Just finished the install ( will post pics shortly ), Didnt retune just yet as I ran out of time as usual..

Impressions so far " DAMN, WOW " Just set the gain to 9 oclock position ( min = 7 ) Saw this in one of Technics threads.

Sounds damn good, Way more mid bass hit without even retuning.

One thing though when I tried level matching I used my iPhone and JL Audio app for SPL Meter ( put iPhone next to shifter on center console ).

Played a test tone from MS8 and the front speakers registry 92-95dbs when played through the underseats it registers around 84db's If I bring
them to 92-95db I feel ill be overpowering them but then again maybe a retune will bring it right back in line.

Either or they sound way way better, this is the biggest improvement almost more than the MS8 over stock amp..

Will post pics of install asap + set aside time for a retune.
