Head unit discussion

The droid units are janky af tbh. I looked down that route and ultimately decided on a Sony android auto / carplay unit (XAV-AX100). Not sure what more I'd want it to do. Looks factory, sounds fantastic. Supports cameras.

I have the Cerwin Vega unit coming in this weekend, so maybe I'll let you know how it is with a similar setup.

For the components, I'm running Hertz esk 165.5's (100 watts RMS, 300 peak each). Currently off headunit and sound amazing due to their sensitivity (93.5 db), though I can tell they'd like more power when I crank it on bass heavy songs. Going to see if relieving them of the lower frequencies with the sub makes me happy. If not, I'll be throwing a Hertz HDP 4 at them.

The Z is a tiny space, so it really doesn't take much. I have zero desire to add the rears.
