It really depends how good or bad your headphones sound, and how good or bad your speakers sound. I think either home theatre or even reasonable hi-fi speakers or studio monitors sound quite a bit better and more lifelike than, say, the Audio Technica open-back headphones I have (or the Beyerdynamic DT770 or budget-level AKG closed-back headphones I had either)... All the headphones very much sounded 'like headphones' to me, with quite some limitations compared to speakers. :/

I still have my 09 Si Coupe. Bone stock. Bought it from a one owner gentleman who is in his 40s now. Babied that thing and kept in a garage most of its life. It had 102,000 miles when I bought it back in 2019. It now has a little over 156,000 miles. I still get looks from some folks. I always look back at my Si every time I park it, when it's clean of course lol! It's just that good looking of a car. The 8th gens, I think, were the last great Civics IMO.

@henrique-3d Жыл бұрын

Last great civic unfortunately, last engine that revs high from Honda. Only 2.0L engine N/A who can produce 200hp stock, 8400rpm redline, what a beast. 5th, 6th and 8th will be forever in my heart

Damn kids will do it to you, but honestly I would still haul my kids around in it daily. I remember back in the day my dad carried me and my brothers around in a small Ford ranger. There were two side seats behind the front seats. It was very cramp, we rode in that till we were teens.

Must suck to be boring, huh? Cars clearly have no backseats, and if you're going to say "but I had a coupe" - yeah, they sure don't make sedans. Guys kill me with how much they let their wife dictate what car they're going to drive, because the women always want a Shitty Useless Vehicle. Need all that ground clearance and big tires to run over all the curbs and shit...

@alansmilealot 5 жыл бұрын

@@Shintsu2 lol, honestly a family car can still be a coupe. We grew up in small vehicles and didn't need a large SUV. My dad only went to a large truck in the late 90s because he wanted to be flashy but it really didn't add to the family hauling potential.

@hbray86 5 жыл бұрын

People always think if they have kids they need to get an SUV or Minivan for some reason. I guess the marketing teams are doing their jobs right. You and your kids aren’t any safer in an SUV, in fact you’re more likely to get into a rollover crash in one where you can get more seriously injured.
