Man what nice trip down memory lane!! Very nostalgic goodies right there. Seen so many Pyramid EQ's at the fleamarket back in the day. The Optimus equipment wasn't half bad either. It's too bad the internet put Radio Shack out of business. Then again, they were taken over several times by different owners. They weren't the same by the time they went under. I liked it better when they were Tandy. Awesome video bro. 👌
Love all of your content Big D! Can't get enough, watched every video, most of them several times. If you ever get a chance a video of 2 amp strapped vs the same 2 gain matched, might be cool, always been curious if they do twice the power at 2ohms. I recently changed my set up from strapped to gain matched and I think it sounds a little better. Was hard to get the output equal though, seemed like when you turned one amp up, it caused the other to go down 😆 Might of just been my volt meter. Anyways looking forward to your next video, cant wait to see if the hcca can handle the .5 dynamic test. Till next time Bro, keep being you!
I stayed away from cd players in the car for along time. Turn it up and skip skip.. Radio shack i haven't been to a radio shack in a long time.. I dont think we have 1 in spokane anymore..
Back in the early 90s, my 2nd car stereo was a Optimus cd player(1st was a Majestic cassette and amp.) running a pair of Pioneer TXS-6, a Coustic 380, and a pair of mutant pawn shop 15"s.
Great video Big D!!! 👍👍👍 I can remember seeing these in some flea markets back in the mid to late 90s for about $100.00 give or take!!! RADIO SHACK always sold good products but they we're always very pricey you could always find their stuff cheaper elsewhere!!! I think in my life time I have only brought like three items from RADIO SHACK!!!
Back in the day, you have two options: 1.)Get a tape head unit(Alpine!!) then buy the CD changer later. 2.)Get a CD head unit 3.)for me: Get a tape unit and use one of those Aux tape devices and plug in your Discman
Lol nice video Big D, reminds me of driving around back in the day, my first radio was a clarion pull out, whole thing slid out with the handle on it lol, push in and pop out treble and bass knobs cassette and when the Sony CD players came out got one too later in 94, they skipped like crazy I had a Jeep and it got so bad a semi hard shift would make it skip, remember there was no loud button had to hold select and one of the number buttons for loudness to come on , oh the memories!!!
Jay ........ lol, I had the "first Sony's pull outs.... lol walkin around the mall wit my head unit doe.... u couldnuh told me sh¡t back then..... oh the gud ol days....
My dad had this Optimus cd36 in his 1989 S10 Blazer. Really cool deck the only problem is after about a 2-hour road trip it heats up gets pretty hot. It also has a tendency to scratch CDs in the same exact spot upon ejecting. But it's really cool to hear the eject and CD insert sound again! that brought back a lot of memories.
That’s a sick bass CD! Only the best kind of homies would send ya something like that 😜 RadioShack had a few nice products back in the day... The Nova 55 headphones were some of my favorite in fact.
Holy crap!!! I got one of those for christmas. I was a junior in high school, circa 1992. It was cool because you mounted it under your dash so you could still keep the tape deck in the dash.
Nice deck! That would fit beautifully in an 85-90 model year car... 0 bling factor to clash with the old dashboard. I love that eq too, but the face is kinda ick with all the chrome and text. If it were plain black it would fit right in with that CD deck. Keep it up, i'd love to see more old school finds of average stuff every once in a while :)
That EQ was the first install I ever did for someone, hooking it up in a old 69 Buick something back in 85 before I could even drive I was hooking up Auto Sounds
I came here for a review on an OG Optimus CD player my neighbor had back in the day...... And immediately hit subscribe when you hit me with the Echo on the Pyramid 808 EQ. 😍😍😍
That is a cool deck. I wish they made more stand-alone decks, especially cassette decks, with preouts that were this quality. I got back into cassettes and been looking for a good stand-alone deck to hook to my modern SQ system. I made one DIY using a Delco deck from an 89 Pontiac Sunturd, but the faceplate looks really out of place (light gray face with red backlit buttons.)
