[QUOTE="nicholas_r_d, post: 8783385, member: 684447"] The song comes from a Disney movie Encanto and my 5 year old LOVES that movie. I am just happy we are no longer in the Baby Shark phase! Gotcha. They didn't say it was "the only way" but they did push it above anything else they floated around after looking at my setup. I do want the best/most customized setup possible, so I am okay with the Virtuoso even though it is about 4x the cost of the JL. They have a guy there and all he does is tune cars and has been trained to setup the bit one HD among others. I (think) I have confidence in him being able to tune the vehicle correctly. Could the installers turn the "volume" down on all of those stock speakers? They sit within 6 inches of your ear and most of the time (after the first after market sound system install) I can hear them MORE than any other speaker in the car. They come through "first"...it is cool when I am listening to a podcast (makes it feel much more "full") but when it is music, the speakers are now more of a distraction, rather than helping "fill" the sound in the cabin. I will speak with the installers and see what my options are. I did a quick google search on "coloring" sound...follow up question. What if they say "yes"? Is that a good thing? Should I ask them to "color" it if they say no? This is a whole new thing to me, so can you give me a quick "coloring for dummies" so I better understand what I want/or don't want? I assume I do not want any "coloring" done? SO...Lets go a little crazy (on paper anyway)...assume I have the space (because I kinda do)... There are 4 sets of speakers in the ceiling above each persons head (dual 40mm speakers) There are 2 sets of speakers in the very back (25mm tweet & 80mm mid) There is 1 set in the front center dash (25mm & 2x100mm - these have already been upgraded) How would you power these speakers? How would you DSP them? There are 7 cables that would need to be run at minimum (1 cable for each "set") Would you choose to run 7 cables into an 8ch amp and then to a bit One (8 port version) [/QUOTE]
