Strangely enough, I seriously considered after the first theft just installing a set of RCAs on the dash that would feed an amp to the speakers from a discman/portable MP3 player... realized that that would leave me without a few controls... plus gain staging would be all messed up adjusting "line" voltage through the headphone out for volume.

MDrew - I don't think for a second it's impossible to get good sound in a vehicle... but since I spend 0-30 mins in it a day and 14 hours in front of my computer, it's money best spent elsewhere... elsewhere less stealable.
