Pros: Excellent Processor, I love the Bluetooth fuctionality. Also, I recommed the .2 over the .1 because you can save and load saved EQ settings.
Cons: It does not work with the iPhone. I don't like the fact that I have to stay with a palm based device although I love my palm phone. This is the reason that I gave it a 4 for features.

After checking the manufacturing date of the unit which I've got shows November 2008, I'm glad that the Bluetooth issues has been rectified with this unit. Got it install early this year, no problem with it, and my setup is 2 way Active setup and a sub-out. Software only installs to WIN XP. Hopefully RF will upgrade it to Vista soon, as XP will be obsolete. Anyway the sound stage setup with this unit is about 80% to 90% achievable.

I was really reluctant to buy this item because of some of the negative reviews regarding software implementation and Bluetooth functionality. But I also really liked the function set. According to the specs, this units would do everything I was hoping to accomplish with my system.
Well, I took a chance and ordered it, and I have to say I can not understand what the haters are talking about. I had no problem loading or running the software. It works fine on my Windows Vista laptop, though others had claimed it would not work with Vista. I had no problem with the Bluetooth, in fact it was easier to pair than my cell phone, headset, or mouse. I love the fact that it has a remote knob for subwoofer volume and that it can be installed in a discreet area, minus the under dash box that it comes in. Sonic Electronix had the best price, comparable to used units on eBay.
I would love to see Rockford Fosgate release an iPhone version of their software, since I don't own a Palm plaform device. I would galdly pay for that!

Review written by Greg from San Francisco, Ca
I never give reviews, but the experience with this product has been so bad that I felt compelled to do so. First of all, it's completely overpriced - really all you're getting for the extra amount is a software upgrade, and while it was theoretically worth it to me, that's only if it actually worked correctly. That is to say - I'd pay DOUBLE this amount if it actually worked like it should. First of all - all the software is outdated, it only works with Palm OS and Microsoft XP (Vista is not supported anymore), and it's a completely unstable program. The system forgets the settings you put in frequently and randomly, and then bluetooth will only pick-up your signal periodically - mine doesn't work at all anymore. Meaning that the wrong settings get locked in your system and you can't change them. Call Rockford Support up and they have TERRIBLE attitudes about helping you, even though I sat there with a team of car stereo experts at the shop (paying $80/hour) and they're all saying the 3.sixty is the problem in the chain. Support finally says send it back and it will take 3 weeks minimum for them to look at it, and "they might not do anything at all". If they were cool about I'd be fine, but I spent a fortune on this thing and they couldn't have been ruder.
Ultimately - this is a software product from a Hardware company, and it hasn't been updated in YEARS, you're at the mercy of a buggy program, and it becomes the absolute bane of your existence because it controls your whole chain - it's like turning your car audio experience into a Windows XP computer that has the blue screen of death all the time. Warning you now - stay. far. away!
