    I have mine just above road noise. I listen half to news radio and half to music. So I don’t really need to have it cranked too high.

    depends what speed limit of road I’m on and who is in the car. On a highway, it’s quite loud and even more power is required when I’ve got the roof down icon_punk.gif

    even on minor roads it’s still loud but I do sometimes turn it down a little when I stop at lights or I’m in slow traffic :party:

    Usually a normal listening volume, sometimes softly if I’m not really in the mood for music. For me mood really determines a lot about what music I want to hear or if I even want to hear it at all

    saying that, over the last 6 weeks I had a radio ban :(. My battery was going flat for some unknown reason icon_scratch.gif . I thought it was just the cold killing it but after swapping it with a fairly new battery my mate got from his garage. I still got the same dead battery after a few days. I eventually traced it to the glovebox compartment light not going out when you shut the glovebox

    needless to say, the radio is back! icon_headbang.gif

    the weather’s not so bad these days, though not warm so I think it’s about time I took off the hard top and put it into storage so I can drop it when it’s sunny.gif

    I don’t listen to the radio if I can avoid it. Don’t like much of what’s on

    Depends how I’m feeling. Generally I have it at a volume such that I can speak easily to everyone in the car. Sometimes I’ll have it loud enough so that everything in the rear view mirror blurs in time with the beat.

    Going Mobile or something by The WHO – I could definitely see that

    If it’s a CD I really like, usually loud enough to blur the car behind me in the rearview mirror w00t.gif

    Just loud enough so that I can enjoy it, unlike most of the
    twits in the neighborhood. crybaby2.gif
