[QUOTE="parasitius, post: 7634809, member: 639424"] I'm new to this hobby, but is this thread for real or gross exaggeration? I have left my Amazon Kindle on the front seat repeatedly, and nothing happened. Seems a helluva lot more trouble to break in my trunk and steal my dual-12" Rockford Fossgate (which weigh 100x as much but cost same $). I have also left rare and hard to find Chinese books (out of print) and various imported metal CDs in plain view and no break-ins yet. "Turn OFF your stereo about five minutes before you stop and park your car somewhere. Bumping your system in the mall parking lot as you look for a space to park may not seem like a big deal, but you have pretty much told every would-be thief in the area to "steal my stuff". Also, if you are in high school or college, NEVER turn on your system anywhere near campus." What is the point of even having a stereo if you can't use it? I only travel more than 4 miles from my apartment once every week or two. Work and food all within 3-4 miles. [/QUOTE]
