[QUOTE="rtuite, post: 8629125, member: 665351"] I have a '90 BMW 325i which is very small by today's standards, and I've been debating myself on how to resolve my midbass issue. My setup was done a couple years ago on somewhat of a budget, but I'm looking to improve my sound. It sounds pretty good, but I'm lacking a lot of midbass which I'm finally getting around to addressing. My current setup: JBL P660c components powered by a PPI BK210.2 Sundown SA8v2 powered by a Zapco ST-850XM Right now, the crossovers are mounted on the rear deck with wires running to front with mids mounted in kick panel and tweeters mounted on A-pillar. Less than optimal, I know. But there's no room up front for crossovers. What I was thinking was: Move the JBLs to the rear deck Buy *something* to fit the kick panel that gives better midbass (not decided here, open to suggestions!) But, I wanted to consult people way smarter with acoustics than I am before I did so. Should I keep the too-big JBLs where they are and put some better midbass speakers in the rear deck or go ahead and move the JBLs to the rear and mount whatever I get up front? [/QUOTE]
