Definately sounds like a tune issue with the Audison. I have one in my F-150 running off the stock head unit and it took a couple weeks to get it dialed in the way I like it. The software is amazing the more you mess with things.

It's alive!!! haha. Wow, it's amazing what a little eq tuning can do. The shop made some changes in the bitone and really woke it up. The original setup was set super bright with virtually no mid-range and lacking low end bass. They really warmed up the sound and turned down the tweeters. Now it sounds incredible. Although, I wouldn't say it's 100% perfects but it's a really good start. I guess the speakers might break in a bit over the next few weeks too and improve sound even more. The salesman explained that a customer who had just recently purchased a system similar to this enjoyed the really bright tune. He thought he would try this out on my system as well. I guess everyone has a personal preference for sound. Sometime down the road I might try to tune it a little more myself, but for now I will stick with this new tune because it is a night and day improvement. Thanks everyone for you input on this. I will try to add a couple of pics.

I have a lot of the equipment you have. I running two hertz Mlk 2 woofers in the front doors, and three way hertz in the rear. I have two shallow 13" JL Audio subs and the bit one is connected to the Uno and Quattro and a hertz two channel amp. Once you fine tune it yourself you should be quite impressed with the sound.
