Subject: New Dak -Audio OK? IP: Logged
Message: Gonna order a new Dak soon. Need to know how good the 'premium' DC sound is for an 03 CC; compared to several hundred dollars worth of aftermarket audio. The decision point is getting the stock 'premium' Infinity audio & keeping it, vs ordering a low-end basic unit and stripping it out right away & then installing a good aftermarket setup. Can do quite a bit of electronics work if I have to. Have had a lot of vehicles in my life, some real good & some real bad. Found that the stock audio on the high-end luxo vehicles is pretty respectable, don't know about the new truck factory audio quality. I listen to a lot of different kinds of music, lots of CDs, lots of FM too, do some long drives, no rap, don't need extreme heavy mega-bass. What would you recommend?

Message: How much is the option for premium sound? If over 500 dollars I wouldn't do it. I have never found a stock stereo that I like. I don't know if this is still a problem, but the factory cd players in my mom's durango and my grandma's ram don't play burned cd's (both late 90's models).
I've just never found a factory system that plays very loud or with much sq. even with premium sound the highs aren't there and the mid-bass only seems to like to play about 3 notes.
But for 500 dollars you can get a cd player, good component set and an amp to power them.

Message: Yeah, that's what I thought. Looks like I'll be getting the el cheapo model & visiting a lot of stereo stores in the next couple of months. Plus, a lot of data industry pros are talking about the end of the line for CDs for most purposes, to be replaced by DVD disks & players. CD technology was never really designed properly from the ground up, and ended up being just a collection of the most ubiquitous & popular kludges.
