A sure indication the Evo owners are far more discerning than

I welcome you to Crackerbox Palace.


The old Evo’s interior was cheaper than a one-star Romanian hotel.
The new
Lancer’s interior is a bit more upmarket, but it’s still a
third-rate
romance, low rent [Buick] rendezvous.


Actually the all leather interior and superb sound system is very
very
good


What on Earth is the point of a good sound system in a car that
doesn't have any sound insulation?


You cannot hear the music anyway!!!


Donal, Ozzy's quite right. The sound system is pretty amazing and the
navigation interface is beyond what comes with the DB9. There is less
sound insulation in a Evo X, but not for a reason you'd understand or
appreciate. But there's still plenty of insulation to enjoy the 650
watt system with powered sub and 9 speakers. Rockford Fosgate designed
it to quell aftermarket desire. It does.


Bob,

You don't seem to understand the difference between
650W "peak music power" and "5W RMS".

HINT-- There isn't much difference!

If you used 650W of real power inside an Evo, then you would
be rendered profoundly deaf.

Regards

Donal

Donal, do some math. There are a total of 10 speakers. The sub will be
the most demanding. Typically car based amps have little to no
headroom, so a rating of 650, while better than most, is still very
high.

Ut'oh, now we are going to be subjected to an argument on the theory of
audio power measurement, something even most engineers can't get right.
Suffice it to say, please, that most car sound systems are loud enough to
rock and roll the dead in any cemetery within 3 miles of the road, and are
annoying as hell to all but the crack smoking cretins roaring by in their
tricked out and tuned, over-priced sheet metal, motorized pieces of ****.
