I already attempted JLaudio 6 1/2 speakers in the front doors for about 10 seconds... they sounded like total poo compared to the OEM.

The thing is I am demanding on my sound systems as I listen to the heaviest of metal with the New Orleans style bands that "tune low, play slow" with lots of powerful low mids from de-tuned guitars. I only want to make this buy once and want the best possible sound. I will also likely be going with the JLaudio 10" stealth box, as it should offer more punch for the kick drums that are so prominent in metal.

Other than making sure I get the best option for me, I am ready for this purchase! Any price breaks would be MUCH appreciated. THANKS!

Well as a fellow metal/hardcore/hardrock fan the Rainbow Audio drivers work great for this :) In my 1999 M3 Coupe I use the Rainbow Audio IQ Line front drivers and Rainbow Audio Soundline Drivers in the rear. My 1986 535i I use Rainbow Audio Soundline F&R. In the 5er they are amp'd but I LOVE to turn them up very loud and experience the metal nirvana.

With the treated pulp/rubber surrounds midbass/midrange drivers and large silk dome tweeters you can experience parts of the music that you just don't get with the OEM system. I would highly recommend it for a fellow metal fan :)

We can give you a further discount if you want to purchase the subwoofer with the package and we can hide this in the rear side panel :) The discount would be 100 dollars off the subwoofer and if you want to go ahead and place the order I can offer to give you free shipping as well.

The Rainbows will give you the clarity you want. Even going with only the front soundastage I was very pleased with the clarity and the depth they added. With an eclectica taste like mine I was really pleased, (everything from NIN to Tim McGraw and a little Beethoven thrown in. The dynamics are all there. I'm not as picky about the fill but you would likely want to go with the full Stage 1 for a little more clarity in the back.

I would give our 8" sub a chance. Every person that hears it is always amazed that the quality and amount of bass coming from the vehicle is only an 8" subwoofer. I certainly was and I like bass :)

And the difference in local politics would be damn near culture shock! Not saying ot would be for better/worse, just different.

I have a great amp fot the JL setup, just need the stage 1 kit I guess. (hint hint BSW guys) ;)

Just replied. Sorry I missed it before :(

Let me know if you have ANY other questions!
