Editorial Review:

Product Description:
The first edition of this book was written six years ago. Since then, there have been some significant developments in the area of car audio (and video). In addition, many of the products featured in the first edition are now obsolete. While the first edition of the book continues to sell, we have seen a bit of a slow-down at major accounts. This edition promises to be even more successful than the last. Car Stereo Cookbook, 2e is a completely revamped edition of a hugely successful title that continues to sell. This revised book will include new information on mobile video, satellite radio, mp3, wma, digital broadcast radio, and will eliminate the out-of-date products that are no longer pertinent.



Customer Reviews
Average Rating:  out of 5 stars

Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Good information, excellent diagrams and pictures
I started this book with a mild understanding of car stereo's and installation and by the time I was done I was customizing my own stereo with ease. Highly recommended for anyone with a desire for good sound in there vehicle a lot of easy tricks that make a whole lot of difference



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Excellent cookbook for car stereo installation
This book provides excellent background info, good design criteria, and photos illustrating similar installations to those discussed in the different sections. I found the book quite helpful.



Rating: 1 out of 5 stars - Make sure you get the right edition of this book.

Let me just say that A LOT has happened on the car audio scene since 1998, like: Video, multi-channel audio, navigation systems, rear-view cameras, DVD Video, iPod, MP3, Dolby Digital 5.1, DVD-Audio, etc.

In other words, the 1998 edition is not even a good doorstop at this point.

Sure, the basics of pulling cables, using the correct connectors and speaker installation ... Read More



Rating: 3 out of 5 stars - How much did the manufacturers pay for this ad?
I've started a car audio retail business with my brother. He's the technical guy, and I'm the business guy (working on my MBA now). I thought that learning a lot more about the technical aspect of the business could be nothing but good for me, so I picked up this book (the only book on car audio that Border's carried). The book is organized like this:

1) Here's an audio problem
2) Here's a single componant from a single manufacturer that will address the problem.

Instead ... Read More



Rating: 3 out of 5 stars - Jack of all trades...master of none
I took a pretty optimistic approach when reading this book, waiting for the meaty stuff to begin...i was still waiting when i got to the index!

It's a pretty good book if you've got a basic understanding of how to wire the stereo components, and what you want to achieve by modifying your stock car audio system. But if you're looking for specific information of how best to use T/S parameters for desigining the optimum enclosure for your new sub - or choosing one that best meets your desired application, ...
