Yes, it's true...Santa dropped off some Old School Car Audio for everyone to enjoy!
First up is the Rockford Fosgate PBR300x4 "boosted rail" amp to match
the PBR300x1 I already have and have tested in a previous video. The
300x4 is a 4 channel amp rated at 75 watts for each of the 4 channels
and is not bridgeable. It is the same TINY size as the 300x1 and will
work great for a stealth install. More details coming soon on this...
Next
up is a rare Infinity Nucleus KPX-2 tri-mode crossover system. This
item also came with the optional FC-1 fader control for Front/Rear
control. Take an old school 2 channel amp and power an entire system
with mids/highs up front, mids/highs in the rear and a subwoofer. The
Nucleus KPX-2 offers a 12dB low pass crossover slope at 75hz and a 6dB
high pass filter at 150hz.
Last, but not least is a Soundstream
Dealer's manual from the mid 90's called the "Heavyweight Boxing"
Subwoofer Enclosure design installation manual. It is an extremely
detailed with specs of the Soundstream subs of the time (SSR, Granite
and SPL models). This extra large manual was for Soundstream dealers and
had an original MSRP of $249 and even has a serial number!

See 3 of the latest items arriving at the OldSchoolStereo.com Labs. I
show off two subwoofers and an ultra-rare NIB set of Boston Acoustics
767 coaxials.
First, you'll see an early 90's Rockford Fosgate
PCH-812 "The Punch" Classic 12" 8 ohm subwoofer in MINT condition. Next
up is an ultra-beefy 10" sub from Eclipse, the 8810.6. This is a single 6
ohm subwoofer made by TC Sounds. 600 watts RMS, 3" peak to peak
excursion and an original retail price of $370 make this a desirable
sub, especially in it's very good condition!
Last up is the
unbelievable...a BNIB set of Boston Acoustics 767 6.5" coaxials. Per
Boston's website, these were made between 1987 and 1993. So, these
speakers have been sitting in the box, untouched for possibly over 20
years? Simply amazing!

See my latest amp arriving at the OldSchoolStereo.com labs....a MINT
Rockford Fosgate Power 500m amplifier, in the box complete with
birthsheet! According to an April 1995 Car Audio & Electronics
Directory, the 500m retailed for $929 back in 1995. This amp and the
250m2 were Rockford's most expensive amps as the infamous 4 channel
Power 300, 650 and 1000 had been retired from Rockford's lineup around
1993 or 1994.
