Width was not good on SQ tracks like Left, Right Center about 2-3 inches inside the a-pillars very narrow, in some songs was just a little bit wider but that was because MIds+Tweets where aiming at center of the car, more on axis and reflexions on the side glass made it feel slightly wider but once we opened the windows the width was gone.

Center image was not in the center, way over to the left side almost touching the Mids right in front of my face, Time Alignment wasn't done properly the same for x-over points, didn't aloud for Point source! Mid-Bass (LOWs) cross above 600 Hz and Mids sounded hallow in 3.5" PVC caps

How did his system sound?

Do you guys buy stuff to listen and enjoy music or you buy music to listen to the stuff that you installed ?

He's system is miles behind mine (install and tunning), he has mids and tweeters similar to what I did at the beginning (see image below)

He doesn't understands PLDs, Time Alignment, Imaging, staging, linearity, tonal accuracy, depth, point source, width and center image along with other stuff, so his HU (another P99 like mine) makes every thing sound, crisp and clean but the 3D factor is missing from the equation.

So far I didn't have to pay for any Reference Tracks (I would now that I know how important and beneficial are), I do enjoy my music specially after using Tracks to improve my system.

It's not just about "sounds good and loud", to me the COOL FACTOR is 3Dimensional!
