Best place to buy a DVD Player for M3?

Yianni · #1 (**permalink**) 10-14-2003, 10:34 PM

Hey guys,
I'm looking into buying a DVD Player and new speakers for the M3. I have a older Alpine deck and the harmon/kardon package. Both front speakers are blown, and the head unit won't play all cd's. It cuts the music out when I make a right turn and acclerate, for some reason. So my question is, what's a good website or company to check out for DVD-players (compare pricing) and what are the best speakers to match. Thanks a lot.

I'm am still looking OGS. Today I'm going to check out some different stores, like tweeter and best buy, but I know they usually don't have anything good, and they are always over priced. Could you help me out?

thanks for the compliments Omied. they are 19" MVR Magnums. I went to tweeter yesterday and bought the Alpine IVA-D900. I decided to upgrade all my speakers too, since half of them were blown. I have the harmon/kardon system, but I don't really like it. Thursday is the day I get it installed, I'll get some pictures up after I get it. Thanks again

Ya know what I got? I went to walmart and picked up an Apex DVD player for $40 (Apex Digital AD1110W). It is very small - smaller than a PS2 and will fit perfectly underneath the glovebox.

I've done many tests to see how much stress I can put on the player before it will skip.... so far I can pretty much drive as hard as I can without any issues. For $40 it was well worth it.

I am going to do a write-up on it soon.
