Yeah definitely love the miniscule (but noticeable) details the focals bring out in the music.

Yeah it's pretty intense. These guys removed it out of my C63, reinstalled the stock system...and then are now installing this into my CLS. Will be done next week. Street Noyz is by far the best stereo shop I have ever dealt with, especially because they take their time to do it correctly, and will sit with your car and make sure it is properly tuned -- and, if anything happens to the materials or products due to malfunction, they dont try to hem and haw about swapping things out. Skip and Paul fix it, and get you on your way.

This is the 3rd car I have brought to them, and have 7 other friends that have gotten full systems in their cars. I may sound like a commercial, but when it comes to small businesses that take care of their customers...I will gladly spread the word!

Nice quality components, sure it's going to sound great. Where are the subs going? Can you post how they took apart your dash and or center console for the 9500 install.

Yeah, can't wait to get it back and then put the wheels on it, and I'd like to be done with mods. Not thrilled with what I've been hearing about tuners and the cls63 ECUs.

There has been no issues with RENNtech that I know of, and of course there is Brabus north of you

I've heard of certain tuners (who will not be named since its hearsay) that have broken ECUs for the 5.5L TT. Even though I don't have first hand knowledge, those stories are still enough to keep me satisfied with the PP "tune" mine came with.

Man, that's scary. I thought the ecu turning is pretty much only flashing the ecu to change the firmware. Of course, I'm also the type that is satisfied with the oem PP tune so to keep the factory warranty in place.
