I will spend the $150 on the Focal speaker upgrade, then call it a day most likely. Hard for me to justify the $800 amp only upgrade while also losing ASD.

If I find the system to be so terrible after the speaker upgrade, I may look to an amp.
I upgraded the speakers (with added tweeters) and can say that there is a good improvement. The downside is that the stock amp is lacking in power and you will find the sound to be softer and lacking bass. I can understand about the ASD though. If you like it then you shouldn't upgrade the amp (I have an aftermarket exhaust). Although the group buy price is not $800, so if you buy later you may miss out on the discount. Tough decision
