Shaker 1000 vs shaker 500??
Is the shaker 1000 sound system really that much better than the shaker 500 system?? I'm looking into buying a GT with all options except it only has the 500 sound system instead of the 1000. I may eventually put subs in anyay...
Thanks for any input.

If you decide to go with a Deluxe to save money, I might sell you the Shaker 500 out of the car I'm getting ready to buy, and we could trade door panels too. I can't find one without any of the Shaker radios that's configured like I want in an '07 model, and I really want the incentives. The dealers can't seem to find one, so I'm stuck with the radio unless I want to order a new '08. Let me know what you think. I'll be able to check back in about 15 minutes...

I would say for the cost no at all...the shaker 1000 is a $1200 add on last i checked and the only difference is the 2 10" subs in the trunk. IMO get the 500 and or just the plain unit and put in all aftermarket speakers and a new HU. You can always add a sub later in the same spot the 1000 subs are suppose to be at. I noticed a huge sound improvement with my Avic-z1 and new 5x7s all around over the shaker 500

For someone who will eventually want more than the 1000, the $1200 can be spent on much better components. For someone who will never want to go aftermarket, the 1000 is probably a decent investment, unless you are happy with the bass in the 500. Id say go sit in a vehicle with each and decide for yourself... most dealerships will let you test drive multiple cars, or at least sit in them and start them up.

I would go with the 500 over the stock stereo just for the door subs, worth it for the sealed door enclosures. I would skip the 1000 because for that much money thier is a lot better aftermarket products you can buy.
