Me?

My interior is not completely assembled yet but I did a dry run and liked what I heard.
It is not super loud like an extreme system but loud enough. The woofer was clear sounding and blended so well that you could hardly tell it was there. Not boomy at all.

I felt like the stock Bose woofers weren't blending as good as I hoped so I am installing components with another 4ch class D amp next to the woofer amp. That is a work in progress.

Cool. Let us know how it turns out. The stock Bose system sounded so horrible to me I could hardly listen to it and rarely turned it on but to listen to news talk radio. Needless to say, the audio system was my first mod!

I don't need a thumper stereo. It just has to sound good!
It doesn't take a lot of money to hear your favorite song.

My home theater is Maratnz and Kef speakers.
I'm not big into car audio.

I love Marantz! I haven't heard anything not named McIntosh that sounds close. My AV8801 preamp is just a beast of a home theater preamp.




I haven't heard Kef speakers too much, just a bookshelf pair years ago and they sounded good.
