[QUOTE="Betelgeuse, post: 8741582, member: 680503"] One issue is apparent. My source *****. My HU is always connected to my phone bluetooth. I listen to a lot of YouTube videos because I'll get a song in my head that I'll want to hear and it's easy to just YouTube it. None of the music levels are the same, some loud some soft, all compressed and crappy. Pandora is better, but I dont get to pick songs. The USB stick was awesome with high bitrate songs on it. Im going to sign up for Spotify and try a wired USB connection. If this audio quality doesn't do it for me, I'm thinking about trying something. I set my component set gain about 2/3 ~ 3/4 max headunit volume. Its plenty loud cranked up, loud enough to overcome road and wind noise when driving topless. If I have it cranked up and come to a stop, its suprising loud. I dont listen to it nearly that loud when the top and doors are on. I probably listen to it at half to 2/3s of that for daily driving. I'll set my sub gain at daily driver level with the sub bass knob all the way up. That way, if I need to drown out road noise and I crank it up past 22 or so, I can use the base knob to turn it down, because I'll probably be at volume 29 or so. Thoughts? [/QUOTE]
