Sound quite poor

Having just bought an S TYPE R i was pretty disappointed with the quality of the sound system. Am i missing some option on the control system, or is there hardly any bass sound ?

I sold an M3 Evo for this car, and can't help making comparisons, and while i am happy overall, the cound system in the M3 was much better.

You will find that sub frequencies are normally dialled out by the headunit. The idea behind this is that Jaguar owners do not like rattles, so to stop the rattles Jaguar have kindly removed the freequencies that would cause this i.e low mid and sub frequencies.

This can be rectified by adding a JL Audio Clean Sweep system along with a seperate amp and sub. That will put the sub back into the system.

Talk to someone like the Sound Gallery in high wycombe. They are one of the best car audio installers in the country and very friendly people.

you will spend alot of money with jaguar for very little back. All they will do is add std bits to the system which are all geared to do the same thing - remove bass.
