Highway or a congested city road…driving can be fun if your car is equipped with the right stereo.
Buying the right stereo…Whew! A real food for thought since most of us spend considerable
time travelling.
Ok ….sooo…which one to go for…??
Branded or an expensive one need not necessarily be the right choice instead buying form a grey market sometimes serves the purpose of good car stereo (none-the-less it comes with no warranty leave alone an anti-theft insurance!)
not to forget the locally assembled stereos that are also good.
Make sure whatever you buy listen to it while driving and then make a decision.
For the best demo check your friend’s car system…
Be very particular about the speakers than the head unit. If planning to shrimp and cut down on the system cost but still want a decent sounding system go for a pair of original brand speaker!
Going for flashy displays or illumination may not be a very good idea especially if you are colour blind. Blaupunkt does a pretty decent job at this. If you are not the gaudy types avoid Pioneer.
Also test the car stereos by sitting in the front seat. At the rear seat all systems sound good.
If you are not confident about the quality of the package mix ‘n’ match can be a neat idea…whatever you do make sure the speakers are branded.
For good branded speakers I suggest you go in for Blaupunkt they do a fine job!
…and the last word of caution ….if you are really passionate about your system beware those thieves!!
