Can't believe this got featured! Thank you so much to everyone for reading and for all the comments, I greatly appreciate it!!! I really wasn't expecting such an overwhelming response.

It should work easily.

Mids and highs seem good to me...
I don't find the bass too low, it is quite adequate for my taste. However, if I had a nice 5/10 band equalizer, I could find tune the bass frequencies better. I like the bass coming from percussions to be more powerful while other bass (EDM type, synthesized or bass guitar) to be relatively less powerful. As it sounds, I can increase bass or decrease bass -- which means, more drum bass = more of all other types of bass

Thanks! Sorry to hear about the HD with your GSD. Mine is still a puppy so he manages to squeeze in, with his head out the window all the while of course!

Thanks. Although the pictures make it look like an AW, it's actually MW.

Which dealer in Seattle did you purchase from?
Did you buy or lease? How did you go about the negotiations?
I am looking to buy a new 328i for 2015 and am considering how far below MSRP a person can get...thanks...
I went to BMW of Seattle first. The sales rep either did not know what MF was, or deliberately refrained from talking about it. So went to Bellevue. Had a good experience there. Details of my deals are here:

Fast forward more than a few years and now i am finally moving into my first M car the F80 M3. I will enjoy it no doubt but I will never forget my first BMW (on my profile) which hooked me on the brand forever. I can feel your passion and dedication and have no doubt you will have a long relationship with Bavaria. Welcome to the club friend.
Thanks!
