Smile help me out on stereo upgrade? no HK

Hey folks!

I have no Harmon Kardon and I wish I have it on my car oh well. I listened to a C63 with HK. The highs are too sharp and bass is still not enough. So I guess I am going to add an infinity basslink sub. This would help out the lack of bass. I am thinking to get aftermarket speakers and amp for it as well.

1. How many speakers in front? 2x6.5, 2x tweeters and no center speaker?
2. How many at rear? 2x6.5?
3. Any good sub that is customized for W204?
4. Any trim or kit that is available for aftermarket speakers?
5. Is there a difference between in regular and HK comand?

Thanks for any inputs!

If you want it to look factory, take it to a good autostereo shop and have them make recommendations for you. They usually can get all the speakers behind the stock grills. Tweets and mids are easy. Big bass requires a subwoofer enclosure in the trunk with it's own amp.
