I think almost all stock sound systems on all cars are mediocre at best. If you want really good sound don't ever expect it from a stock system.

Yeah, Bose needs to stick with home audio, the Maxima Bose system was good for a stock system 10 years ago but by todays standards you could get a system for about half the price that will put it to shame.

First you're a fish aquarium expert, a wine aficionado, and drag king (and queen). Now you're a car audiophile.

You truly are a jack[***] of all trades, as they say.

I agree on that. The boss on my old Infiniti J30 is better than my rx8's. I guess they used cheaper speakers?

I agree, the Bose system isn't bad for what it is. It's better than the standard system that comes in cars... though I would add subs for more thumps to the musics. Perhaps it's the way the car is design that makes the G35's accoustics sound better? Anyone with speaker specs?

My stock monsoon system in my passat sounded better than the bose in my 8. It gets the job done though. An amp and sub wouldn't hurt though.
