Default Cleansweep... Yes or No

I'm getting ready to add amps, speakers and a sub and am going to keep
the stock Bose w/nav head unit.
Some say I need Cleansweep others say you don't want it, don't need it.
I'm would like to hear your opinions.
Thanks,

You 100% do not need the cleansweep, its going to do nothing for you except cost you money and give you a stupid volume ****. Read C6 FAQ komomans info about how to do this without cleansweep. I had done stereos in 5 C6s all stock headunits (nav, non nav, and bose and non bose) works great on all of them

I still have one sitting in my garage because I thought it was needed at first, turned out not to be necessary.

Thanks guys, no Cleansweep for me.
I'm going to Automotive Entertainment in Santa Monica tomorrow to select the system to have them install.
Amps; Alpine PDX 4.150 and PDX 1.100 or
Audison VRX or LRX Series not sure which models, this is their recommendation. Speakers; Dynaudio 220mkll, 240GT, 260, 362 or
Focal 165KP2, 165KP
Sub; I already have the Image Dynamics IDQ 10 and Stealth
enclosure.
Any comments or suggestions would be appreciated. Again thanks,
CraigE

Thanks Craig. I'll email you the enclosure install manual tomorrow. I think you'll be more than happy with your new Image Dynamics IDQ V3 in our C6 enclosure... let me know if you need any help...
