[QUOTE="Jeffdachef, post: 8518845, member: 650438"] Dude he's just got $$$ in his eyes because you brought in a 2017 car. If he's tuning the DSP with an RTA and fully doing an amazing super tune with it with full blown time alignment, EQ, ETC, it should sound absurd with the SQ, not just "oh this sounds nice and clean" No you cant settle for just nice and clean paying that much money. Your soundstage should be on point, you can pinpoint out where every instrument is coming from. Midbass should come on very strong and you can hear drums sweeping across the dash, vocalist dead center even tho there's no center speakers. You should hear every minute detail and clarity in a song. If you have a good pair of headphones aka audiotechnica m50s or higher, you should hear that first for a reference on what clarity and detail is. Your car should beat that out by a mile when properly setup. for 680 dollars worth of labor, you should have an Sound Quality competition level ready install and tune. As for the gear.... if his price is equal to amazon plus a 50 to 100 ish bucks, then its a standard good price from a dealer. If he's selling it to you for manufacturer MSRP, then you are getting hosed. [/QUOTE]
