lol.

I don't have music on loud, in fact I often have talk radio on as music is something I like to enjoy at home on a proper system and without distractions ....... but I don't think you need to subject yourself to silence in order to drive well.

If I am having fun in the NSX, granted, I leave the tunes off - but that is only 'cos I like hearing the engine.

I am sure if something happened like a spring snapping, you wouldn't need to rely on hearing to realise something was wrong!
