Absolutely, BertK. I wasn't expecting to hit a level of sound like that but, It was good to hear what is possible. I admire that kind of stereo. It sounded nice.

I currently have the BT Roady kit in mine and am looking for a bit "more". Would you say that changing out the titans to the ARC 602s was worth it?

I actually picked up lower fairing speaker boxes to maybe add another set of speakers to it, but really don't want to have to buy and change out the amp for another.

I felt like the 602's had a bit more base, so I stayed with them. I also did a factory reset of the Infotainment center, (this seemed to help some), and didn't get to hear the BT speakers after that, as I had the 602's in and just left them in. I have the 2180 amp and am wanting to be able to add lowers at a later time as well. If I don't sell the BT speakers I may use them there...

Try the 20.3 update. It seems they changed the EQ profile and there's a lot better sound profile.

I loaded the CVO one on mine RGS and it sounds significantly better.

I updated the software after I reset to Factory. Is the CVO update different than an update for a RGS ? I see the size is bigger. 880 for a RGS, 882 for the RGU...

Same thing other than the splash screen.

You can rename the CVO flash and install it but isn't that like putting Z/28 badges on a stock Camaro?

That's what I figured. I could at least feel like I had a CVO then.
