I'm looking for some suggestions to upgrade the audio in my 2010 E90 M3. It has premium sound, but I want to increase the output and clarity of those stock speakers and add a sub to the trunk with an enclosure that doesnt take up too much space.

Any input is appreciated.

There are a few companies that offer full upgrade packages. One even offers a package deal with a subwoofer/amp setup.

This guy did a nice install:

But the best thing you can do at this moment is search. There is tons of info on the site relating to this. Whether you want to upgrade the under seat subs, put one in the trunk, swap out all the speakers, or do a full blown setup, it is all here somewhere you just have to find it. I have spent hours reading on all of it. Just look around for a bit, you wont be disappointed...

Yeah I have an inquiry to musicarnw and have been waiting on a response. I appreciate the info!

No worries! I have been researching the audio on the car as the subs are woefully inadequate. I like the Muicarnw setup in the trunk a lot. Looks OEM and wont affect my trunk space other than Ill have to move my glass cleaner/MF towels from that spot.

These guys have a full speaker replacement package also:

They have full speaker replacement kits. I think they were working on some sub stuff also. My memory sucks... But its another place to checkout.

Start with the trunk sub first
I installed a trunk sub
And the system sounds a lot better
