This is a valid question. It is "General Mustang Discussions". I don't care much about sound systems, but some do.... no need to be an ******* and flame people. Either add a helpful comment, or don't respond. </P>

I agree karma as far as the flaming people part.Not to mention this is in the "GENERAL MUSTANG DISCUSSIONS" not general performance discussions.</P>


Agai i must stress atleast this is a valid question that in some way relates to our mustangs and not some *** or haters bull s**t posts!I say as long as its not a troll posting dumb s**t that any MUSTANG RELATED question is a good question.</P>

The thing I don't understand is you guys spend all this money on kickass stereo equipment so you have some insanely loud system in your car that makes your ears bleed when you crank it up. Do you guys give a damn about being able to hear for very long? I've heard some stereos in cars sitting at a red light or whatever andthe basshurts my ears, and they're several cars away! f*** that man, that's just dumb and obnoxious. I value my hearing. I say for a good stock investment, Miracle Ear is the way to go for the future. <IMG src=smileys/smiley2.gif border="0">

I agree... Leave that trunk shaking crap in the projects. I've got a good sounding "factory replacement" system in my car. JVC CD player, Infinity 3 1/2's in the dash and 5x7's in the rear. No need for amps and all that crap. Let the ricers have that stuff for the NOPI's.

I like a good sounding system with some "thump". But there's a limit to how much is too much.

Here´s my view about having a fast mustang and having a loud sound system.</P>


When you have mean muscle mustang with losts of torque and HP, that doesnt mean that you are always flooring your pedal. That every time you are waiting for the light to change you have do burn your tires. The idea is to have a reliable car that you can count with. That means that it will respond when you really need the power, in other words you want a car that can PERFORM.</P>


So, if my sound system sounds great, and looks great, is because I like it to PERFORM when I need it. When you just burn a new cd, or when that song you like is on the radio. Everything pays off.</P>


See, that doesnt mean that I hurting my ears everytime I turn on my system.</P>

I have a new Pioneer Premier 650 deck, Clarion 6x9's in the back, and hopefuly today im getting some new front speakers, dont know what kind. Audiobahn subs are planned for the furture.

I just have a Sony 245watt CDdeck from 1996that is just fine for me... Something fried in it and it doesnt allow my right 5.5 to hit at all, but with another deck in it works just fine.... I have the stock FORD speakers for 1995. Im happy with them, they sound great and I dont listen to it way up. Im more of a blaupunkt fan because of the clearity of the sound. I would rather have a good clean crips song with deffinitive bass, not all bass and no substance to the trebble aspect of the songs. I have the stock FORD amp under my CD player too and a CD changer cable going to the trunk hooked to nothing because the old owner left it in there.</P>


Eventually I want the 2004 Mach1000 setup because well, I like the look of it, the low to mid range sound is so sweet, and it has pretty good bass... But its heavy, really heavy.... My car is 3077 right now, it will be about 3200 if i install the Mach1000, and I dont know if I am willing to add that much weight.... But then again I really like the Mach1000 <IMG src=smileys/smiley7.gif border="0">My first experiance with the Mach1000 was in a 2004GT Hardtop that just made my mouth water because I wanted it so much.... I sat in that car a good while listening to it, playing with the gears and looking at the interior while the sales Rep just sat and smiled with $$ in his eyes.... He then pointed out to my car "HEY WANT TO TRADE THAT IN?!" man they were hard up for my car, but I said no. They wanted to give me $6k Trade in Value for it. Its only a fully loaded Manual 5spd 1995 Mustang 3.8 with cool options and factory modsx_x</P>


But that wasnt what I wanted, there were two cars in there I had a hard on for... The 2003 SVT Cobra and the 2004 Mach1. The Cobra had much more refined seats which sucked *** because they were poking my ribs, but the Mach1 seats were perfect and hugged me as I sat in it and went through the gears. The SVT pedels suck *** for grip, it was a rainy day and my feet kept slipping off the pedels. If it came down to it I would want the SVT Cobra and put Mach1 seats in it <IMG src=smileys/smiley2.gif border="0">The Mach1 is 305hp and the SVT is 395hp</P>


Welp thats my speel about my audio system and what i want. Audio is great, but for me, not at the expense ofweight ifpower is hard to come by.</P>

I have the loud beating system for one reason I LIKE IT.Even with all the s**t ive done to my car i rarely unless its worth it get on it.I like loud beating systems its just my thing.I think it compliments any bad *** car.As far as the trunk rattling mine rattles a very small amount and with it up and really going you can not even hear it.Ive taken a great deal of time to prevent the dreaded ghetto sled syndrome that comes along with beating systems.</P>


I also am not going for just straight SPL either.My system is set up to be as loud as possible and yet clean and understandable.Theres NO distortion in any of the 13speakers in my car.It still has the ability when i go to contests to get down and really thump low.But i listen to METAL so its rare you here anything but METAL coming from my car.</P>


I can say with pride though my s**t is set up right and doing its job and then some just ask the cop that followed the sound from 2 blocks one night and traced my car because of the sound.He said it was clean and clear and he could understand everything playing.Said it wouldnt be his first choice for music but i certainly had a nice setup.I even popped the trunk for him at his request.Yeah i got a ticket but they dropped it so it was worth it.</P>


The beating systems are a matter of taste.I personally think its pointless in a 500 dollar car with 5,000 worth of equipment.But much like hot rodders have been given a bad name by a select few the audio guys as well are taking s**t for their creations.Hell here its a 500 dollar fine now!And the second time they impound your car!Now thats just f***ing trying to dig in your pockets if you ask me!</P>


By the way this is a prime example of why we should vote.Its old pr**ks making these laws and we are suffering for it.</P><edited><editID>TheGmKiller331</editID><editDate>38031.1409259259</editDate></edited>
