I just installed this system yesterday and I absolutely love it! Like so many others have said its the perfect amount of bass, and the sound is sooo much clearer now, the tweeters do their job.

I do have one problem though, after several hours of listening to my own music yesterday I tried switching back to the radio only to discover that I no longer had any reception... I know/hope its something simple that I have overlooked, has anybody else had this problem?

I have rechecked the back of the HU and everything seems to be there and connected properly. I believe the grey connecter is the antenna and I have triple checked that one.

Id pull the hu out real quick to double check the antenna connection visually.

Hmm I did not have this problem. Have you checked AM/FM and sat radio?

All bands are down?

Could be a wire in the door panel that came loose.

Thanks guys. Yup was something simple I missed. Pulled out the HU a third time and was missing one connection, it was nicely tucked away out of view, must of missed it when I was throwing everything back together.

Yea AM Radio!!

So I have had my system in for about a week and I LOVE it. Sound is amazing and it is not base heavy although the low end is very nice. I turned it up yesterday quite loud and did not get any distortion. All my different types of music sound that much better. And let me say I have a wide variety.

Install was super easy. Only thing I would suggest is to bend the tab for the sub first when all the panels are off. Just a bit of a pain when doing it last.

So only 300 to upgrade for existing users? That's not too bad.

I wonder if it would be possible to just drive to them and have them re-tune it so save on S/H

To be honest they should be charging people 300 base price + tax. We're actually paying a little more than promised because were getting charged tax on $400 and then taking off 100. It's not that much but it's just the principle of it.

Hey random question,

How are you guys cleaning your sub enclosure? Mine has a bunch of white scuff marks from things hitting it over time. It has a sand paper-ish feel so using a towel or paper doesn't really work.
