I know this probably doesn't happen much here but are there any people that have an aftermarket stereo system in their Volvo. Just wonderign because I put an 800Watt RMS stereo in my focus and was just wondering if anyone did the same here.

Stay away from Sony. They make complete crap when it comes to Car Audio. Sure it's usually cheaper but the stuff will not last longer than 1 year guaranteed. Go with names like Pioneer, Clarion, Alpine, JBL, Infinity, Rockford Fosgate, Phoenix Gold, and if you wan't high quality stuff JL Audio, Adire Audio, Focal, MB Quart, and Eclipse Audio.

Stay away from Sony, low end MTX, lightning audio, jensen, and dual.

Trust me usually with car audio you get what you pay for.
