In many cases the audio system is not a priority for automotive manufacturers. Even if you have purchased a quality car you may still need to upgrade your sound system. Replacing the speakers can offer you a clearer sound as well as a tighter bass. You can find a variety of quality speakers for sale in South Africa. Another way to get the best out of your sound is to decrease the compression of your audio files. Compressing your files increases storage capacity but it has an impact on the sound quality of each song. This detracts from your listening experience especially when you have a high-end sound system.

    I’ll have to try decompressing my audio files for sure. My sound system is pretty solid, but I have noticed the quality of some songs are less than others. These are good tips though, if I ever need to replace my sound system I’ll have to refer to these. Thanks for sharing!
