[QUOTE="Ruger, post: 1568332, member: 1594"] Nobody's going to like this, most especially the guys in the business. (Hi Noah, how ya doin'?) A vehicle is an inherently poor listening environment. What's the most common mod that Raptor owners do? Exhaust. And what's the nearly inevitable result of installing an aftermarket exhaust system? Increased noise from the exhaust. That exhaust note, pleasing as it may be to a Raptor owner, competes with Fleetwood Mac, Def Leopard, and Chopin for the attention of your auditory nerves. A vehicle in motion is necessarily worse. Now you have road noise transmitted through the hard parts of you vehicle along with wind noise in addition to exhaust noise. Now your auditory nerves have a real problem! Yes, you can take the interior of your truck all apart and install sound deadening materials of various descriptions and capabilities, but I submit that most people don't do that. Noah can do it while sleeping off a hangover, but he has unique skills. Bottom line: Unless you spend a lot of time on the road in your truck or are a music perfectionist, your vehicle is not a good place to make music quality investments unless you go all out with the sound deadening/suppressing materials. Sorry, but that's the physics of it. [/QUOTE]
