Default a few steps i did to improve my stereo sound

Installed some deadener all around,ccf(closed cell foam)on doors,roof,and back wall. And a layer of mlv(mass loaded vinyl) on doors,floor and back wall. Tremendously improved the sound quality of my sound. I did install a set of component speakers in the doors,amp under the seat and a new Alpine. But most of all,keeps out unwanted road noise. With my windows up,you can barely hear anything outside.

Lol. Not sure about the value but I think it doubled the sound quality of it. It really made a huge difference. Only thing I hear outdoors with the windows up is an exhaust leak under the passengers floor board. Not sure if it's my cat has a leak Or what but that's another thing on my to do list

lol, yep, it just happen to be the first station that had crystal clear reception once the radio was powered up.
