Got my 2010 coupe with Nav and Bose 2 weeks now. My '06 with the same Bose never sounded like a premium stereo. I hoped this one would be better, but it's the same thing. XM has no fidelity, no depth no matter how I change the base, treble, etc. The same with changing the equalizer. Is there any help out there?

I share the same opinion with my '05 with NAV. It seems you're kind of stuck if you have NAV, or am I wrong?
I was not happy with the bose speakers, So I added some alpines. I changed the door speakers and put in a subwoofer. I kept the stock head unit and it sounds so much better now.

Which speakers did you replace and with what Alpines? What amp? Was it worth the change?

My car is a 05, and change them out the right away, so has been awhile. I dont remember which ones they are exactly. Midrange and tweeter in both doors and a sub box behind the seats with an amp for the door speakers and one for the 10 in sub, all alpine. I also disconnected the center speaker in the dash and the aft speakers are not used. I really enjoy listening to music now when I drive, so I do believe it was worth it.

You loose the integration with the HUD, don't you?
