I just bought a 2016 Toyota Vitz, and the system sounds considerably worse than my previous 1998 Toyota car, due to the bass being way too pronounced. It's pretty weird, as both cars used stock speakers, except one is 18 years newer. Why is the bass SO loud? From what I've been reading, most cars don't come with a stock subwoofer.
What can I do to solve this? The stereo doesn't even have EQ so I can't just EQ the bass out. Most solutions to bad car audio say "get a subwoofer", but what if the problem IS too much bass? Is there a subwoofer I'm not seeing that can be adjusted by a car electrician? Do I have to change my stereo with something else that has EQ? Do I have to change the speakers?
