Car Audio Upgrade - is it worth it?

Is the upgrade of your car's car audio worth it?

I've heard dozens of SQ car audios but it still couldn't match the good old boxed speakers & receiver/amps at home.

para sakin oo. kasi most of the time you're stuck in traffic. konswelo ko nalang sa sarili ko na masarap pakinggan yung music galing sa setup ko :D

Yup, it is worth it...

Pero it depends na rin in how strong your inclination to music is.

I used to play in a band kasi kaya gusto ko lagi maganda ang napapakinggan ko. I always love to hear good music, both melody and instrumentation.

depende sayo kung hilig mo talaga...pero kung wala lang at gusto mo lang gumastos...id say na stick with your stock set up nalang...

kahit panalo pa ang audio setups at home it still pays to upgrade the stock audio ng car lalo na if you use ur car a lot and long driving and traffic tuwing malakas na ulan

depends on what you're starting with...i would always upgrade systems on economy cars (at the very least those cheap paper cones that they use on the speakers), but some stock systems (higher-end nissan = bose, lexus = mark levinson/nakamichi, bmw = harman kardon) are really good even if you don't spend another peso on them.

many people i see upgrade their systems mainly to make their car boom and attract attention from other people...most stock systems don't put out enough power or LFE to achieve this.

also, you are right in saying that a modest home audio setup will sound even better than the expensive car systems - it's because the car is a poor soundstage to begin with, and only becomes worse when you start rolling and get road and engine noises...
