What? I'm the idiot! I actually bought an ENTIRE ENTERTAINMENT SYSTEM for this car, and aside form the NAV….turn it down to listen to the exhaust!
Or with air in your hair, who cares?
"elated or deflated" you'll fit right in! Welcome!

Just another reflex action. I had MB Quart speakers in my BMW. In fact, I put them in the dash of the boxster. However, they take ALOT of power to sound good. When it came to putting speakers in the doors, I used Polk Audio.

I've been thinking about buying a new System for my car but with the engine behind my ears and all the noise that comes with the roof down I think it's going to be very hard for me to find something satisfactory.

Stereo vs. Exhaust
First post, very happy to be here! This forum is fantastic. Anyway, I recently purchased a 2000 Boxster S(stock) and it came with the upgraded Hi-Fi system. While I do like listening to music in clarity(this current system defies that clarity), I have decided that rockin' the revs will be more enjoyable. That's why instead of sinking $1k-1.5k into a good system, I will be sinking $700(including install) into a 2ndary cat bypass and tuning in to what I think will be listened to more often. I am new to this forum, the car, and performance/sound modifications... so any wisdom/constructive criticism is welcome.

Welcome! Good to have you on board. 2000 'S'...nice choice  . The first thing you have to do is go to Show and Tell and post pics then you are officially part of the family.
