Poor 318iC music system.

I just got a 318iC. It is a great car with the worst music system. I
have owned an RX7 and an Integra. These car's, that cost less than half
of what the BMWs cost, had much better music system's. The system
seems to have a few problems.

1) FM reception is marginal. The same stations that come in loud and
   clear on the other system's tend to have noise and fade problems on
   this system.

2) Lot of distortion at high volume.

3) Poor Bass.


I wonder if the reception probem is because of the small antenna on the
trunk. Has anyone tried replacing this antenna with a longer one.

Does anyone know if the distortion comes from the system or the
speakers. I'd like to know of any experiences with replacing the
speakers. Will replacing the speakers fix both the distortion and poor
bass?

What are some good speakers out there that will fit this car without
any modifications?

Thanks,

GP
