You're right though. Even with a high performance battery, it should be addressed.
The charging system still has to be up to snuff if he's going to run an amp for the comps plus a 1.2 or 2-2.9s. Might be less of an issue just running the 5.1 for the whole system.

I ran 2awg from the factory battery of my 05 A4 to the trunk where I have a
1.3 farad cap (more for sound quality reasons than power supply) then 2awg to the amp. At normal driving conditions under full load the factory battery's voltage never drops under 13v. The only problem I have is overheating due to lack of fresh air in the false floor.
If this is going in a little Audi, ask your installer if he feels you have addressed the power consumption issue adequately.

the 3sixty.2 is supposed to have the coolest UI and overall controll compared to
all the other systems on the market, but as far as acoustics it falls way short of every other available option...
Audison will be releasing their BitOne system in the next month. i'm REALLY excited to get my hands on one. I'll be writing a full review. There is a lot of excitement about this piece on the 12vInsider forums.<ul><li><a href="http://blog.sounddomain.com/gadget/2008/04/update-audison.html#more">sound domain pre-release review of the BitOne</a></li></ul>

sq is the most important to me but..
i still want it to knock hard if i am in the mood. I will daily drive it on the sq side though. Bass **** problary 30 percent.
how would it sound if i went two 10s and the 5 channel amp. Would it still be loud?

I used a sealed box, and my system is loud
I haven't given it the DB test.
The difficulty is when one person says something is really loud there is no fact behind it. Getting real life dB numbers that you can compare is the only way to describe the systems capabilities.
I am a bass head, and I'm more than satisfied with the output off the LRx5.1k
I've got my A channels to the rear fill, and I'm soon going to be loading down the B channels to 2ohms and adding ANOTHER set of the MLK165 in the front doors.
So, if you do the math.... (1) $1500 amp powering 3 sets of high performance 6.5" seperates, and two monsterous 12" SQ woofers..... I'd say it's a badass amp.

I actually don't care for the GUI in the 3sixty.2.
It's too small to really useful off a palm device and the GUI in Windows doesn't fill a screen either. That unit is good for smaller systems that need limited processing but not for larger or more complex system that require more control.
The BitOne looks interesting but what is the MSRP going to be if they had to offer the Auto-EQ spearately for $300 extra. Is this a $1000 processor we're talking about here. Also, how do you control it? Is there a front mounted control unit? The reason I ask is because it says it has digital inputs. If you use the digital output from a HU, the signal is not affected by the HU volume control. There needs to be a way to control the volume of the system if the digital input is used.
