Default new head...

I got this done about a month ago and I love it, much better sound now that I do not have the factory one in per say...had to hide it in my car so the AC would work.

This question is for anyone, but what can someoen like me do to just improve the sound of the the stock system by a small margin, is there anything quick and easy that can be bought to assist in really making the sound better? Stock 08 IS250 with nav. No ML though.

Default JL 13W7 custom trunk

System:
1 JL 13W7 in sealed enclosure / 1 JL 1000/1 Amp / 1 Lightning Audio 1 Farad Cap / David Navone LOC / JL CL-RLC Line attenuator (remote bass ****) / Interior is the 14 speaker Mark Levinson 7.1 surround sound system

Paint finish is the same as the exterior as the car (Smoky Granite Mica) And the grills are not because it's a ported box, they channel the sound from the trunk back in to the vehicle.

Here is a pic of my old setup for ref:



And on with the new under construction, and finished:

Just wondering if people had any new setups. I'd be interested in installing an aftermarket nav unit/screen in my IS250...
