Read the threads on the harness in the 2Addicts forum. Coding is not an ideal solution if you're after more clear audio. The decreased bass responsiveness is a far more desirable tradeoff.
To reitierate: the underseat 'subs' are NOT subs; they are mid-bass drivers that are tasked to handle some bass frequencies. What many call 'bass' is actually not true bass (frequencies under roughly 175Hz); it is mid-bass, which extends to about 400Hz. The responsiveness issue relates to the capability of the underseat drivers to reproduce bass, which they aren't primarily designed to do - and are not powered sufficiently to do anyway.
If you really, really like true bass (i.e., you listen to hip hop or club music, which are two genres that take advantage of the low end), the HK in the M2 wouldn't have impressed you anyway because the system is not designed or powered to go that low. If you really want a system that can go that low, a dedicated sub with a dedicated amp is the ONLY option for you.
