Has anyone tried installed the JL Audio Cleansweep? I am looking to keep the factory nav unit as I like the clean look that it has compared to installing an aftermarket nav unit. I am just nervous about installing the Cleansweep into the car as I am not sure what's involved with adding the Cleansweep. Every time I have done a install on a vehicle I rip out all the factory stuff and install Alpine and JL Audio gear.
If you are looking to buy one, I have an new unused one that I will sell for $150 plus shipping... PM me!
Depending on what you're trying to do, you'll probably also need the SSI module to sum the electronically crossed-over signals coming from the factory amp (I'm assuming that you've got the JBL since you have NAV). There have been a few PriusChatters that I'm aware of who have used the CleanSweep with varying degrees of success/happiness. Keep in mind that the CleanSweep will simply give you four channels of flat (un-equalized) line level signal to feed to aftermarket amplifier(s). It doesn't give you any equalization capibility, time correction, cross-overs, etc. Shawnb2 actually tried to use a CleanSweep and had no luck making it work...ended up going with an aftermarket head unit. There are other options, but they are pricey: look into the JBL MS-8, the Audison Bit One, the Rockford Fosgate 3Sixty.3, and the Audio Control DQL-8.
I had Best Buy install the Cleansweep and SSI module (along with new speakers, dynamat and an Alpine amp) in my V. Works great.
I had it done in two phases: the speakers and dynamat was $140 and the Cleansweep, SSI and Alpine amp was $300.
