What do audiophiles do in their cars?

Leer at women much too young and good looking for them while remaining passively dissatisfied with the disappointing melange of muddy frequencies served up daily by their car audio system.

I have a tragically mediocre UConnect/Beats Premium stereo in my Jeep. The only thing I could say for it is, occasionally, I forget how disappointing it is on a good song at high volume.

We had an ’18 Nissan Pathfinder a couple years ago with a premium Bose system in it. It never sounded particularly good if you were listening to the radio or CD. Volume wise you really couldn’t get satisfactory punch or crank on, but on a long road trip I plugged my iPod in to listen to some albums and it sounded absolutely terrific. In fact, the iPod is the best sounding input in my current Jeep as well. Better clarity, more punch. It’s all mostly lossless stuff, well as lossless as an iPod will let you have, but the point is, if I’m plugging an outboard device with a 3.5 audio cable coming out of a headphone jack and it sounds better than anything else is going on on the head unit, most likely that head unit really sucks, which would come as no surprise to any of the posters here.

In my 96 911 993 Turbo l have a $8k system
and that still doesn't complete with that glorious sound of that flat six l'm also restoring a 1973 2002tii that's a bit of a resto mod and I'm tlhinking of installing the Pioneer head unit (single din)that has the flip out screen and will give me Bluetooth phone and Andriod Auto

In the tradition of my ancestors, always answer a question with a question....
