    Try locating all the MP3s to a dedicated folder, with all your other files in another folder. It works well on mine! So well that I went out and bought a 2GB USB stick to dedicate a lot of my music too haha.

    Pity to hear about the install. Keep us updated.

    Fingers crossed they'll rip it all out and start again, this time with the RIGHT cabling and charge very very little for it.
    sounds like they may not have even wired them up.... probably had a trainee working on it (sorry science hahaha)

    if your speakers are under the factory grills, use a small flat blade screwdriver at the base and pop the cover off and take a look if they actually put your speakers in!!!

    $5 says they havent wired them in!

    Just rang em, explained the situation and they said call back at 3pm! Complete bull****!

    According to them too, Stinger and Sound Quest are one and the same! Sif!

    The speakers are in there, I might go attack em with a screw driver now and see whats what. Yeah i'm pretty sure it was a trainee who worked on the car, he was young and didnt look too happy when he handed the keys back to me.

    Sound Quest is made by Stinger, but its their cheap range i think.

    just because its made by stinger doesnt make it stinger.

    just because a holden is made by gm doesnt mean you can go around saying you have a chev right?

    Well the new chevs use the same engine as the holdens... hehe

    Westside Car Audio has a few branches over here, so rang one of the others, gave them the story and theyre going to fix it all thurs morning.
    Basically theyre going to yank it all out and start again, use audison cables and make it work. Fingers crossed hey?

    Finally, good news!

    Took it back this evening and they sorted it all out for me. Even put on a DVD for me to watch in the waiting room whilst they did their stuff. DOA has alot of hotties

    As it turns out, the high pass filter on the HU was the reason for no woofer action.
    The tweeters got moved, all the cabling was redone properly with audison and it sounds damn fantastic!

    Now just gotta wait for it all to bed-in and I have myself a sweet stezza

    Mostly. Took a good look at it all on the weekend and they've reused the old speaker wire. Seems a bit daft when u have a higher-end HU, a sweet amp and higher-end splits All audison cabling otherwise tho.

    Soundwise... it could be better. I'm thinking its mostly the burn in period for the gear and then it'll need a proper tune.

    WONT be taking it back to west side car audio to get one tho.
