Update on my audio upgrade. I've taken the first step and swapped-in the BSW Stage 1 speakers, front and rear. After some learning curve on the first door, the rest went easy-shmeasy and I knocked all that out in about two hours.

Already on the high and midrange, huge improvment. Much crisper high-freqs and far less muddy mids. But I do feel the lack of some decent bottom. So, I'm most likely going to go for the subs too. Might have to wait until Spring, as I have no heated garage and winter has suddenly hit Michigan this week. I feel lucky to have gotten the door speakers in on a nice sunny 52º day.

Roman, since the BavSound speakers were pretty much a swap with the OEM, am I right in assuming that the rest of the items on your list (amp, wiring harness) are needed for driving the subs? I'm a bit of dunce when it comes to this stuff, so I may need some hand-holding on how and where to rig those things.

Thanks!
Geoff

P.S. And I just have to preach to the choir and say...damn, I love this car!
