I think you may come around after some seat time.

I find it odd to use the phrase audiophile in the same sentence as car audio. Although audiophile sounds are available in a vehicle, it is usually in a properly designed room etc. I find the 370Z BOSE audio to be pretty good once the volume is up a bit, and certainly the road noise is a problem. I was an audiophile many years ago when my ears could tell the difference and had the room and reference speakers/system to be able to tell the systems apart. Too many people consider "good" audio when they are being bounced across the floor due to the bass amplification. Music/sound is personified, but when you use the word audiophile, that means the most accurate representation to the actual recording possible, and I don't think the musicians were being bounced around the studio with all the equalizer settings on max. My two bits anyway.

ok, so i took the advice of those who offered it, and tweaked my stereo further (beyond the simple adjustments made before leaving the dealership)...

i now believe the bose system to be adequate. by no means is this an excellent system, but it does the job is was designed to to. after tweaking, the lows are much more crisp at max volume, which was my main concern.

my initial quick judgment was wrong, and i thank everyone whose comments pushed me to reconsider
