Unhappy with the sound quality of my install. Where can I improve it? Wiring?

[QUOTE="Jeffdachef, post: 8676349, member: 650438"] first off, audiocontrol and stock head unit, you cant expect anything decent or even mediocre out of that. Aux from the phone is even worse. its 100% the issue for most of your sound quality issues. Anything stock head unit is 100% garbage in nowadays standards. The only way you can possibly get anything good is if you have a DSP that can dequalize and restore the garbage signal thats coming out of the stock head unit but the sound is already low resolution from the garbage Dac of the stock head unit. Cant stress enough how every install with a stock head unit and audiocontrol unit I've come across IRL and all the people making complaint posts on this forum and facebook and other forums that the stock head unit is always been the issue for SQ issues. Try a different grounding location or even a direct battery ground and do the big 3 upgrade for your hiss issues but the hiss could very well be related to your audiocontrol unit as well. actually 75% sure its related to the AC unit. You really dont understand how low quality stock head units are in terms of DACs. How they process music gives you garbage from the start, the audiocontrol doesnt fix anything it just boosts up that garbage now you get louder garbage to make things simple. [/QUOTE]
