Hi Pappy, where ya been?? Personally, I am running a Pioneer Premier head unit with a Pioneer 6 disc changer mounted in the compartment behind the passenger seat. It took a bit of practice but I can switch cartridges while driving. I've got Sony Xplodes at all four corners mounted in the original boxes. Beats the snot out of the Bose.

WAY UP? Who says classical doesn't sound good, with the volume turned up to 11?

Ever listen to Wagner 'Ride of the Valkyries'? Col. Kilgore's 'attack tune', from Apocalypse Now.




or Copeland's 'Rodeo' ("roast beef: it's what's for dinner").



With a good sound system they're incredible. Rip the knob OFF!!!

Man, I thought I was the only one around here who listened to classical. And Aaron Copeland is one of my all time favorites. Here's a couple more:

Greig - Hall of the Mountain King



Khachaturian - Sabre Dance



Prokofiev - Romeo And Juliet - Montagues And Capulets
(this one takes about ninety seconds or so to get up steam)
