Answer 1

My two subs look like this, you tell me....http://i81.photobucket.com/albums/j230/sparky3489/sub2.jpg

Answer 2

Pioneer SX 1050 integrated amp, 225 watts per channel @ 4 ohms. 4 custom cabs with Morel 10" woofers & titanium tweeters. I also have a 15" bandpass subwoofer cab with a Kicker speaker, powered by a 350 watt power amp and crossover. I use dvd player for cd's. Sound is absolutely incredible. No car system would ever compare. You want to listen to quality, buy a real sound system for home. It's pretty sad when it comes down to how much junk you can fit in your trunk. My car has the stock radio/cd player/XM, works for me. (When I used the word "you" I wasn't referring to you personally!)

Answer 3

You're broken. I have 8 15's powered by a massive Dayton plate amp. Your mids sound better than mine, I'm quite sure. I only have some Techinics floor standing speakers for the front stage. They're great for the money, but not audiophile quality. Car stereos always sound better, because of the confined space. Have you ever compared a 20hz bass note between your home and car stereo? The vehicle maintains the sound pressure, while it just bleeds through your walls at home. You can't make a home system hit as hard as a car system. I also have 6 Rockford 12's in my car, fed by Alpine power. Anyways, you have a good start, but you can never beat me...ha ha ha ha ha. Just kidding, keep at it.

Just so you know...every brand listed in the previous answer is crap. You're way better off with what you have.

Answer 4

Alright ya'all prepare to be amazed. In my Impala, I have 2 Volfenhag 12 inch subwoofers, dual voice coil pushing 2500w a piece. Up in the back window, I have 2 Volfenhag 10 inch subs to back up those 12's, right next to that I have 4 Volfenhag 6x9" 's. Across the front dash I have 6 tweeters. IN my kick-panels I have 5.25" speakers. IN all doors, there is a custom 6.5" Volfenhag speaker. The radio is a Pioneer flip out with DVD player. In the trunk I have 2 7 inch monitors, and in both headrests I have 7 inch monitors. The sun visors have built in monitors. I have 4 amps, consealed in fiberglass boxes in the trunk. This is all backed up by 24" rims. For those of you who have never heard of Volfenhag, look it up, it is a german brand. I picked up this entire setup at a expo sale.

Answer 5

I can tell you mine is not. I bought my car so I could drive it, not so I could annoy people while waiting at stop lights. I am proud to say my sound system is stock!
