I went to te website. And if you get the right package it comes with 13 speakers and a subwoofer. Sounds good  :laugh:

Doesn't matter if you have a hundred speakers. If they aren't hooked up right and set up the right way, it's a piece of trash.

Just like a quad cpu system running Windows XP Home.

And im just figuring if you spend 100G plus on a car, it should have an above avarge. I dont mean something like 1000W 15" sub. I just wanted to know if it had descent lows.

How would it compare to the Escalades sound system?

Well, putting in that 15" sub wouldn't be a good idea either. Not everyone who buys a car at this level wants to buy a car with a lot of bass, but then again, people want something clear as well. That's why I believe Lexus has the best approach. They have Mark Levinson engineers work their brains out trying to design the system around the car, rather than just throwing in a few tweeters here, some 6x9's there, and add two 8 inch subs to call it a day.

I'll be honest, I haven't heard a stock Escalade sound system. :)

It use Bose though doens't it? That'll kinda give you an idea of how good (... bad) it is.

WHAT? Link? :blink:

I love all of Bangle's designs. The E60 and E87 are the best looking cars ever.

My fathers escalade has a killer sound system. It is just the one from bose. But with the bass cranked it sounds amazing.

Add me to the Bangle hater list.

I too once loved BMW's designs, but now all I can look at are the numbers.. If I block out all the thoughts of the horrendous designs I can see that marvelous BMW.

That engine.. the performance.. the steering feel.. ohhh BMW please complete the image.. you have so much potential.

I'm sure it's great, but just the fact that it's Bose limits the expectations I have for it. :(

Speaking of which, I'm going to the dealer tomorrow to check out the ESV. We need a people hauler.

Athlonix: Link for the news source? I heard his son had commited suicide or something along those lines.

Bring a bassy cd, and crank the bass when you test the ESV out, you will be suprised.

I did, I took some D&B stuff and some heavy metal. It wasn't as good as what I was looking for, but it was better then the Bose in Mercedes and Infiniti.

I can't wait for Lexus to resdesign their LX. The Infiniti QX56 has a ****-poor audio system as well.

why do some ppl call the BMW cars e60, e46 etc? i know the e60 is the 5 series, and the  e46 is the 3 series, but whats with their names? im sure there is some siginifcance but i cant figure it out

585866863[/snapback]

Chassis codes.

For Mercedes it's similair such as W211, W220, R230 etc.,

I think the other guys have them as well, like Lexus has UCF11 IIRC and stuff. I know BMW and Mercedes well, but the others I don't.

      This is weird. Mythos is more unrestricted compared to Fable. Technically it poses more risk!!

      This is a great thing, I always have issues with Verizon while inside of certain football stadiums due to the saturation and walls blocking signal so a LOS way to connect would be great. Verizon was supposed to be offering sat data this year but I've not heard a word of it lately. Dude is sending rockets into space in a cheap manner, low waste foot print and has a great product with solar/battery tech. We would be so far behind China right now if not for him and a push to get back into space.

      illegally? Proof of that? Seems you are posting misinformation or well a pure straight up lie cause there is zero proof of such a thing. But I get it...
