Any one tried Bongiovi Acoustics DPS?? - Toyota Yaris Forums

The company I work for actually tested these units. Granted, it was in an anechoic sound chamber and not the actual cars, but the overall impression was "meh".

From what the engineers told me about it, it seems to be a custom tuned EQ setting (there is a bank of DIP switches on the connector side) for each model that it's compatible with. It boosts the frequencies that your sound system isn't good at reproducing. The general consensus from the lab techs that tested it was "spend the money on an aftermarket system instead." The only reason I can see going with this is if you insist on keeping the OEM head unit to deter theft.
