Just built a cool database- help me fill it. -- Resource for DIY. Tired of asking/answering the same questions over and over again? You know there is a link out there somewhere but you just can't find it? This database is useful because it offers the ability to sort on several criteria...

I worked in Car Audio for a long time before moving over to home audio and had quite a few systems. I always loved building stuff and installing systems (even though I was a salesman/manager) and always was a big fan of the older Phoenix Gold amps. Think MS1000, M100, Frank-Amp-N'Stein, etc...
