Because your car should sound good too

Nice FYI piece here. Maybe one of you might just attempt this. And if you didn't know, now you do.

First is a Tube Pre-Amp. Yes, for cars. It's called - Critical Mass Tube Pre-Amp (P2-GTX)
Seems to be a pretty good piece.

Next is their high-end four channel amp. It's called -
Critical Mass JL UL-A4x350 (Class A Amplifier)

That last one retails at $11k. So, neeedless to say I won't be auditioning it anytime soon. Anyone else care to do the dirty work and tell me what I'm missing?

Has anyone heard the McIntosh car audio gear? Looks very interesting.

Probably, Unsound.

While I get why people want good music in their car- who doesn't? - I think there's a limit. Can you 'critically listen' while driving? For that matter, should you be?

My Alpine deck and factory speakers sound good enough for me. If I had a car that I knew I would keep forever or close to it, I'd seriously look into a McIntosh system. It would probably look great in my father's '71 Mercedes 280 SL convertable. Hanging out on July 4th and watching fireworks with the top down and a Mac system playing would be pretty cool IMO.
