Doesn't it seem a little late to be adding new amps to the ride when it is due to open so soon?

It kind of does, but who knows? It could be that once they got into full testing, (and playing all the new music at the desired levels) they discovered some clipping or something. This could be as simple as swapping out the amps for beefier models with more headroom. This could require extra panel / breaker work as well.

I really hope this isn't the case. People go to school to study this stuff, there should be no question that what was installed originally could or could not handle what they would need it to, for years to come.

Until you do full testing you don't know what a system will or won't handle. You can build a system for all scenarios in the world, but until you do real world testing you don't know if you missed something or something needs to be adjusted. Its why testing is done.

Or some celebrity Imagineer like Joe Rohde decides 60 days before opening that some hallway or corner of the queue or a specific ride scene needs more bass, or more treble, or louder effects. And so they change it last minute to get it right, because Disneyland isn't Knott's or Six Flags.

I think the most likely reason for the new audio equipment is that the existing stuff is a decade old (unless they've changed it already). Eventually, the equipment will wear out so they're likely just taking this opportunity to upgrade everything so they can get another decade of reliable use.

My guess is that these permits are materializing after the fact. The matterhorn fastpass signs, for example, were just posted but the ride reopened weeks ago. That retaining wall is intense stuff, 53 feet by 11, so its almost certainly been constructed already (perhaps months ago).
