[QUOTE="JW266, post: 8757761, member: 670352"] I know nothing of the 360.3 but I do know that integrating dope **** into a bose system is just not gonna work. Bose uses dark matter in all of their products. ****'s like DJI for drones or Apple for computers. Modding is just not possible. My Lexus had the Mark Levinson system which only had 9 speakers and they use the weirdest ****. The rear speakers are 4" mids and play some weird combination of frequency ranges. When playing only the rears it doesn't even sound like music. You can definitely bring up the vocals with your crossover points and eq. Depending on your tweeter location. With my pioneer hu I use from 500hz up to 3.15khz to raise or lower vocals. Also try lowering your xover point (if your tweeters can handle it). I always have my tweets up at or above the dash and as on axis as possible. Lowering the xover gets more of the vocals coming from the tweeter and makes them clearer and more prominent. Obviously that's just my experience. For gain setting you don't need to bring the preout voltage into the equation because you're using the output voltage tomatch the amp to the headunit. Easiest way I can explain it. Gain = exponential multiplier. The higher the preout voltage you feed the amp the lower the gain setting will have to be to hit that rated output. If you had 2 volt preout you would have to turn the gain up much higher than if you have 8-volt preout to get the same output. It also like calibrates the amp to the HU so that as you raise the volume on the HU the amp will up it's "multiplier" value so that your volume knob stays linear (or as close to linear as possible). When you hit full tilt on your HU the amp will also be at full tilt. [/QUOTE]