Cool I actually liked the 93 quasar light blue and red pinstripe Pontiac sunbird Le even though I didn't care for the dash because of the audio system sections of the head unit control head, but I wasn't really a fan of the 2.0 H.O. gm 4cylinder motor it had especially since at 115k miles it needed a replacement cylinder head and a good known used casting checked over of a sealed running motor from a auto network recycler inc was cracked between where the cam followers went anyways I ended up getting rid of the car rather than putting a Buick 3800v6 series 1 motor in it because a new bare cylinder head casting and only found 2 in 2003 was going to cost me $1,250 plus $250 shipping and since the replacement was $450 I said nope unfortunately other than the head being cracked and the exhaust smoking because of the cracked head car ran great, unfortunately no one wanted to give anything for it so I sold it to the scrapyard and that was a shame considering as nice as the paint was and that it only had a dime size rust hole in the rear quarter panel right behind the Dr side door
This was my first CD player LOL I had a special relay that was 4 pole double throw that I used to switch my speakers back and forth between one of these CD players and a Clarion two knober tape deck that was pretty high-end for the time.
Add to this a Pyramid PB 900G amplifier, a 400W 3 ways Focal or Pioneer speakers on a Volskwagen combi and you will have the perfect time machine to the nineties.
In high school, we bought so much Radio Shack car audio stuff just to try it out. Most of it sucked which is why we returned most of it. The store manager didn’t like our little posse of car audio buyers/returners. The winter after high school, that same manager was kidnapped after closing up for the day, driven down the freeway, robbed, and then murdered. True story. Big Rapids, MI 1995.
Love the powered EQ. I had a Jet Sound Laboratories JS-70 and a Pioneer Supertuner cassette deck in my first car, I thought was the sh*t with my Becker 6x9's.
I had Optimus speakers too, they looked like Bookshelf speakers but where for mounting in the rear deck. Now I am going to date myself here, but I will tell you the best back in the day speakers I ever owned were Jensen Mind Blowers 6X9's in my 1968 Ford Torino fast back Fire Engine red with a 390 and 4 speed. Man that was loud! The speakers were too.
BigDWiz they were thing back then. Cannot recall how loud they where but once an old guy walked up and said, "Can't believe Sight and Sound is now in a car." That also dates me. Sights and sounds used to have chains all over the us. Best buy for audiophiles. Lol 🤣
Wednesday I dug out a couple of Realistic(budget Optimus) equalizers(one 7 band 40 watt booster,one with 6 channel rca outputs(2 sub).Also a 80w+80w amp.Optimus decks outlasted Pioneer decks from the late 80s and 90s for me.
That was my first CD player in high school. Mounted it under dash and had a Targa cassette player. The CD player skipped pretty bad. Upgraded to in-dash Sony CD player a while later.
Had one for a week , than I found a guy selling Alpines out of his trunk at my high school . Yeah the 80’s were different than today . He got away with it and I got somthing better than the Shack for 40 bucks.
Takes me back to when I was 16 and got a Realistic booster/Eq combo. Later, I got a smaller Audiovox one at - wait for it - Service Merchandise. That was BCC. Before Circuit City Era.
I remember those.. but I was young & broke and the best I could do was a CD walkman on a little pillow on the tunnel.floor.. with a headphone to cassette adapter...
Did everyone else get a copy of this that had a Marvel Studio "stay after credit clip" of an Orion amp half ohm dynamic test that left us hanging? LOL!
big d wiz I came across an old school Alpine amp v12 303 two channel and a pair of old school Sony xplod 12s this pass weekend. I passed on the amp because I didn't think it would be enough power for the subs
I remember that...i was in the 8th grade and was bummed cause everyone was like tape cassette players are going away and CD players are in but SUPER expensive.
Wow, now I really feel old because I remember when cassette players were expensive. Couldn't wait to get my hands on one that could play metal tapes, had Dolby C, auto reverse (because having to eject and flip the tape for music on the other side was a pain) and had AMS (auto music search) with the ability to skip several songs. Hey, only having to wait 20 to 30 secs to skip 3 tracks was cutting edge back in the day. Also, compared to 8 track tapes that you could only "play" or "fast forward", - being able "rewind" on a cassette was amazing! 🤯😂😂
Put that pyramid on that dyno 300watts yeah..had audiovox eq under tha dash realistic speakers in the dash and home speakers in the back from the home stereo. Then go some Jensen 6x9s rockin old school mix tapes..ahaha
I had one of those! I sold it to a pawn shop after I realized it was putting 3 little jagged scratches on my CD’s! Then I got a Sony that I had till it was stolen out of my sister’s XTerra.
Yeah they were pretty cool back in the day...he had two Yamaha amps as well, I forget the model number for the mids and highs but the sub amp was a YPA-1000 on two 15s in a Geo Storm.

