That would probably work better for daily driving, but more expensive and just a tad bit heavier than the Odyssey PC680 that Bill uses...14.2 lbs at ~$115-130 with the auto posts...hmmm...

Odyssey also has some others..than the PC680... I need something light but it has to be able to handle the rigors of daily driving as well.

That was my next question. Is the Braille and the PC680 up to regular daily use? All my electronics are OEM (no subs). Any time I can reduce the weight or the cost, I'll do it. Originally Posted by ujokin2

I just got off the phone with the folks at Braille. They recommended this one for daily driving and track. It is carries a warranty for a year ... both daily driving and at the track. If it fails send it back.
