The first link only points out that other car systems suck more, the second one points out that the AS reviewers expected less than I did. What really bothers me about the system is the overemphasis of the lower midbass and the lousy integration of the speakers, i can hear the tweeter going a mile a minute, the center speaker and if nobody sits in the passanger seat the right speaker is also quite annoying. The surround sound in the car is worse than in a home system, esp. considering the goofy mixes people make. So anyway i would have been a lot happier if they spent their resources to create something that sound musical as opposed to "Impressive".I am just happy that the car is very nice and while I am driving the sound becomes just a thing in the backround. I tried to listen critically to the damned thing one day while i was parked and and i gave up on it real quick.
