After abandoning car audio for 25 years, at age 50 I decided to install a serious SQ system in my daily driver. (Never into the “boom”, even as a teen.) I sound deadened the doors, built custom A-pillar pods for an active 3-way front end, time alignment and 10 bands of PEq for each driver and countless hours of tuning with a calibrated mic and Room EQ Wizard software. I am extremely happy with the end result even though budget gear from JVC, Dayton and MTX was used. After reading this Kicker amp review I shudder to think how my system would measure, all daisy chained together. Sometimes ignorance is bliss.
