Hey dargnez what sound processor you using? Do you have a link. I have a jetway motherboard it sounds decent, not to bad. I am not all into the bass thing, I just want 1 8 inch speaker.

Road Runner, I like it because it integrates so well with FREEDRIVE for GPS.

GPS is usually a couple seconds behind, I dont think that would be very accurate...I could be wrong though.
