Tell me about your Reus Audio experience

[blueice89]

I want to know about your Reus Audio experience.

Tell me what system you got and any upgrades you recommend and how you like the system overall. Has it met your expectations and given a chance to make decision again would you do Reus again or different option?

I have read just about every Reus post there is and wanted more fresh outlooks since there is no 2019 posts on Reus. I am waiting in a Reus install but queue is couple of months due to travel time needed.

I had the 2.5 system installed by Cliff in my garage. Very cleanly done and I'm very pleased with the performance.

Cannot tell you about a recent install mine was done in 2013 on my Model S in my garage. Do not remember which system I think it was around $4000 and love it, also last year I was having a problem with the bass and emailed Cliff and told him that my system was out of warranty and wondered what it would cost to have him come and do a repair. He said my system was not out of warranty 5 years after install, came to my house and fixed it no charge.

These are great anecodotes I assume if given the chance to replay this decision you would still get the system today .

dont mean to hijack your thread...but my question is how much does an aftermarket system impact on the mileage/kwh?

I went in fairly blind on this one -- I usually obsess over equipment/specs/etc, I trusted my gut as these guys engineer sound, not put together pieces. I did the 2.5 setup and am very pleased. I love music, but this system made me appreciate genre's I don't usually listen to and occasional comedy/audiobooks with how crisp the sound is. Not cheap, but worth it.

Are there any reasonable upgrades available for Tesla's own premium audio system?

Well after reading more than a few reviews I decided to contact Cliff at Reus. Sitting here at Reus as I type, getting the SST stage 2.5 installed on my X. I will let you guys know how it goes but from what I’ve seen and heard, I’m positive I will not be disappointed.

So just finished up having the guys over at REUS upgrade my listening experience and I have to say I’m glad I went forward with the upgrade.

If you’re on the fence, don’t be, Well worth every cent. Sat through traffic and was so into what I was listening to that for the first time I don’t think sitting on the I-15 during rush hour bothered me any.

One thing I realized is sound is something you get used to so it does just take a few months of suffering through the bad audio and then it actually sounds pretty good . You just have to get the ears used to listening to this trash for a while . Then you don’t really comprehend what is good vs is bad just what the ears are used to. So if you are on the fence the best advise I can give is give your current Audio system a 3 month listening period and you will thanks me that you saved your 5k. Your welcome

Very true, you could technically save a lot more but buy a used Honda vs a Tesla. However there are a few of us that enjoy listening to great sounding music, that was the intent of the post.

I've only had the upgraded sound system a week or so but drive over 140 miles daily. I haven't seen any difference in mileage.
