Thanks man. I am really happy with the Focal K2s. The fronts being 2 ohm pull a lot of power from the LC-4.800. I am a little underwhelmed by the 4 L7s under the back seat, but I am hard to please when it comes to anything below 100hz. I am also not thrilled with the performance of the DM-608. It has plenty of configurability, but I have been fighting with a lot of noise, and audio artifacts. I need to try another DSP and see if I get better results.

Damn! That looks fantastic.
How have you tuned the system? By ear or with an rta? I bet money we could get A LOT more out of those L7’s with simple tuning. I wouldn’t consider those sq subs but absolutely SPL. They just need some adjustment!
Stereo shop I go to has a 2018 Shelby Raptor they are doing 4 Audio Mobile GT2 10’s under the back seat aiming up on 1600 watts. It’s seriously loud and clean and gets pretty deep considering it’s sealed. They did Hertz SPL SV 165.1’s front and back and SPL ST 35 tweeters, Hertz Amps with 1100 watts to the 6.5’s and 1000watts to the highs.
They aren’t done with the Shelby yet but they did one last week with this setup and it was insane and loud and with good SQ.

How has your NAV TV unit been?
I recently switched from Toslink to RCA as I would quite often have to unplug/re-plug the power to the NAV TV unit to get it working after starting the truck. The guys at NAV TV said it was due to bad Toslink cables even though I had tried 3 new cables.
Has it been more reliable using RCAs?
Thanks!
@Ruth, mine was doing the EXACT same thing. Along with several other problems. Long story short, they replaced my NAVTV unit. If yours is doing that, it is probably bad. Mine was. Call them and ask them to replace it. They are very easy to work with. They sent me a new unit that stopped that particular problem, but I was having several other problems so eventually I just brought them the truck to look at some of the problems I was having. It took me 10 hours to get to their facility. They tried to be helpful on the phone, but I guess I needed to show them some of the problems in person. They were very accommodating when I got there. I will eventually get around to doing a write up on all the problems I've had and the solutions. There are some that still exist that I am waiting for fixes on. In the meantime Metra has released an A2B adapter, that I was considering trying out. I just got my truck back from Ford on Saturday. The dealership had it for 9 weeks. NavTV might have released an update that addresses some of my other issues. I will know more by next weekend. I wonder if PAC will ever release an adapter. I wish Maestro would make a kit that would allow aftermarket radios.
In answer to your question, RCAs made it a little better, but not really. On TosLink, it would shut off and I would have to pull over and re-seat the fiber cable. When I switched to RCAs, it would still shut off, but then it would reset itself after ~30 seconds.
I guess I got lucky. I haven’t had those problems thankfully with rca or toslink. It’s been pretty flawless. Any small issues have always been emailed to Tony and NavTV and within a couple days, there’s an update available. Sorry for your trouble.
After researching the Metra piece it doesn’t look like his has as many RCA channels as the Nav TV or a Toslink option. It does only retail for $359 though.
