In the past 2 years, I put high end systems in both my 911s—Corey at Prestige Audio & Marine on Causeway did both of the installs. They do everything from a $400 camera installment to complex custom builds and installs.

Give him a call.

You may need more than 200w/ch if you plan on keeping older Magnepan or Martin-Logan CLS and want to play them to their full potential—they drink power!

Worth it to just pick up the vinyls? Or do the CDs have value too? I was thinking of picking it up, keeping the vinyls I want, and selling the rest.

I still buy used CDs.

As for buying the lot of records and CDs, if there are 400-500 titles you like, or want to give an old album a first listen, do it.

Any alternator upgrade?

At the present, a higher current alternator is not needed. I really only listen to it when driving (motor running), and it’s been good so far.

Audiotec Fischer makes a 1,000,000uf capacitor as an option if needed.
