What do audiophiles do in their cars?

“What do audiophiles do in their cars?”

Drive to fedex or UPS to pickup audio components for my home stereo that I ordered :)

I have a $4K Audisson system. But it did not sound good until I stripped out the seats, carpets and all the interior panels and dramatically improved the soundproofing and sound dampening .

Because I listen to music more in the car than at home, it was worth it. But I might not of bothered if the OEM system had not sounded like crap (Mazda CX-5) in the first place.

You can get Dirac for cars. If I was starting over I would use JL Audio stuff (their subs are amazingly good) plus this:

I have a Burmeister (expensive) sound system in my Porsche sports car....the only time it sounds good is in the garage with the engine off.

I just helped my Great Nephew install a system. He spent 600.00 on 5 speakers, 2 amps a 1cf sub box (to custom fit his car) and a roll of dampening mat. He had an Alpine head set. I had all the cabling, armor, fuses and nick nacks here. 4 hours later he was thumpin'. My BACK and HANDS were killing me.. LOL

Good kid. Just entered his apprenticeship to become an Electrician. Turned down a scholarship at UC Davis to become an Electrician. Said he didn't like it there. Loves what he's doing now. 4 generation now out of the same Hall. I'm proud of them all.

Merry Christmas everyone...
