Default Stereo off, am I alone?

Since I bought my GS, I don’t think I have listened to the stereo more than ten times. In my truck the stereo is always on, same with my wife’s car. Is it just me? Am I alone? I love just listening to the sound of the Vette. Am I the only one?................. :D

I never bought a Corvette because it had a nice radio.

Radio is MAYBE for long trips with the wife along.

Otherwise, I would rather listen to my babies do their thing. :thumbs:

I am a radio guy......I love all kinds of music. I am also just about the only one here who loves the bose radio in my coupe. I drive some nice cars and the radio in the corvette is my favorite! ;)

Ever since I installed a Borla sound system several years ago, that Delco/Bose thing is just filing up a hole in the dash! :steering:

:rofl: :rofl: :lolg: That one is great!

So I guess I listen to KL98@4500rpms. The blose is horrible sounding and the antenna motor broke so I only listen to CDs adapted through the cassette deck occasionally....once I get a completely new sound system, things may change (yeah, that'll happen soon :rolleyes: )

I almost always listen to the radio. But, I can hear the exhaust all the time too over the radio. Best of both worlds.

No, you are not alone, no need to "suffer" in silence. :D After having the chambered exhaust put on the car I can't help but leave the stereo either down or just off. I just had Dr. Don's go over the head unit, and while they did an outstanding job, I can't help but prefer the exhaust note over the music note most times. :cool:
