You should try the Bowers and Wilkins system in the BMW iX some time. In the USA it’s $3,400 extra compared to their mid-range Harmon Kardon system (which itself is an upgrade from the base system), but it sounds amazing. 30 speakers including one in every head rest, two subwoofers under the floor, and 4 bass shakers in the front seats. 1615 watts total. Sounds better than some home cinema setups I’ve heard.

The most expensive thing I own is less than $3,000. I don’t think I’m this target demographic.

Yeah, people obsessed with car stereos are usually of the “I want everyone to know I’m playing music” variety.
And occasionally of the “I want it to be dangerous to listen to music coming from my sound system” variety.
Which I do kinda get, since I, too, thrive on wtf faces, though I generally don’t want to be a nuisance or damage my property in the process. Like it’s usually a wtf face from an unexpected combination that turns out to be better than one would expect, like saying I like chocolate sauce on sausages (which works because chocolate doesn’t have to be combined with tons of sugar).
