How annoying for other folk.

You're a musician, you should appreciate loud music.* I once
had 6kW of music in a Honda CRV.* I couldn't see out of the back
window when on full blast, everything went blurry.

How was it powered?
6KW from a 12v battery is 500amps and that does not include losses.
A typical car battery is 50-100 amp hours.

Unless you're playing a pure sine wave, it's not 6kW continuously.

I had an extra three 113Ah batteries in the back anyway to run a
fridge for camping.

It had a high powered alternator fitted.

It had a couple of farad capacitors in the back and a very beefy
cable running from the batteries.

How sad.

What's wrong with doing something properly?** What do you listen to
music on?** A Roberts radio?

IPhone or IPod.

Hardly powerful enough to give the full range of frequencies.

Usually audiobooks rather than music.

Two completely different things, we're discussing listening to music.

At Uni I shared a house with someone like you.
He didn't listen to music so much as listen to his hi-fi.
He would buy Jean-Michel Jarre CD's and listen to the, hiss free,
silence between tracks.

Er what?

The only vague connection I can think of is you're implying your friend
liked to show off the quality of his equipment.

Is that a euphemism? ;-)
