I'm new to the board but have already gained from some of the great threads that have either helped me learn more about my vehicle or confirmed what I already knew.
I have an Onyx Black SLT2, V6, with Nav, 19" Chrome Rims, Cargo Package, and Hitch. In other words, with the exception of the Rear Seat Entertainment System (which I didn't need or want), it has everything you can get and the price reflected that. I really love the looks and handling of the vehicle (have about 2,000 miles on it now), and the Nav system is a massive improvement over the one that comes in most other GM products. That all said, there a few things that I feel are real shortcomings, especially in this trim level. Many of them have already been discussed on this board (lack of passenger power seat, express up windows, Homelink, etc.) but I do not see a thread that discusses the Premium Pioneer Sound System.
I've tried all types of music and sources (CD's, iPod, FM, HD w/ MP3's, etc.) and find this sound system lacking in high end clarity (treble) that I have become accustomed to with other "premium" systems, and in particular, the Bose that comes in many other vehicles. The bass in this system is very good with the sub and 250 watt amp but I think they missed the boat on the rest of the speakers. I've played with the three equalization settings for each input a bunch of times and am convinced that this vehicle may find it's way to my local audio customization house one of these days for new speakers.
Anyone else?
