get some dynamat

 

Yea, DynaMat....

 

My 500 isn't bad. Since I'm usually doing a lot of highway driving with the windows closed, I only deal with inside road-generated noise. If the Stang was my DD I might consider a replacement.

 

Go aftermarket HU and add a sub and the car will come alive with music!!!!!!
Change the door subs too!

 

Dont over think the situation! I pulled the Shaker headunit, replaced it with a Pioneer FH-P8000BT, the improvement is AWESOME! There is nothing wrong with the shaker speakers, and the Pioneer uses them to the full potential! and for around 300 bucks. I now just plug in my Ipod and I can make my ears bleed if I wish...

 

I have the Shaker 500 and its not bad once you change the crap stock paper speakers.

 

You'll regret playing your stereo that loud when you are older.

 

Here is the stock speakers.
You make the call....

 

Yup just as i thought crappy speakers. Thanks for the pics. Im just going to upgrade with a sytem of my own. They should have not named them shaker 500. It gets people excited until they turn it up, at least thats what happened to me. Dissappointment.

 

I agree, the 500 is not a very good system. From what I hear the 1000 is much better. I wish I knew that before I ordered the car. I figured the 500 would be good enough but i find the system in my 2003 Blazer much better. More clear and alot more power.
