Plugs not looking so great. 
  particularly plug 3, it’s moist. Not terribly. 
  grabbed a bottle of Techron, fingers crossed

Just picked up a JL Audio ACS110LG-TW1 PowerWedge+ 10" powered subwoofer with 400W integrated amplifier.   Not sure when I'll get around to installing it, but I'll post some pictures here when I do.    

Hi Shacky. There are several existing threads on this subject.   Here is one: https://lincolnmkzforum.com/topic/4140-lincoln-protect-extended-warranty-cost/?tab=comments#comment-17758   I would encourage you to Google "Lincoln ESP sellers", then perform your own price shopping online and with your local Lincoln and Ford Dealers. You will get your best prices online from the two sellers I mention in the thread I linked to above. Either Harold Zeigler Automotive Group or Flood Ford.   What I can tell you is: For my last 4 Lincolns, after extensive online and local Dealer shopping for Lincoln ESP/LincolnProtect Plans, "Harold Zeigler Automotive Group" has been the lowest price. Therefore, I purchased from them and everything went smoothly. Flood Ford was always the close runner up, usually $10-$20 more.   Let us know how you make out and good luck.

I bought my 2017 last December.  Original warranty expires end of August.  Wanted to make sure I like it and it wasn’t a lemon before purchasing EXT warranty.   What suggestions do you guys have?  And can you negotiate with Lincoln?

Glad to hear it's working out well for you. 

Hey all, just wanted to report back that I’ve had the car for 3 months and it’s been great. Had a steering wheel clicking issue that the dealer resolved under warranty  but the headliner as it’s part of the interior they will not cover as electrical and mechanical are they only items that the the premium plan covers.
  Dealership was great and provided a loaner for 3 weeks as they were backed up. 
  Just wanted to thank everyone for their feedback!   R

Hi mkultra. In addition to Izzy3906's advice on Infinity brand speakers, I would also recommend consulting with Crutchfield: https://www.crutchfield.com/S-wgQ2VGTuOLg/   Call and speak to one of their Installation experts, or use their online "Find what Fits your car" tool to see what your choices are. They have excellent customer service. And even if you don't purchase from them, at least you will get some good ideas on what will work in your car within your wants and price range.   I have used them in the past and been very satisfies. If you do purchase from them, they provide detailed installation instructions, all necessary wiring and connectors, lifetime tech support etc. Their prices are competitive, if not rock bottom/bargain basement low.   Let us  know how you make out and good luck.

Hello mkultra I went with infinity speakers and tweeters all around on my 2014 MKZ you can check some of the pics on my showroom.

Using lossless or HD files is a good start but it does not guarantee good sound.  That unfortunately is up to the recording engineer and as I mentioned a flat frequency response to me sounds horrible with too much emphasis on the mid range.  My point is that every recording has flaws regardless of the source quality and reducing mid range frequencies is usually required to make it tolerable on any system.  

I got a 2016 base mkz recently and the stock system is lackluster.....to say the least. Not a Thx system either....   What does everyone run these days? With so many speaker companies these days, I haven't had enough time to research them all. Back in my day it was either kenwood, kicker, alpine, jl's etc... Looking at DS18's, Alpine's currently but open to recommendations. Im just doing the 6.5" fronts right now and then will replace the rest one by one.   Suggestions?
