eXtreme Member 149 Member For: 22y 2m 18d Location: Geelong, Australia Posted 21/05/04 10:14 AM Share Posted 21/05/04 10:14 AM Hey Guys,Our XR has premium sound, and it sounds great on my normal music, when my brother is in the car he likes playing his bass rubbish...but anyway, when he does play it and turns it up a bit, it starts sounding pretty bad, is everyone else experiencing this?Also there is a rattle just above the speaker (Looks like the brake light cover) and that happens too when the bass is up a bit.So what are your impressions on your Premium sound system? I love the LCD but I doubt it was worth the $900 we paid.Paul Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/10873-premium-sound-woes/ Share on other sites More sharing options...

Buggered if I can fix it either.Sorry sir but this is within normal tolerances , yes we could send it off somewhere , but that will be $900. It is a sports car ya know. Can just hear it already Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/10873-premium-sound-woes/#findComment-125039 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, its only a cheap system by decent audio standards so expecting a lot of well controlled driving bass from the setup is never going to happen. You would need an amp with better control and a better sub driver to get the results you are expecting at higher volumes.
