Video: Ian "The Iceman" Pinder Hair Trick Demo

Our buddy Adam Raynard of the UK car audio site Talk Audio covered the Modified Nationals 2008 show across the pond and had a chance to shoot video of some girls getting a demo of Ian's crazy Vauxhall Astra van we showed you a few weeks ago  (you know, the one with six 15" HCCAs, 20 HCCA amps, 48 woofers, 48 tweeters....). According to Adam:

"Ian spent a large portion of his day allowing girls to experience the hair trick and we videoed a few. I reckon they are intense as any I’ve seen anywhere else. Check out me saying “No REALLY Put Your Fingers In Your Ears Girls!” and they do – a split instant before all hell breaks loose and their hair goes out two feet sideways and all over!"

New Guest Blogger: Welcome Adam Rayner!

SoundDomain is proud to announce the addition of another guest blogger to our happy family. Please welcome Adam Rayner from the UK's Talk Audio:

"I have always wanted to say this and it's a far bigger venue than mere cities and the Rock n' Roll stages I used to sound engineer...
HELLO AMERICA!
Let me introduce myself:
I'm Adam Rayner, a quaint but reassuringly chubby Limey whose history in journalism and technology led him to a life in Mobile Electronics. I've been doing it for ages now, and it's fair to say that as far as small rocks off the coast of Europe go, I'm kinda 'F' list celebrated in the UK scene. As our site, Talk Audio (.co.uk) now has blogs and all sorts of new stuff, I figured it was time to take up SoundDomain's kind invitation to become a mobile electronics overseas blogger for you perky American fellows.
What'll follow are pretty much what I'll be penning for the UK guys, but with some occasional translatory items. For instance we would need to have the Ricola and Spicy meatball advert gags explained to us, and you would need to know that a 'Ronseal product' in the UK vernacular means it does exactly what it says on the tin."

We're looking forward to adding Adam's contributions to SoundDomain! The UK has a booming mobile electronics scene, and getting a little taste of what's happening on the other side of the pond will add an interesting and unique flavor to the SoundDomain recipe! To get a little history on Adam, check out his bio on the About Us page.

Alpine UK Fiat 500 Show Car

I wandered over to the be-all-and-end-all UK car audio site, TalkAudio, to check out their new site design and stumbled on this hot little Fiat 500 from Alpine's UK division. This car is actually smaller than the current MINI Cooper, but Alpine UK still managed to stuff an amazing amount of gear into the little cockpit. Follow the jump for the complete system list and some pics of this geared-up MINI fighter!
