the other day i went to press the volume button on my stock monsoon (i broke the one on my steering wheel) and hit a bump and hit my clock screen... now the damn thing don't work so good... any way to fix this?

[TransAm11973]

what exactly is it doing?

what exactly is it doing?

the clock display doesn't work in the dark but is viewable in bright light... i knocked that little glass plate out of where it sits...

its not hard to take the face off the stereo. just a really small flat headed screw driver to pop tabs, and a 7/16 socket to pull the nut out from behind the volume knob. i could tear mine down and give you a write up if needed

i thought about doing it... i'll have to check it out more once i get my car back from the shop... i'm to lazy any more to swap motor mounts...

I know this prob don't help much but.....why not upgrade to a new deck? I would say pop a new Alpine in there, then that would be pimp! You could prob score one real cheap!

personally i like the EQ on the monsoon... have a treb, bass and mid eq is fucking gay as hell... i like to get my sounds EQ perfect... i know i could get a after market radio, amp and stand alone EQ... but the monsoon is fine for me...

I hear that, Im such a perfectionist when it comes to sound and eq'ing right (maybe cause I'm a musician and do a lot of studio work!) As far as the stock stereo thing goes, I used to be that way...stock was way easy to use and it did the trick....till I upgraded! Alpines, and most every aftermarket deck has EQ's on it but in Digital form! My Alpine has pretty much a full 30 band eq that I can adjust at will and a whole shit ton of preset eq settings! Takes like 5-10 min or so for me to adjust bass, mids, and highs to my likings, and I can store into memory, then if it doesn't suit a specific song, I just change it or change it to one of the many presets!

It's just a matter of personal preference, and I'm not trying to change your mind or convert you or anything like that....just giving my .02 on the subject!
Stock is stock...aftermarket is upgrade!

i agree with you... i am also a musician... (play guitar, bass, drums, and i fuck around on the keyboard) but i'm more intrested in making my car fast atm... once i have reached close to 500 rwhp i'll start with the stereo stuff...

See, so you know what I am talking about! My problem is that I tend to focus on both...Performance and appearance! Drives the wife insane how one min I get something for the engine or the suspension, and the next min I'm getting new lighting or new lenses, etc..

How close are you to your goal of 500 rwhp? I'm sitting at 390 right now, but after my custom Lingenfelter LT1, supercharged, and some other shit, I'll be closer to 600 rwhp! My goal is 600-700 and that will be good enough for me!
