Order of Importance?
here are mine:
1. clarity- has to be extremely clear, particularly with vocals and upper freq. instruments. Hate harsh, smearing, edgy mids/highs.
2. tonality- instruments should sound as close to the real thing as possible
3. impact- mid bass particularly, but overall, there has to be a lot of dynamic presence if the source is supposed to be that way.
4. staging-I like when instruments are spaced properly, as best as can be in a car anyway, and around the upper chest/eye level.
5. imaging-not as important to me to have the singer dead centre, at eye level, as long as instruments are stable and not moving around too much, it's good for me.
6. loudness-obviously it should be loud enough to call a car audio system, but as long as it keeps up on the highway at cruising speeds...that's good for me.
what about you?

You know what, I'm not that picky, like I wouldn't even notice most of the things u listed off. I just don't have the ears for it, but sometimes my car 99 GA has a squeaky belt and the engines kinda loud. So sound deadning is very important to me, wich reminds me I gotta get a roll of fatmat or something.

My aim with regards to an audio system, particularly in my cars, is to have it sound as close to a good pair of headphones as possible. Denon ahd, senns, etc...I've never been interested in trying to make my car sound like a live venue as most live performances I've listened to left me wanting the cd track instead. The good live performances are so good, that I don't think it's possible to re-create that sound in a car...the impact, clarity, ambiance and energy of them is impossible to get from an engineered medium like a disc.
