Actually, I love car audio, and I have a very nice system. But, building a
system that puts out 99% bass is not a hobby. It's a mistake. And, I'm a
bass player, so if anyone would want to hear lots of bass, it's me. But,
bass players have taste.
Doug, you say that you love car audio, but it sounds to me like what you
love is "Doug Kanter's Definition of Car Audio". Don't worry, this is a
common affliction on RAC that many of us tend to catch. I certainly had
this attitude when I competed in IASCA in the early to mid 90's. But if
you TRULY love this hobby, what you will eventually realize is that there is
no "right" way to enjoy car audio. It really boils down to what YOU like,
not what IASCA likes, not what Stereophile likes, etc.

As for me, I happen to want the best of both worlds. I love that my system
has pinpoint imaging, a broad and deep soundstage, smooth frequency
response, and punchy dynamics. BUT, I can also boom with the best of them
when I want. The point is, IMHO, this group should be about "whatever
floats your boat" when it comes to car audio.

If someone enjoys their system a certain way, then THAT SYSTEM IS SET
CORRECTLY FOR THAT PERSON!
