How annoying for other folk.

You're a musician, you should appreciate loud music. I
once had 6kW of music in a Honda CRV. I couldn't see out
of the back window when on full blast, everything went
blurry.

How was it powered?
6KW from a 12v battery is 500amps and that does not include
losses. A typical car battery is 50-100 amp hours.

Unless you're playing a pure sine wave, it's not 6kW
continuously. I had an extra three 113Ah batteries in the back
anyway to
run a fridge for camping. It had a high powered alternator fitted.

It had a couple of farad capacitors in the back and a very
beefy cable running from the batteries.

How sad.

What's wrong with doing something properly? What do you
listen to music on? A Roberts radio?

IPhone or IPod.

Hardly powerful enough to give the full range of frequencies.

The Gadget Show put some Audio Snobs in an auditorium with good
acoustics. They listened, blindfold, to the same song played on a
record, CD and Ipod. The Ipod won.

Without an extra amp attached to it?

And "ipod" has nothing to do with it, it's just an mp3 player. The
bitrate the mp3 was recorded at is important though. 128kbps, and
even 160kbps, can sound like they're underwater. I prefer at least
192. And by the way, my car stereo played mp3s.

Usually audiobooks rather than music.

Two completely different things, we're discussing listening to
music.
At Uni I shared a house with someone like you.
He didn't listen to music so much as listen to his hi-fi.
He would buy Jean-Michel Jarre CD's and listen to the, hiss
free, silence between tracks.

Er what?

The only vague connection I can think of is you're implying your
friend liked to show off the quality of his equipment.

Exactly, just like you.

I prefer to show off the volume.


Thank you for proving my point.


Don't you ever show anything off?


What have you got to show off Hucker?
We would like to know.
