    Hiya folks, can someone please lecture me through the car audio history (from the simple car radio to the current mp3 players). I'm on a project and want to get my facts straight before I proceed.
    Thanks Franco ^_^

    Well, it all started with the tube am radio..........now we are here....


    that is a broad topic that would take ALOT of typoing and research....the advent of FM, then the 8 track, but lets not forget the creation of Quadrophonic, or even the DBX systems, how about the time that a reel - reel was put into the car.....Or better yet, the arrival of Digitial processing in the car.............

    wow, LARGE subject field!!!

    once again I am brain farting, what was the question?

    The article did not mention that Galvin was broke, he could not afford a booth at the 1930 Convention in Atlanta. He stayed in the parking lot with his radio blaring. Enough conventioners heard and saw the car radio. He got enough orders to start production on the radios.