So true, true, true 👈😊
Used to have an 18 disc changer and a headunit from clarion... Connected to a Sony xec-505 and eq, couple of rf punch amps... Kinda mis al that stuff.
Man what nice trip down memory lane!! Very nostalgic goodies right there. Seen so many Pyramid EQ's at the fleamarket back in the day. The Optimus equipment wasn't half bad either.

Love the retro gear. I miss the eqs from back in the day. 😀👍
I still have a Optimus amp sitting in the garage !!! I loved the shack !!!
Was one of my first amps way back when. Had it hooked to an 8" JBL in a bucket xD in a 1975 Trans Am
Just ran across your channel....I subscribed....trying to catch up with all your video's....man wish we had you tube back in the early 80'....
No doubt! Best part about showing it now is the quality of today’s cameras
Radio shack special!My first set of subwoofers was a set of optimus 8s that was in 98
Ari Reid
My second system was four of the Optimus 12s. 😁
Ari Reid holy shit mine two the black and purple ones. Good ole days
Damn now you got me looking for my pioneer tapedeck and 6500eq. Love seeing oldschool music.
I remember when those came out! I used to work at Radio Shack back in 1990-1991!!! Hahaha
Awesome. That .5 ohm teaser at the end is going to haunt me until I see it. Lol.
He he he 👈😊
The Sony head units of the early 90's (before the Xplod series) were the shizzzz! Way ahead of their times. Love your oolllllddddd school videos!!!
wuhzupers witya No doubt! I sold the crap out of the CDX-5460 back then.
Kentucky Klawttery yes indeed they were... when they were Sony Mobile ES!!
I loved the first years of the xplod they were great
That thing is neat. I've actually forgotten stuff like this was around back in the 90s. Thanks BigD.
Love all of your content Big D! Can't get enough, watched every video, most of them several times. If you ever get a chance a video of 2 amp strapped vs the same 2 gain matched, might be cool, always been curious if they do twice the power at 2ohms.

I really miss radio shack
Leroy Cole Jr there really is a need for radioshack! They shouldve had better managment wouldve been open today
The original Radio Shack yes. Not the get your cell phone here Radio Shack
I read they are reopening but as a section of hobby lobby.
I stayed away from cd players in the car for along time. Turn it up and skip skip..
Radio shack i haven't been to a radio shack in a long time.. I dont think we have 1 in spokane anymore..
Bobdodge me to they had bad about skipping especially if you go down a bumpy road
Back in the early 90s, my 2nd car stereo was a Optimus cd player(1st was a Majestic cassette and amp.) running a pair of Pioneer TXS-6, a Coustic 380, and a pair of mutant pawn shop 15"s.
Brother you have brought back many memories...wow. Great video Thank you
I had alot of Optimus stuff back in the day...the 340 four channel amp. And the radio shack 80 × 80 amp
Forget the boring cd player I want more of the eq/booster that thing looks cool! Had a couple pyramid 10"s back in the day they were aight
Nice find bro! But that pyramid "booster" tho...... that's gold and some of their best work......
Great video Big D!!! 👍👍👍 I can remember seeing these in some flea markets back in the mid to late 90s for about $100.00 give or take!!! RADIO SHACK always sold good products but they we're always very pricey you could always find their stuff cheaper elsewhere!!!

2.)Get a CD head unit
3.)for me: Get a tape unit and use one of those Aux tape devices and plug in your Discman
Ahh memories! I had all the Optimus home theater components and Realistic speakers in my car!🔥
Nice! Optimus was the brand to go to back in the day. I have a theater receiver and love it.
I had that exact same CD player when it was new lol
Lol nice video Big D, reminds me of driving around back in the day, my first radio was a clarion pull out, whole thing slid out with the handle on it lol, push in and pop out treble and bass knobs cassette and when the Sony CD players came out got one too later in 94, they skipped like crazy I had a Jeep and it got so bad a semi hard shift would make it skip, remember there was no loud button had to hold select and one of the number buttons for loudness to come on , oh the memories!!!

Just cool nostalgia, not anything I’d want to use today
rome seveneightsixnine lol yep thought we were cool mofos til the detachable faces came out
BigDWiz yep definitely much better sound and quality today, fun to reminisce for us older cats👌🏻👌🏻
Jay ........lol, IKR
My dad had this Optimus cd36 in his 1989 S10 Blazer. Really cool deck the only problem is after about a 2-hour road trip it heats up gets pretty hot. It also has a tendency to scratch CDs in the same exact spot upon ejecting. But it's really cool to hear the eject and CD insert sound again! that brought back a lot of memories.

