[QUOTE=Blaster;27090270]I understand you get what you pay for. I don't think you understand that not everybody needs the highest quality radio components in their car. If dude wants to spend $250 it'll sure sound better than leaving the stock stuff in, if and only if the stock ones were utter pieces of shit like mine.[/QUOTE] I was just going by the fact that he wanted subs, but yeah that`s true And yeah, I know many people will prefer to upgrade their exhaust or whatever over a soundsystem, I just don`t think an expensive soundsystem is at all a waste of money (which is why there is 2 pages of arguing)
He said bump for rock. A nice component set up front and coaxial set in the back will sound pretty decent. Unless he really wants to bump as in rattle his car to bits with bass. Then a single 12 should do him good.
[QUOTE=edberg;27090292]also vq your question sucks what about some people(me) who are stuck in the middle not willing to drop big bucks on an amped system but willing to get a nice component setup to be run off deck power [editline]31st December 2010[/editline] tl;dr do what you want and stop bitching[/QUOTE] well if you`re not willing to drop big bucks but still want a soundsystem, then don`t you a think a nice soundsystem is not a waste of money? I'm not bitching, I'm just not gonna sit here and stare at the screen while people with opinions other than mine say that my opinion sucks because theirs is better the only reason I made the question is just to see what everyone here really thinks
[QUOTE=VQ35HR;27090318]And yeah, I know many people will prefer to upgrade their exhaust or whatever over a soundsystem, I just don`t think an expensive soundsystem is at all a waste of money, and neither is a cheap soundsystem to replace rotting oem equipment[/QUOTE] fixed
What bugged me was that somebody said investing $250 into a stereo is a waste. Sometimes even just a headunit by itself with stock speakers is a night and day difference. I would use Ed's car as an example but he bought the car with aftermarket speakers, so I dunno.
[QUOTE=VQ35HR;27090363]well if you`re not willing to drop big bucks but still want a soundsystem, then don`t you a think a nice soundsystem is not a waste of money?[/QUOTE] no well i mean to me it is because I'm perfectly content with deck power but you are obviously a bigger audiophile then I am
My friend installed some $30 speakers on his 98 Corolla running off the stock headunit, I guess they "bump" if they rattle his door panels and trunk :v:
[QUOTE=edberg;27090414]no well i mean to me it is because I'm perfectly content with deck power but you are obviously a bigger audiophile then I am[/QUOTE] quality soundsystem has a broad range of definitions really, to you it could be your current set up right now, the question was more of seeing if you think soundsystems are useless or not [editline]31st December 2010[/editline] [QUOTE=Blaster;27090396]What bugged me was that somebody said investing $250 into a stereo is a waste.

I would use Ed's car as an example but he bought the car with aftermarket speakers, so I dunno.[/QUOTE] when I said it was a waste I meant that a whole soundsystem worth $250 would be a waste, if you just got a hu for $250 or 4 speakers that would be fine [editline]31st December 2010[/editline] anyway, whatever, here are cars drifting [IMG]http://i52.tinypic.com/sc7uv7.jpg[/IMG]
[QUOTE=VQ35HR;27090489] when I said it was a waste I meant that a whole soundsystem worth $250 would be a waste, if you just got a hu for $250 or 4 speakers that would be fine[/QUOTE] To some that's a system lol
[QUOTE=VQ35HR;27090224][B]if you think a quality soundsystem is a worthwhile investment, rate agree If you think it`s stupid, rate disagree [/B][/QUOTE] worthwhile overall if you like your music on the road yes, i just wouldn't get one personally unless mine is really shit its like every time you post an argument erupts, you should like stop posting if you're gonna be a dick no offense dude
i think his questions are just so broad that everyone gets confused and starts arguing cars are stupid [editline]31st December 2010[/editline] yeah but only certain cars [editline]31st December 2010[/editline] etc [editline]31st December 2010[/editline] also should this be my avatar or should I crop it a different way [img]http://i52.tinypic.com/9urerc.png[/img]
[QUOTE=Dysplasia;27090587]worthwhile overall if you like your music on the road yes, i just wouldn't get one personally unless mine is really shit its like every time you post an argument erupts, you should like stop posting if you're gonna be a dick no offense dude[/QUOTE] no dude it's just that lots of people disagree with me I just said that soundsystems are wortwhile 3 people said they're useless I got mad lol

how? you do it lol [url]http://dl.dropbox.com/u/3702776/Public%20Pic%20Dump/edberg.png[/url]
[QUOTE=VQ35HR;27089880]If you get in an accident, yes. Way more likely than a newer car.[/QUOTE] Justin's or Ford's truck would turn any small car into a pile of scrap metal in the event of a collision.

[QUOTE=VQ35HR;27090983][img_thumb]http://i52.tinypic.com/fdu93t.png[/img_thumb] idk [editline]31st December 2010[/editline] yes but what if they hit a wall[/QUOTE] I have plow rigging on the front of my truck designed to stop my truck in its tracks at about 15 mph without damaging the truck There may not be a wall left when I am done.
[IMG]http://i38.photobucket.com/albums/e144/blaster17363/edberg.png[/IMG] Done.
[QUOTE=VQ35HR;27090983]yes but what if they hit a wall[/QUOTE] Which probably makes up a whole .2 percent of all accidents?
[QUOTE=mpntball2012;27091142]Which probably makes up a whole .2 percent of all accidents?[/QUOTE] so you're really okay with knowing that their car will turn any other into 'a pile of scrap' at any collission?
if i had the opportunity to do so with my car I would too [editline]31st December 2010[/editline] wagon bullbar
Good way of putting it but they're safe aren't they? Either way one car is going to win the fight whether it be two family sedans or two large pickup trucks in an accident.
[QUOTE=VQ35HR;27091341]so you're really okay with knowing that their car will turn any other into 'a pile of scrap' at any collission?[/QUOTE] Are you really okay knowing that a 15 ton diesel/bigrig will turn any other car into LESS than a pile of scrap at any collision? Not trying to spring up any more arguments here, but even if my '10 bumpers' are unsafe to whomever i may hit, my fault or not, I'm not nearly as dangerous as some of the other vehicles that are allowed to drive next to you, am i? [editline]31st December 2010[/editline] And not as big, eather.

maybe he transports smaller goods that's kind of the purpose of trucks is it not
[QUOTE=Dysplasia;27092317]maybe he transports smaller goods that's kind of the purpose of trucks is it not[/QUOTE] you`d think so, but 90% of the people that own one only use it for things that a car can do anyways this is evolving into like 4000 differenent arguments
we should all just drive beige smartcars
[QUOTE=VQ35HR;27092452]you`d think so, but 90% of the people that own one only use it for things that a car can do anyways this is evolving into like 4000 differenent arguments[/QUOTE] I use my truck the way it's meant to be. Can't really afford to drive it just for fun any more.
