Poc, have you installed you subs in your E55? Just curious what you have chosen.

I'm in the same boat you are. I just want better bass, but does not have to be booming (although I don't mind if it turns out that way).

I was thinking of putting 2 8inch JL Free air subs I have from my steath kit that was on my BMW 3 series. They sound pretty good in there. But I am leaning towards 1 10's Solobaric in a sealed box mounted up under my deck.

I haven't done anything yet, all I did was to mount under the deck an amplifier (PPI) and a band pass boom box (huge with a couple of 10") that takes most of the trunk, I took that box from my suburban while I decide to do anything
