The rear speakers are a worthwhile mod, but provide mostly sorely needed fill-in.
BTW, I have a $3k+ system in my Esprit and it's great, also, I was once into it big time and had an accoustically altered listening room with all very high-end gear ($25k-$30k worth), so I do have a bit of experience...
Happy Motoring!... Jim'99

Jim, I'm sure you agree with me when I say the price of the equipment used doesn't mean anything....
I have to say that it IS possible to make a convertible sound great. In fact I would put my cars stereo up against any hardtop.
