Car audio technology has come a long way since the days of AM radios and bulky speakers. With advancements in sound engineering and electronics, today’s car audio systems offer an immersive listening experience comparable to that of a home stereo system. From basic factory-installed units to high-end aftermarket setups, drivers have a wide range of options to choose from.
On June 15 starting at 1 p.m., the Don Koll Stadium is hosting a Car Audio Show where car enthusiasts can invest in upgrading their audio systems with high-quality speakers, amplifiers, and sound processors to personalize and customize the listening experience. Many modern car audio systems come with advanced features such as equalizers, preset sound modes, and customizable audio settings.
In today’s digital age, connectivity is key when it comes to car audio. Bluetooth technology allows drivers to wirelessly stream music from their smartphones or other devices directly to their car’s audio system. This level of convenience encourages drivers to explore new music and playlists, expanding their musical horizons. Additionally, built-in voice control systems and integration with music streaming services further enhance the user experience
Psychologists have suggested that music can relax, give strength, stimulate reflection, arouse emotions, or intensify a person’s day when listening to music while they’re driving.
And that can cause some problems when people drive around with their music blaring so loud it can be heard blocks away. ”I have no problem with them blowing their eardrums apart just as long as they keep their windows closed. Playing music at a pain threshold in your vehicle indicates to me that you are brainless, inconsiderate and selfish,” said Revett Eldred, a retired American.
“I am a professional musician. I don’t have enough listening time in my life and I’m always looking for more. Certain kinds of music and artists give me energy. All the same, sometimes I like silence, like the plumber who doesn’t want to fix his own plumbing,” said Tim Walters, a retired music professor.
“I listen to ridiculously loud music because it makes me happy. I love music and always listen to something whether working, driving, chillin’, whatever. So, my car is an extension of that,” said Philip Garcia, originally from Houston, Texas.
“Listening to loud music in your car prevents you from hearing emergency vehicles’ sirens,” said David Flores of Gringo Gazette fame.
When it comes to upgrading your vehicle’s audio system, selecting the right car stereo is crucial. Everyone can look at the options available on June 15 at Don Koll Stadium.
