Am I just nuts, or is this a reasonable question? If you buy and aftermarket exhaust, and don't shut off the 'Active Sound', you're still hearing piped-in mp3 sound through the car stereo system. Won't you be hearing two different exhaust sounds in the same car? Nobody has said anything about how you can turn this off.
Or do you just say "What the heck, the combo sounds great so we don't care." Crazy.

The exhaust sound never comes through the speakers. It's the sound of the engine that's synthesised through the speakers. That's not being changed. So with any after market exhaust you don't need to worry about active sound at all.
