Where is this amp located?

Thanks! Appreciate that offer, and will keep you in mind. Since this is just a pretty basic install (all in one sub and amp box), I wouldn't even expect you

Thanks! Appreciate that offer, and will keep you in mind. Since this is just a pretty basic install (all in one sub and amp box), I wouldn't even expect you to make the trip out to me just to put that in.

Truthfully, I'm sort of torn on how much I even want to invest in the audio system for the Z. I dumped thousands into my Wrangler Unlimited already, on a mission to get good sounding audio out of the awful "Alpine Premium Audio" it came with. It's still not 100% where I want it to be, but it's good.

By comparison, the Bose system in the Z is FAR better than what they gave me in the Jeep to start with. I'm hoping I can just spend a few hundred bucks on this sub upgrade and be satisfied with it.

I could help calibrate and tune that as well. Have a tuning mike as well as other tools like smd dd1. We could get it sounding good.

Default re: calibrating and tuning

You know? I do actually still have an Alpine module that needs to be installed with the X109-WRA head-unit in my Wrangler. It's supposed to allow it to turn my light-bar on and off, control the winch remotely, etc. from the stereo itself.

I ran out of $'s when buying everything else and decided that was really a project to do another time. Would you be interested in trying to tackle that too? If so, I guess I really do have some work that could be done on the Jeep. I'd like to get it calibrated and tuned.

I still have an AudioControl DQDX installed in it right now, but I just leave it on "bypass" mode, so the only purpose it serves is letting me adjust the bass sub volume level via its remote knob, I installed underneath the steering column.

The Alpine stereo seems to be capable enough that I didn't think the AudioControl really did me any good anymore, but maybe you'd discover otherwise in the process of tuning?
