| ***With V8 SOUND****
Cant wait although the designer said the soud module still not finished yet. Sound quality depend on the speaker and box. For this round I use ex-Tamiya MFU (4Ohm, 5Watt), and the quality of playback video depend on the recorder (canon pocket camera). Enjoy the Fj and the sound...
