From what I've seen here the best option is to upgrade the amp and subs. Where are the subs located? I breifly looked under the seats and didnt see anything (thats where they were in my 335) and any recommendations on amp and subs? Ive seen a lot of people going with the JL audio xd 600/6 amp, what about subs? If I even have them...?

Thanks
What aspects of the audio system are you trying to improve? Lots of available options but the one you take depends on budget and what you feel the biggest issues are.

Generally we think the HiFi cars have two main issues:

1. Lack of bass response (fixed with upgraded subs, although we will tell you NOT to use the Earthquake, they sound terrible)

2. Overall poor clarity and detail, sort of muddled / harsh mids. Our Stage 1 is a great solution but lots of other choices too, depending on some other factors.

What are your NEEDS? That's the starting point for all recommendations.
