AAcabriolet, Jason summed it up pretty well. I'm actually running the basic HiFi system in my 135i. The sub sounds great in this car. What I actually have been able to do is turn the bass down on the factory speakers (doesn't distort or rattle the outside as much) and turned up on the subwoofer in the trunk. The position of the subwoofer is good as well. I've done this style enclosure on a couple different cars and they all have sounded good. Not sure what subwoofer your installer was talking about, but you can DEFINITELY feel the 10" JL subs. I would imagine ANY 10" sub will sound great as well. The JL 500/1 powers the JL W6 or W7 nicely. It all depends on which subwoofer you decide to go with.

I wouldn't mind building an enclosure for you, but shipping may be a bit expensive. If you're interested, feel free to contact me via PM or email. According to your profile, it shows you have the convertible? Is the trunk carpet different from the coupe?

Thanks for the compliments guys!
