It's all a matter of what you like. (i.e.. 4x4 vs 4x2, RC vs CC). I've spent
over $1500 on systems, and have just now finding something I like. "Prissy and
anal" I think someone called me, but I like to hear everything there is to the
music. And when I'm in a bad mood, I CRANK the radio and keep myself from
redlining my Dak into every shift. And spending $1500 on a stereo that can be
heard 3 miles away is a lot cooler than a collector's postage stamp :)
No flames, just a point of view :) Merry Christmas everybody!
