Only semi-related to your situation ..... I find a sub (small
'under-seat' variety makes casual recreational car-listening far more
satisfactory, because one can hear the bass without the door-speakers
overloading, and keep the overall level down to something sensible.

Interesting, never thought about that.* I doubt I could ever get one to
work with the existing factory radio system though.* It definitely would
lessen the strain on the OEM speakers, however.


Mine has a remote sub level (or 'Volume' for Thekma's benefit) to
partially compensate for varying sources, ie typical FM station versus
'pure' CD/ Ipod (lossless), or other unfriggedwith sound.

Hmm, so I'm guessing you've never done a MLSSA or any other
analysis of your listening space. Do you even have a clue about
the frequency response of your car's sound system?

From what you've described thus far it seems you are dealing
with a rather limited and quite quirky space. The more you know
about that space the better you'll be equipped to deal with it.
