Do you put as much effort into your Car Audio?


I spend a lot of money on my car audio system since I'm in in my vehicle as much or more than I'm in my home. Just wondering if anyone else does. I can't stand listening to most stock systems. Let me know what you have.

Hah mine was older model 1987 that I actually put an effort to have pioneer speakers and blaupunkt electronics. The stock stereo was really bad and I needed something descent at least. When I spotted broken window and radio simply jerked out by silly one who had no idea how to use tools to remove it properly, I thought of grabbing a crobar, but instead dialed 911 on the way to car service office near 3am. Car service offices were the only place to try to sell car stereos at night quick after 'job done'.
A well-tuned Mercedes turbodiesel engine at highway speed is all I really want to hear out of my car. Just as well since the speaker wiring in my '84 300CD is original. Not even a modern head unit and new speakers have done much good for anything other than talk radio and Bluetooth phone calls.
No. I had a real nice system stolen from my car (they were nice enough to unscrew everything and not leave a mess). A week later there were nose and handprints on the side window from whoever stole it looking to see if had my insurance take care of it. It's not worth it unless it comes with the car.

As Timrhu stated, I listen primarily to talk radio.

All the best,

In the 80s I had a nice Nakamichi tape deck
Best sound ever in my car

I made tapes from my 3 head nak at home
It sounded better than my current aftermarket Pioneer audio/dvd/nav/rear camera system in a vw tiguan
An older alpine cd player sounds better too

I use ipods in the glove box, surius, jl audio 4.1 separate amps w a 13" sub that I knob adjust to sound musical yet dynamic in the bass
The car has been insulated throughout

Any head units i should look into? Great cd and ipod sound and interface
