I used to rely on an atlas whenever I went on long car trips. Nowadays things have changed, and drivers can now install car navigation systems in their vehicles that will guide them to their destination. Recent models of trucks and cars automatically come with this feature, and others can be purchased separately.
With such a wide range of components and gadget on the market for car audio systems, the big question is "Where do I start?"
First you must decide what exactly you wish to do. If you are wanting to build a car audio system for a daily driver (the car you drive back and forth to work) with good sounds, but you are not interested in competing, a system can easily be put together for under $1000. However, if you are looking for the all-out bass monster, be prepared to drop in some big bucks into your system.
