Shaker Pro Audio System

[Red Dawg]

You don't have it set properly, it sounds awesome. I have owned cars 4 times the price and i can not get over how good this sounds. I use to own a recording studio in NYC and my family is in the music biz and I am huge audiophile. Forget MP3 and Ipod get good CD or high bit rate Flac files and play with your settings, also set to Driver mode not all seats, turn off compression and reduce bass below half way mark. just play around. I just sat and listened to CD for an hour in my driveway and it was great. Experiment and have fun.

Thanks for the tip - I didn't notice an option for compression, though....have to look again

Just FYI, WAV is a lossless format as well. It'll probably be annoying converting them, but at least it's possible to play lossless audio.

I think there is a wma format that is lossless too, and may have smaller file sizes than wav

In the early 90's I spent a lot of time with car audio. I have a CD that was made by Alpine to test sound systems. It is called "Alpine speed of sound". It has 19 tracks that covers every possible range of audio. I cranked the volume up about 3/4 with all three equalizer settings maxed and I think the sound is great in the Shaker Pro. I see no need to change anything on it.

All three equalizer settings maxed? You know that bass/mid/treble settings are RELATIVE, right...? I wouldn't be letting you spend any time near my car audio... :headbonk:

The only point I was trying to make is that the system sounds good enough to me. I didn't leave them maxed but close to it because they really don't offer much either way. I would prefer more control but the system is clearly filtering out frequencies to each type of speaker. For a stock system I believe the average consumer will think it sounds great. This is the first vehicle that I have ever owned where I didn't immediately want to replace everything.
