Improve Soundbar Sound Quality - What have you done?
I've now replaced all the speakers and upgraded the stock Infinity AMP to the 77Kick46 upgraded amp... and while the front speakers now rock, the sound bar speakers still aren't sounding how they 'should' and the bass coming out of the sub is still low.
Wondering what others have done... am I down to replacing the HU? I really don't want to b/c I want to keep Sirius... but I suspect the limitations of the HU channels are now my limiting factor.
Let me know what your ideas. Thanks

I don't have the infinity system so I pulled all the speakers and installed some Polk audio speakers and a cheap $50 Walmart amp. I also added some insulation in the sound bar to help with rattle. The difference was amazing.
Sorry I'm sure I'm no help.

Thanks guys - I've stuffed the bar with filler, replaced the speakers, and upgraded the amp. The front speakers are now fantastic. Any way to run the soundbar direct from stock hu?
My next step will be new hu into upgraded 77kick46 amp - bc the wiring harness will work and bc I just spent $200 on the 77kick46 amp. Just need to solve for the soundbar.
