Im sure most of you have after market sound systems? what exactly do you need to buy... i have speakers, 2 amps, and a kicker.... is there anything else? and how does it work with the i control? does anyone know of any good places to get this installed? im just worried that installing this stuff might mess with the computer...

clueless,
kc

search the mod section-if you are really into sound there was some techy gadget that came out that was apparently really cool.

If you just want good sound-not sure if you have logic seven or not but I do not and to get pretty good sound I talked to a few pretty good sound shops and they said you could get away with amps and woofers and leave the stock speakers which are not that bad-of course if you want show sound or your used to top notch sound you will disagree but just with better amps pushing your speakers and a couple 10s in the back will give you pretty good sound. but since you have speakers already I guess this isnot helpful

Also have you ever heard how it sounds outside car? You will be embarrased the way it sounds on outside when you play something inside the car.

If you increase the power it might me even worse .. You will be carrying a moving-jukebox
