Hey all, have a question for you. I had a '13 with the standard non-Alpine system. It sounded great and had good full dynamics. My Alpine system sounds empty which I've seen discussed before. I don't need more sub but I could use more mid. What speakers are recommended for plug and play to fill the gaps better?
Also, the non-Alpine system was very responsive. I have a loaner today that has the non-Alpine system as well and the volume and mute buttons are very responsive and immediately you get results when using them. On my Alpine system there's a delay in the mute button when un-muting of a bout a full second before the sound comes back. Same is true for my steering wheel volume button, it has a very slow response time. Is this common for these systems? Is this due to the amps having a delay in power transfer?
