Flip a coin.

Do know that you need to buy a palm device to use it since it's a bluetooth unit. You can probably pick one up on ebay for 30 or so bucks.

I'll make it easy on myself and get the 360.2, lol

Why a palm? I just got a Droid thunderbolt yesterday, couldn't I use that?

Because the palm will let you sync and install the 3sixty software onto the phone from a laptop

Why a palm I guess is my question? Why can't any Bluetooth device sync the data with the 360?

Can any other phone support the 3sixty.2 software on it? I really am not sure. It would be cool if they came out with an app for the iphone or android phones.

That'd be sick, I'm gonna do some research and find out, I'll let you know what I find out for sure..

To anyone who's wondering, the cleansweep hasn't been delivered yet. But the TL's with ky installer getting everything installed

Plan is for the trunk,

Build mdf trunk floor cut out, point the sub box as close to the rear seat as possible kitetik battery next to the sub then the amps all the way to the back of the cars trunk closest to you when you open it, should be a really good clean install.

Pictures and video of it will be up ASAP

You should fire the sub forward into the cabin and seal the trunk off. That'll eliminate about 95% of your rattles.

Alright so everythings installed right now, they used jl high low converters, and it sounds amazing. I couldn't be happier with it, I honestly dont see how the cleansweep could help, its CRYSTAL clear even at 40, and I never hardly have it at 40, so being that I have about 275 store credit in the cleansweep should I pick up a equalizer or just pocket the 275 and call it a day?

Btw, pics will be up in the morning(:

you think a cleansweep can do wonders? the 3sixty.2 or bitone.1 or ms8 can do a whole lot better.

The 3sixty.2 works on bluetooth, the bitone.1 has a usb cable, not too sure about the ms8. I have mines mounted in the trunk. the bitone.1 you can change different tunes on the display controller itself.

Pocket the money. Save it for a real processor when you want to upgrade your components to a higher-level set.

Jl's like bigger than advertised. Box that small and it's gonna be peaky. Most teens like that, though, so most companies advertise stupid box requirements for maximum spl. If u want it to be musical, and have low end, get a bigger box made for it

Man you aren't kiddin, id never build a box for under 2 bills, if I even knew how, but based off prices I hear somewhat consistently, I can't imagine how/why he does it so cheap? Is he on any forums, do you have any of his work via pictures, peoples experiences when dealing with him,etc?

I see, but I'm sure you know of the w7s excursion, and in tip of that how can a box be built with the wall a the back if the seat when the rear seats don't even fold down?
