Amazing setup I've never heard of the 3sixty but it looks like a great piece of equipment.

It's the brain to the whole system now. Makes quite a difference, especially with the difficult acoustics of a convertible. I wouldn't have gotten it, however, if I had changed the head unit to an aftermarket one. I'd have just gotten a head unit with as much capability as this thing has, which you know, most good aftermarket ones do.

Still haven't gotten my wood trim piece back yet, but called them, and they expect it back on Friday.

As for the speakers, well the other tweeter in the dash is damaged, and doesn't match the output of the replaced one on the other side. Apparently the short they created blew each tweeter...so another one is ordered from Polk for $45 shipped. I didn't feel like arguing with the shop again, considering the paid for the trim to be refinished and the first tweeter replaced.

Also, both rear coax speakers were blown...no wonder they sounded pretty bad.  I ordered a set of replacements and went with the component 5.25" set



The installer was able to install the tweeter behind the grill this time, not back behind the trim panel...so the highs were more visible. It actually sounds pretty good right now.

My repair shop thinks they can get two (2) 8-inch subs built into the rear seat...so we'll see what that project holds and update you later.