That’s a sick bass CD! Only the best kind of homies would send ya something like that 😜 RadioShack had a few nice products back in the day... The Nova 55 headphones were some of my favorite in fact.
The Alpine tech on FB thinks it may be an Alpine Transport...hmm, may have to crack her open
BigDWiz got to now!
Holy crap!!! I got one of those for christmas. I was a junior in high school, circa 1992.
It was cool because you mounted it under your dash so you could still keep the tape deck in the dash.
Little nostalgia for you today
These had TURRIBLE, TURRIBLE, TURRIBLE shock/bump protection! If you ran over even the slightest bump, the damn thing would SKIP LIKE CRAZY!!!
OMG, I need that CD!
Optimus?! Damn homie, that's a true class right there!
Oh, Snap, I actually had this cd player back in the day. this was my 1st car CD player...
Used to have that EQ used to run my highs mids off that eq
1990 ford tempo back in early 90s
Would really love you see you do more head units, crossovers and other components.
Nice deck! That would fit beautifully in an 85-90 model year car... 0 bling factor to clash with the old dashboard. I love that eq too, but the face is kinda ick with all the chrome and text. If it were plain black it would fit right in with that CD deck. Keep it up, i'd love to see more old school finds of average stuff every once in a while :)
It was installed in the 1937 Ford I recently got. Extra stuff for “free” 😜
I had that CD player AND that Pyramid EQ!
That EQ was the first install I ever did for someone, hooking it up in a old 69 Buick something back in 85 before I could even drive I was hooking up Auto Sounds
I came here for a review on an OG Optimus CD player my neighbor had back in the day...... And immediately hit subscribe when you hit me with the Echo on the Pyramid 808 EQ. 😍😍😍
miss those EQ's with effects. great video!

So much memories. Dawnnn time flies
That pyramid EQ brought back memories
Just ordered some merch. Quick and easy. Keep it old school D!
Thanks for the support brother!
Ahhh mannnn....u went in the crates 4 this! So many sweet Radio Shack memories lol....
Came for free with the ‘37 Ford 😉
Man that takes me back
This was my first CD player LOL I had a special relay that was 4 pole double throw that I used to switch my speakers back and forth between one of these CD players and a Clarion two knober tape deck that was pretty high-end for the time.

I had the optimus cassette deck in my first car. That someone broke into and stole :(
that eq is freaking cool!
Had one of those CD players and a Sherwood head unit. used one of the Shack 160w amps to run subs.
Wow! I haven't saw a disc in years! Now that's old school.
Don’t make me get out the cassette tapes
I had that Pyramid EQ in 91. I think I just liked watching the lights
In high school, we bought so much Radio Shack car audio stuff just to try it out. Most of it sucked which is why we returned most of it. The store manager didn’t like our little posse of car audio buyers/returners. The winter after high school, that same manager was kidnapped after closing up for the day, driven down the freeway, robbed, and then murdered. True story. Big Rapids, MI 1995.
There is nothing else like the sound and feel of an in-dash CD player taking hold of the disc.
DAMN I'm old, I remember when those came out!
I installed one of those in my AE 86 sr5 lift back in 1991. Back when I was going to Devry technical institute.
👌😬👍
Yep, Radio Shack special all day!!!
Love the powered EQ. I had a Jet Sound Laboratories JS-70 and a Pioneer Supertuner cassette deck in my first car, I thought was the sh*t with my Becker 6x9's.
Still have my Sony CDX-80 from 1989. Still works.
👈😲🤙
Nice! Love the Pyramid power booster.
Yeah boi 😬👍
I had Optimus speakers too, they looked like Bookshelf speakers but where for mounting in the rear deck. Now I am going to date myself here, but I will tell you the best back in the day speakers I ever owned were Jensen Mind Blowers 6X9's in my 1968 Ford Torino fast back Fire Engine red with a 390 and 4 speed.

