I meant that wiring at 0 AWG would be mucho expensive. If I do wire at 0 AWG, I'd want to get the maximum benefit out of it

Overall SUPERB EFFECT.

Like Navin says, sound is subjective. I don't have nice things to say about MB quart, by the way.
And the sony 4 channel amplifier is value, at the most. Not the best amplifier there is. Not by far.

I think the new Ground Zero 0 Awg cable set is for 7k. Which is not expensive and will not break anyones pocket.

the iPod interface is a dedicated hi-speed iPod processor where you can use the HU to shift thru folders, songs etc. it is not only very fast but also enables ID3 tags and complete text displays.

The Pio 8950 has exactly that with BT

2. GTO507s are not co-axials. They are components, but my guess is you meant GTO937s (which are not available at that price with B&W).

Apart from that, if you are buying only a 4-channel amplifier, why do you need 3 RCA cables?
There is an 8950 BT and I have it in my car , I did however get the coaxial model no wrong I meant gto 527 ..

That is precisely why I added "AFAIK". Can you please tell me the difference between 7950BT and this one? I don't know about this model and how widely it is available. I would appreciate your inputs.

Components at the rear?
SONY amp?
2 speakers at the front??? Jeez, why not just one next to the driver's ear?
ONE monoblock and ANY 12" sub???
You sure are a treasure trove of information and brilliant advice.
NOTHING apart from these will work better??? actually, he can just listen to the Skoda's engine note; even that will sound better!

There is nothing wrong with components at rear. If someone is on budget, Sony is not a bad choice for an amplifier.

Pavan probably meant a good monoblock and a sub. Relax.

Mais non, c'est ne pas la même chose!

Saying "a sub" would leave the choice of sub to the user, with the assumption that a good sub will be chosen based on what the user wants. Saying "any sub" would mean that "all subs are good and any one will do".

Sorry I cant see the picture because of firewall restrictions ,I dont think this particular model is very widely available when I did a search on this model no it came up in Australia / New Zealand ! Also I honestly dont know the difference between the two except that I paid a bomb for the 8950 !
