Hi Fi Car Audio
It seems to me that some of the peolpe that posted above have a pretty closed mind when it comes to car-audio. I think it is safe to say that they haven't sat in a car that has been done right. In my car I have an Eclipse 5303 cd tuner, a Pioneer ... 
Original CD vs Remaster vs Gold Disc
If you can find the Mo-FI versions of The Who- Tommy, Who Are You, Quadrophenia, and Who's next, BUY THEM! They are great. The MCA gold of Who's Next is also very good. I have seen the MCA at Best Buy recently. I don't know where you can find the ... 
MP3 players

I really like my Toshiba SD3109. Very good sound and a HDCD decoder built it, all for under $400.It smokes all of the other cd players that I have owned. I looked at the Mitsubishi's, but found out that Toshiba makes Mitsubishi's for them. The on ... 
Removing scratches on CD's
I have been using Meguiare's plastic polish for years on my cd's and it works very well. It takes a lot of arm work but the end result is very good. You can find it at most auto parts stores in the wax aisle. Also a company named Novus makes a pla...
