Hello, before joining this forum, I've always been interested in music in superior quality. For that reason I was always on Head-Fi forums and always been listening and collecting high-end headphones (V-Moda, Sennheiser, Audio Technica, Grado, ect...)
However, now that I finally have a vehicle (Honda Passport 2000), I would like to get into car audio (I do have $$$.) The problem is I know absolutely nothing about it. I always try to get the best I can for the money that I invest. For example, ATH M50 headphones ($115.00) are as good as headphones up to $300. That's kind of what I'm trying to do with my setup.
My primary concerns for the overall sound is, very well-balanced sound, with excellent clarity in the high-range, the mid-range not more than slightly recessed, and a slightly over-done bass (or at least be able to control it with some sort of switch.) By slightly over-done bass I means something that has far less bass than what you typically listen to in other hip-hop listeners cars.
Any good newbie info is well appreciated, as well as some good setups at a good price. I have about up to $800.00 to spend if that info is relevant
...........
btw I listen to mainly hip-hop and electronic genres. i also love metal, but from what I understand, in headphones at least, the setup for hip-hop/electronic will be quite different to one for rock.
