one word: stereotype
man you described me and Jason Dutt so well that i must complement you;
yep, everyone hears me from a mile away; i play my music so loud you can
feel it
what's wrong with listening to good speakers in an MG?
and what is the connection with a good stereo with "thumping"?
i sure as he?? don't know
Email me privately and we'll discuss this further.
"downright horrendous acoustics"; granted any convertible is poor
acoustically, but work and diligence in setting up a stereo is required in
any vehicle

Admittedly, I like my music LOUD. I have worked for professional
musicians and in the theater for years and cannot stand a lousy
stereo. That doesn't mean that everyone feels me coming. It only
means that I can hear every note with some degree of clarity, even
when traveling 60mph. Having a stereo is not limited to bone
crunching bass and ear-bleeding treble. I just like my music clear.
MGs happen to be, what I thought was pretty ideal. Ok, the
convertible aspect doesn't make it ideal, but there are plenty of
good, unobtrusive places to put in speakers. It's like this: I like
hearing the car run as much as I like to hear music. If it doesn't
sound good, then I try to fix it, especially when the noise is paired
with black smoke!
