I've been lucky so far from what I hear. No door sag, so sill scraping, nothing. Only the damn sun roof But that will be fixed under warrenty. But not to threadjack. I want to upgrade my speakers too.

I'm not sure. Did they have the upgraded pioneer system? If they did, I would assume they had the same speakers.

I thought the Pioneer upgrade was for all speakers. I could be wrong. I dunno, just assuming. It's ok, I don't mind making an ass out myself. Hahahaha

wouldn't he want a dual 1? the bdcp models tend to harness the same amount of output at 1 and 2 ohms...same power easier on amp.

that is true. with the new bdcp amps you have to choose between more overall power or easier on the amp and more efficiency a dual 4 instead of a dual 2 would get the same nominal power but once the impedance rises you get less power
