what car? is it a bose system? (i hope not) That'll help determine which path to go down.

I'm kinda interested in the David Navone N-645. The only think I don't like is that there's not an aux input for my IRiver mp3 player. My factory deck has an aux for MP3's but when I took my truck in they said I needed an adapter for like $125, were they just trying to get money out of me or does it actually need an additional adapter? It's a 2006 Suzuki Grand Vitara and it's not a bose system.

Ok, I think I'm taking JL out of the running because I'd lose my steering wheel controls. So David Navone N-645, LC8, or 3sixty.1?

For simplicity and tonal response I would look to the Audio Control 6XS. While it is not advertised as a LOC, it is indeed a advanced LOC. It will afford you a crossover at a higher slope than most amps, a master input gain control, output gain control, a built in subwoofer level control with volume knob that mounts up on the dash and of course, the LOC. All you need to do is take your factory speaker wires, extend them to where the 6XS will be mounted, solder on a RCA end to each one and that is it, done. This works great if the factory head does not have a heavily equalized output or is not in a multi channel output (being more than front / rear / left / right).

For more advanced again, as in 8 channel output, aux in functions, the LC8 is the way to go.

LC8 might be what I got with then. Anyone have any experience with the 3sixty.1?
