 Standard vs. Premium Sound



Looking for some feedback here. I spent maybe 5 minutes in 2 530's -- 1 with Premium Sound and the other without. Took a couple CD's for comparison. Music is a major part of my driving experience, so I'm stressing big time over this $1,800 option. Honestly, it didn't sound like $1,800 worth of improvement to me. I noticed a graphic equalizer + choices of 2 pre-set sounds (concert hall (?) & I forget the other).

Am I missing something? Is the standard sound system pretty darn good as it is??? Did I not give Premium Sound enough of a test??? Help -- I could use some feedback/opinions.....

I'm no audiophile and I think it's worth every penny of the $1,800. It really is a great sound system and I think you would kick yourself every time you got in your car if you didn't get it.

I would definitely get the premium sound it is amazing. Also spring for the Satellite Radio. I have had my car 10 days and barely listen to anything but the satellite. You will probably never use the 6 disc changer (especially with sat) but that sound system is far superior to anything I have heard in a car in a long time.

Spend the money on the Logic 7. You'll kick yourself later on if you don't.

If you have squeaks and rattles, go for the premium sound.
I didn't and now I'm sorry!

Did the dealer say anything?
