  1. Oh, I forgot to mention that the shop gave me two different quotes. One quote was for replacing all speakers, adding two amps, and the RF 360. The other was leaving the stock speakers (surround, and D pillar) powered by the factory amp. Guess which one was $1,000 less....
  2. If the shop will let me post them, I will do that. I am also going to check into some other shops.

  4. However, could you add brighter LEDs to fit the housings so they can act as foglights?
  5. One advantage to your DRLs is that I don't have to add a separate switch to my dashboard.
  6. Chris, Thanks. One more question. Did you change the speaker wiring or keep the stock stuff?
  7. Random thought: I wonder if we can put something like this on our Edges as an actual foglight. http://www.hidxenonlights.com/universal-fog-lights-c-671/white-version-2-led-fog-lights-p-205
  8. I think I want to add this to the mix...... http://www.audiocontrol.com/t34/17612/712451/OEM-Integration/LCQ--1----Six-Channel-Line-Output-Converter-with-Equalization-and-AccuBASS.html
  9. Indeed. I work in IT but have an interest in car audio and home theater. As for BA, I have had a good history with them. When I had a 1994 Maxima, I replaced the rear speakers with BA coaxes running off of an Eclipse head unit and the stock (read: Clarion) amp. It actually sounded pretty nice. Given that we have Sony systems in our vehicles and how they are interconnected with a ton of other things, I definitely don't want to change that out.
  10. I am waiting to hear official word before doing anything. For now, I will just plop the wife's Garmin on the windshield.
  11. Cdpratt: Right now, I am in the research phase to determine the costs for this project so I can start stacking the coins. I did look at your setup and I like how you have the amps in the spare tire well. I would like to do that because I don't want to lose the ability to fold my seats down. With your sub in the spare, where is your spare tire? If there is a way to do that w/o losing my spare, I might be interested in doing that. I am also tempted to incorporate an EQ in there. As for mixing brands, are you saying that based solely on timbre? I know with home theater systems, you have to use the same brand of speaker for the center channel as you do the fronts because each brand may have a different timbre and can affect sound quality.

  13. Polycharger is an additive that enhances what you are using. With Klasse, you use the water based version. Info can be found here: http://polycharger.com/
  14. On top of that, I have the Polycharger additive for it.
  15. I actually have two RO machines and two rotaries. I use the ROs for polishing my glass (Autoglym has a nice glass polish) and working the Klasse AIO.
  16. Prb: Which Porter Cable RO (Random Orbital) did you get? 7424 or 7336? I would recommend the 7336 partially because of the larger counterweight which reduces the vibrations. BTW: Which pads did you get?
  17. Cdpratt: I have used the Klasse products since 2001 and have not looked back. Over the years, I have used the following: Klasse AIO (All In One) and SG (Sealant Glaze) plus the following items: - Pinnacle Souveran Wax (Highest gloss with darker colored cars) - S100 Wax (Essentially the same as the P21S, but cheaper and can be bought at any Harley store) - P21S Wax I have used Klasse AIO and Autoglym's Resin Sealant and topped that with Pinnacle Souveran on a Black Maxima and that rig was shinier than Darth Vader's helmet....literally.
  18. I am also in the East Valley. Where'd you get your Edge from? Berge? Sanderson? San Tan? Chapparal? Five Star? Earnhardt?
  19. The current V6 reminds me of the VQ35DE in my last Maxima in terms of performance.
  20. akirby, I would take the EB 3.5L V6 versus an EB 4 cylinder that makes that much power. Part of the issue is that of refinement. I like the smoother power delivery of the V6 versus the 4 cylinder. No matter what, a 4 cylinder is going to be more coarse/raspy/harsh and will not have the smoothness and refinement of the V6.
