Hi.

I have a problem for which I am sure someone will have a good answer.

I just bought a new car (VW GTI), and I'd like to put in a stereo/cassette.  
I live in a high crime area so I want no visible indications of my stereo.

My idea is to install 4 speakers and a power amp in the car, 
the amp would be under the dash.  The music signal would come 
from a high-quality walkman type portable cassette deck.
I would be plugging the walkman into the power amp.

----------------------
Now for the questions:  
	
	  Will this work?
	
	  What kind of spec's will the walkman need on 
	  output so the power amp gets a good signal?

	  Will I be getting lots of noise (bad signal/noise ratio)?
----------------------

Anyone who can give advice or point me to people who can give advice 
about this should contact me by *mail*.

Also, if anyone can recommend any good stereo shops (BAY AREA) 
where the sales people really know the equipment please send them.

NOTE:  Limit stereo shop recommendations to San Francisco Bay Area.

If things get interesting, I will post a summary to the net.


Thank You,

Charlie Tierney
