Has anyone used or hear the BAVSOUND speakers for an i8? I love my car, i hate the weak H/K's they put in it an I'm looking for more clearity and a little more bass.

My two cents:

The fact that the amp can't be upgraded is a bit of a downer. The new speakers may sound smoother, but the amp feels like a bottleneck to me. I wouldn't expect a night and day difference from their speaker upgrade alone.

The "sub" in the rear seats is going to be hard to replace...it's a 6x9 with a decent amount of mounting depth, but the stock speaker is strongly attached to the bracket.