Fang Of Truth ......dope, I not long dug up a old Sherwood 60+60. Member those?
I’m amazed at how mint this Optimus CD player is. There are rumors the mechanism inside is Alpine 🧐
Old pyramid eq nice! Too bad all these good brands were bought out
Amazed it still works!
I miss Radio Shack (and esp the raw electronic components they used to sell in the 80's and 90's)... :'(
Damn that's slick.
I remember these things from my Radio Shack salesman days.
I have an old radio shack / optimus home graphic EQ in storage I plan on putting in my garage just for the light show! LOL
That was my first CD player in high school. Mounted it under dash and had a Targa cassette player. The CD player skipped pretty bad. Upgraded to in-dash Sony CD player a while later.
Skipped like a school girl playing hopscotch 😜
I remember when this came out. Damn I feel old now. I bought my cellphone from the 93-94 catalog. Brickphone for the win.
We are getting old
Holy shit. I haven't seen one of those Sony discs in ages.
Nice. Like the classics. I used to have a Daewoo
What ever happened to those 90s bass music cds like bass from the krypt??

Good old pyramid I remember I had one of those in a VW squareback. 😀 with a kraco head unit and sparkomatic 6x9s. Lol 1984🎉🎉🚗🚗
Had one for a week , than I found a guy selling Alpines out of his trunk at my high school . Yeah the 80’s were different than today . He got away with it and I got somthing better than the Shack for 40 bucks.
Takes me back to when I was 16 and got a Realistic booster/Eq combo. Later, I got a smaller Audiovox one at - wait for it - Service Merchandise. That was BCC. Before Circuit City Era.
I remember Service Merchandise! We would always visit the scratch and dent area looking for deals
I remember those.. but I was young & broke and the best I could do was a CD walkman on a little pillow on the tunnel.floor.. with a headphone to cassette adapter...
Good thing I was holding onto something steady!!!
I had one of these in an 84 chevette payed more for it then the car. Also had it hooked up to a spark o matic 7 band eq booster.
Nice teaser at the end there could you please put out the next video so I'm not waiting to see what happens to your amp!
Optimus and pioneer where good decks. Seen cd player for car in 94. Sony. 400$
Did everyone else get a copy of this that had a Marvel Studio "stay after credit clip" of an Orion amp half ohm dynamic test that left us hanging?
LOL!
Reminds me my alpine with these bass and treble faders
It may have an Alpine mechanism...I’m not sure
Wow I actually remember when radioshack sold those CD players
Yea love it. Radio shock was my radiators jajaja
big d wiz I came across an old school Alpine amp v12 303 two channel and a pair of old school Sony xplod 12s this pass weekend. I passed on the amp because I didn't think it would be enough power for the subs
Very nice.
Nice. I like to see a DRZ-9255 from Clarion.
Those are nice head units
I remember that...i was in the 8th grade and was bummed cause everyone was like tape cassette players are going away and CD players are in but SUPER expensive.
Yeah, I remember the $400 “budget” CD player shootout in CA&E
Wow, now I really feel old because I remember when cassette players were expensive. Couldn't wait to get my hands on one that could play metal tapes, had Dolby C, auto reverse (because having to eject and flip the tape for music on the other side was a pain) and had AMS (auto music search) with the ability to skip several songs. Hey, only having to wait 20 to 30 secs to skip 3 tracks was cutting edge back in the day. Also, compared to 8 track tapes that you could only "play" or "fast forward", - being able "rewind" on a cassette was amazing! 🤯😂😂
300w pyramid booster eq ? I'd like to see that on the dyno...
Lol! I had forgotten about the old optimus.
Put that pyramid on that dyno 300watts yeah..had audiovox eq under tha dash realistic speakers in the dash and home speakers in the back from the home stereo. Then go some Jensen 6x9s rockin old school mix tapes..ahaha
I second that, Pyramid booster on the dyno! Do it Big D!
I had one of those!
I sold it to a pawn shop after I realized it was putting 3 little jagged scratches on my CD’s!
Then I got a Sony that I had till it was stolen out of my sister’s XTerra.
👈😲
You should do a dyno run with the speaker outputs of a headunit.
I still have a Denon pull-out cd player....PULL OUT. The gauntlet has been thrown down!

Shit Big D I’d rock that in my new BMW M5!!!!
I remember back in 1989 one of my friends had a Yamaha CD player that was the cartridge style.
Vincent Bowling wow I forgot all about those.
Many of the earliest CD players in cars used cartridges. Good for protecting the CD’s
Yeah they were pretty cool back in the day...he had two Yamaha amps as well, I forget the model number for the mids and highs but the sub amp was a YPA-1000 on two 15s in a Geo Storm.
CD player only , or am/ fm too ? Thank You Big D. 💯👍👍
This one is CD only
@@wal Thank You.
Bahaha cool, haven't heard that name since radio shack 90ish
