Does anyone pay the same attention to their car audio?


How many go for the premium audio offered by car companies (& put up with the compromises imposed by all that DSP) & how many go to the trouble of installing their own instead? Or do most throw up their hands & reserve quality listening for home?

Battery power, nearfield listening, crossover-less speakers, data buffering, pneumatic vibration isolation. Nothing wrong with them apples. 🍎 🍎 🍎
Both of my primary vehicles have 'nice' OEM systems in them (09 Infiniti G37S Coupe, 2015 Nissan Titan Pro4X). They sound good to me for the environment they are in.

I listen to music pretty much all the time that I'm driving.

Having said that, I have never been in _any_ vehicle, no matter how luxurious or how good the stereo system was, that road, wind and engine noise weren't the primary feature of the sonic environment. With that being the case, I'd never spend extra money trying to create an 'audiophile' environment in a vehicle. Its just a different sort of listening experience.
I just have to say it, and I have no affiliation with this company. I have had XM Radio for fifteen years, and I wouldn't be without it. For what they charge, it's a huge bargain! Try it for a few months and I'm sure you'll agree. Lots of channel choices.
