Goin' with the Z-55 today
Well, this site sold me on the Ravin. I have an appointment with the Midas in Oceanside which was recommended because of Willie the master mandrel guy. I'm leaning towards 3" SI/SO, but will talk to them when it is up on the rack. I was quoted $275 plus tip. I'll report back when the job is complete.
Great site and invaluable with this decision - probably never would have heard of Ravin without it.

ZenAudio,
I've got the Z55 as well, you won't be disappointed with the system, the sound is great and the performance increases make it just that much better.
