Hey, central florida here, too. We should get an SL meet together. 😁

Did you notice that the sound mode option (to the right of the fader) also changed from left/right to front/rear? I thought just switching to the rear option made a big difference without even changing the fader.

Hi all, I just picked up a 2017 SL63. Does someone know a good installer in the South Florida area that can upgrade the sound and or amp for the rear speakers. Thank you in advance!
