C230 sedan sound system

3233 Views 4 Replies 4 Participants Last post by  Map
Hey guys. New here.... the dealer called me today and said they got a hold of the C230 sedan I wanted. I pick it up either wed night or thurs. What is concerning me now is the sound system. Does anyone have any information regarding it? I got the stock with the changer in glove box. I was going to tear it out but after finding out it's fiber optic, I am wondering if it's worth the head ache.
Thanks
Charles

I feel the stock sound system in my Coupe is average or just very slightly above. If you set the fader towards the rear the sound becomes muffled. The unit sounds best for my liking with the treble set 2 notches from full and the bass full. AM (for news and talk shows) stations sound down-right bad (tinny). I don't have the CD changer yet ($1000 from the dealer?), but the tape player is decent. This system is nothing compared to the Alpine unit in our Navigator. I think the larger interior volume of an SUV lends itself to better acoustics.
