I think if you put an EP600 in the back of a van...the cars next to you would vibrate.

Ok, fine, any car in the near viscinity.
And, I have another axiom rant. They make my earphones that I invested some money in sound like crap. Stupid axiom. :P

Get some better earphones. My headphones (Sennheiser HD580) still sound quite good, though I do find the bass a little lacking since adding the PB10 to my speaker rig.

I don't know how much car audio gear I've lost to break-ins. It just isn't worth it to me anymore. As much as I would love to install a better system (and a speaker upgrade alone are all it would take to get better sound in most vehicles - though it was never enough for me) it is not worth the hassle.
I figure that I will, at some point, buy a pair of Etymotics ear phones and a decent MP3 player (or even my minidisc player). Talking to one of my friends who is an officer, he said that in our area, they allow the use of one earphone (typical of a hands-free cell phones) but two is not allowed.
The way I reason it is that if I had a decent stereo, I wouldn't hear anything else anyway. .

Oh man.
So, ok. BEFORE I had my axioms, I probably had the best sound system around all of college, 5.1 Klipsch Promedia's for computer. Everyone would watch a movie and be like...wow! And whatever. So, when I got my axioms, I listened to them at home, then brought them to college, and didn't even care to listen to my klipsch's and simply just plopped my axiom's in place.
So, here I am, on break, and brought my Klipsch's home. I set them up on this computer to listen to music to replace some really crappy computer speakers. And guess what thought went through my mind...."These speakers....suck"
Everything sounds higher, but with a very low rumbling part to them. Absolutely no midrange and no highs. I miss my axiom's.
Axiom has ruined my music-listening life. Oh brother.

Heh Heh! I have the Klipsch ProMedia 4.1 for my computer. I think they are excellent computer speakers. But, nonetheless, I stil run my Pandora listening through my main system. Excellent computer speakers will NOT compare with excellent speakers.

Yea, my dad wants to use the klipsch speakers for the TV room. It's going to take a few adapters to get it all connected to the DVD player.
