I am not worried about how loud it is. It sounds terrible at half volume now with all the buzzing from the doors. So if I lose 50% volume, it's fine. This car is louder at half than my 2016 was at full, too, so I am not worried about it being too quiet. Going to do some dampning work on the doors in the spring, and I can't bear to put them back together with Bose Speakers.

On top of what you said relative to DSP, my car is a convertible, so there are also two modes of the Bose EQ - top up and top down. There are a couple solutions that pull the signal pre-bose, and at some point, that is where I will head.

The thing is, every time I try to do an all-in-one project, it just takes forever. So step one speakers. Step two add a sub, step three get an amp wired post Bose, step four get the DSP and get a pre-amp signal. If I try to do all that at once, it might be years. Going to try to do one a year. Maybe two if I can keep my wife from giving me home improvement projects!
