter locations, the copycats will certainly follow
kicker amps with the cool processing built in
kenwood looks to have possibly gotten their **** together finally
mtx amps did look cool, 22" woofer are just neat no matter what anyone says
the genesis booth gave me a boner, booiiinnnggg
alpines factory in dash lcd interface will be very cool, time will tell how good the new type r will be
magnums and 300's are dealy cars
my liver still hurts
boston accoustic makes cools stuff, hopefully randy does a good job with it
sandy from speaker city is a great guy that i have alot of respect for, very cool dude, if i didnt work where i do and live where i live, i would want to work for nobody else
the award winning car in the dls booth was intersting with its mounting locations, kinda ugly and kinda cool at the same time, wish i gad a chance to listen to it
will post more when my liver recovers

DLS Audi A4 from Finland had a 10" sub facing down in the glove box area and it works nicely. Agree though about all those pods on the dash for the front stage [img]graemlins/freak.gif[/img] Was interesting to listen that A4 and then jump in Keith Downeys DLS car rite after. Truly appreciate the subtle differences between the American and the European sound as well as installation. BTW, someone stole the A4 build up book. That's really [img]graemlins/bs.gif[/img] Never got to finish looking through it to see how the guy did the glove box thing. Wanted to see pictures of all that. 
Las Vegas Tram - oh yeah, no one EVER takes it. It's always empty......... NOT.

I have never gotten info when I'm swiped, they feel their CDN reps should deal with it, even though it seems they don't pass our info onto them.
I used to register with my US address..................
I've even seen people at CES not want to talk to people or even give them Lit if your from Canada............

I got a ton of crap last year with pricing and all, it was very interesting to see what the dollar buys by the container load

Am I the only one that doesn't get excited about the hardware side of car audio? I mean I still love it and think things like the JL cklean sweep are really cool, but's it's not a flashy piece customer's are going to be lining up for (they'll most likely be pissed for being told they need one). I thknk the MTX woofer was cool, but we'll never see one around here. I enjoy checking out new install techniques and tools and stuff on the install side, and I can be pretty excited when talking to customers about gear, but I only looked at the CES pics to pick apart the demo vehicles [img]graemlins/dunno.gif[/img]
