Default Pre install, any issues w/PV-HW-Sony?

I run a Power Vision (gauge mode usually) and am about to do the install of a Sony MEX-M70BT with the Hawg Wired HUA-360 adapter, PA RZ4 amp and BT7.1s and RF Power series 6.5s. Feel pretty good about my component choices, thanks to many here, but read a little about the PV and aftermarket audio-adapters. My 6.5s will be in the lowers so nothing in the wire channel-tray under tank except the power wire for amp and I had no troubles running the RF 4X and the HK head unit. Sorry for the novel and as always, I appreciate the input from any and all.

Kris - there are no known issues with the Hawg Wired adapter in combo with the PV(1).
the only issue there is, is the combo of the BT100x with the PV running in Gauge mode.
BT uses "the bus signal" for the AVC (Hawg does not support AVC).
I am not sure if the issue ever got resolved TBH. Dynojet is located here in Vegas... I went over there to show it and called Bill at BT several times (always responsive - Dynojet.... mmmm, not so).
at a certain point I gave up and replaced the BT with the ASWC as I was never using the AVC option to begin with (I took out the AVC pin in a connector when I was still running the BT to make the combo at least working both at the same time - without AVC of course).

AAWAV is spot on, the only issue is with the avc wire. I have the bt1005x and I had stopped using the avc before ever even getting the Pv. So disconnecting the avc was no sweat off my back.

yep - like that.
now the BT is more expensive than the ASWC, so I decided to use ASWC/metra combo (I paid less than 75 total for it) and sell off the BT to someone that does want AVC.
turned out good. ASWC-1 is "piece of cake" once you know how to make the wire "harness" and program it (that part was frustrating for a 25 year experience software developer!!!). so that is why I revamped the programming guide (sticky).
I still LOVE LOVE the mute (not really muting, but brings down volume 2/3 or so; so I can talk to my son next to me at a traffic light)....
also footprint is a bit smaller than BT.
