RE: I just spoke to a car audio buff here at the office...

From my experiences with those directly involved in "competition" car audio, sound quality was not a concern..... Just sheer volume in dB........

The people I knew had lost most of their hearing in their 20s.

The few times I was in a vehicle with "competition audio", when it was played at levels where hearing protection wasn't required, the sonics weren't exactly stellar. This is in spite of a lot of accessories that are common to "high-end" tweaks like special fuses and wiring.
