the only microstar i know of are microstar internatitonal who are taiwanese computer hardware and contract component builders.

they will pretty much build anything to someone else's design, hifi pda,s laptops, but only sell mainboards branded as microstar or msi.

www.msi.com.tw

think they have a listing of companies who brand their goods under other names on the site.

Question

Just done a web search but cannot find anything for Microstar car audio - just computer components. Are you sure it's not Roadstar? If it's Roadstar then, blimey, I haven't heard of them for about 5 or 6 years. Very cheap make. Wouldn't touch them .... even with someone else's bargepole!
