So the difference between this system and the original is the elimination of the dash mid-range speakers, replacement of the door speakers, and an updated DSP for all speakers?

What's up with the pricing? When we originally ordered we were told that we could upgrade simply at the difference in pricing, however it looks like the upgrade is the difference in price +$100.

They also said that reprogramming of the DSP would not be necessary for the upgrade when I inquired about it at the time of purchase, apparently that has changed as well.

Does the price listed already include that or is there a coupon?

Edit: Didn't get the code when I registered yesterday. Emailed them and got it and just ordered.

They did clarify with me too that the dsp will need to be reprogrammed. That was my understanding since the beginning as well.

Which makes sense since they eliminated the midrange woofers. My guess is the more they tweaked the system the more they had a hard time getting the midrage to sound right. Thus needing to reprogram the DSP. I had the same issue with my aftermarket speakers and found everything to sound cleaner by eliminating the 3.5 midrange.

So here's the thing. It's still NOT just the price difference with the discount guys. They're charging you tax based on the $400 price and then giving you the $100 discount rather than just charging the base $300 + tax.

I had missed the portion about the $100 discount coupon for current customer. Talked with Dan today and he got the coupon to me. He also confirmed that things had changed since we last spoke and that unfortunately reprogramming of the amp will be necessary. That's a bit of a pain, but not too bad. I'll probably hop on it next week.
