Back in the early 90’s, I had a very high end system in my car, all installed by me. I had 4 Soundstream amps which was one of the best brands at the time, all ADS separate speakers, 4 10 inch subs, an Audio Control 20 band EQ, top of the line Kenwood CD changer, etc. I loved the system until Christmas night, 1991 when my car was stolen out of my driveway. My very expensive car alarm never went off. Car was found 15 days later, all the audio components taken out, tires and rims gone. Car was sitting on 4 milk crates in front of a housing project.
The police put over a dozen parking tickets on the car windshield yet no one checked to see if the car was reported stolen. The thieves even stole my dirty air cleaner element and gas cap. Car was a total loss and I only had liability on the car as it was long paid off. I lost every cent. Got smart and got back into high end audio in the home.
My new SUV has some high end Infinity system in it and I never listen to it. I find music in the car now distracting to me. Oh, the Infinity system isn’t that great either.
