I will never understand what compels some of you to install such costly items in a car, let alone an Accord.
It seems to me that it would be so easy to lose your $4,000 wheels, 10,000 audio setup, $1,000 headlights, $8,000 paint job, or plethora of other parts to a collision, act of theft, or vandalism. I'd be ****ting my pants after a car-totaling collision like you had, praying that my $3,000 head unit still works. Sure there's insurance, but for most items this costly, there's very limited availability to replace them.
Secondly, I find the idea of having audiophile quality audio in a conductive metal cage full of circuits interfering with each other, traveling down the road against roaring wind, bumping and grumbling over every imperfection in the asphalt a bit ironic.
I would prefer to have all that beautiful audio equipment at home in a cinema room designed inside of a Faraday cage, where I can enjoy the audio without interruption, and really make my money perform as it should.
But that's just me...
