Well, I used to be a recording engineer so maybe I am too finicky. But the bass is very undefined (and gives me a headache because it is so loose) and mid-highs sound boxy to me. I guess the HK tweeters are better than stock but regardless of whether the spectrum of frequencies is represented I am not feeling it. I of course turned off the surround sound and messed with the EQ but can't seem to get a consistent high-end sound. If anyone has ideas about sub or speaker replacements please let me know.
