As a music lover, I've never understood putting a crappy or amazing sound system in a car.
Well, I can see where you're coming from. I'll speak for myself, then. I commute to work (downtown Toronto) 5-6 days a week, every week. Coming from the West End (suburbs), it can be quite some time spent. Not to mention any road-trips and personal driving, that's a lot of time spent in my car. Having a nice sound system to really enjoy my music means a lot to me. A vehicle's cabin can be an outstanding amphitheatre to enjoy sonic bliss. So, for me, having a nice sound system (I didn't spend
too much, mind you, but enough) is definitely worth it. I'll never own a vehicle with stock-sound again.
