Scott H. Posted May 25, 2009 Share Posted May 25, 2009 Guys, Who would you recommend for scale stereo equipment? What I'm looking for is speakers and monitors for a couple of projects including my diorama. I've found a couple of people selling the decals or printouts that look like speakers on eBay, but I'm wanting the actual 3D style. Thanks, -Scott H.

robertw Posted May 25, 2009 Share Posted May 25, 2009 Detail Master makes three different sheets of p/e speaker covers and MCG makes a p/e sheet of in-dash stereo faces. I believe someone else makes resin speaker boxes but since I've never bought them I don't have a name. robw Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VW Dave Posted May 25, 2009 Share Posted May 25, 2009 I've gotten some very nice resin subs & amps from The Parts Box, although you're on your own as far as cabintery goes(it does vary by the car anyway). Check them out at www.thepartsbox.com , and don't be intimidated by the fact that they're in Australia - their communication and shipping time is second to none. To make it worthwhile, I had 2 buddies go in on an order with me, and we split the postage. If you can find the last issue of AMT's Dodge D-50 pickup, the kit-supplied bed cover had 4 subs molded into it....IIRC they were roughly 15" speakers in scale. I made a latex mold of mine several years back and popped out a few epoxy-resin copies before the mold wore out. The recent Revell snapper Caprice police car has a nice laptop-ish computer, and the screen from that unit could make a nice dash-mounted screen as well.

Scott H. Posted May 25, 2009 Author Share Posted May 25, 2009 Thanks for the replies, -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Rob, I've looked at the photo etched details an I'm not sure they will work for what I'm wanting right now but I have bookmarked it for later ideas. Dave, I have the parts box loaded in another window right now and they have a bunch of stuff on their site! I know what I'm going to be doing for the next hour or so now... I actually have the D50 with the subs in my kit stash. Thanks for the reminder, I had forgotten completely about it!!! I'm going to have to check out the Caprice too, I think I still have the kit, but I'm not sure. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- If anyone else has any other suggestions, please post them. I'm looking for a variety of items for the models and don't know exactly what I'm going to use in them yet. I'm kind of shopping around right now as it were. Thanks again, -Scott H.
