Mahindra has nailed most aspects, but one clear gap was the audio system (or lack thereof in this variant). Since I didn’t want to burn a hole in my pocket all at once, I went for a staged upgrade.Stage 1:Swapped the stock speakers for Audison Prima 165 components and added two-layer damping sheets (choosing decent-quality ones). The improvement was quite noticeable – a better soundstage and overall feel. But honestly, the clarity and punch still weren’t where I wanted them to be.Stage 2:Decided to take it up a notch and added an Aura subwoofer along with an Audison SR 4.3 amp. And that really made a difference! The bass feels tight, the mids are cleaner, and the overall setup sounds much more balanced now. Got the work done at RS Car Decors – clean install, professional job, and no complaints on the finish. Yes, pricing is on the premium side, but then again, that’s subjective. For me, it was worth it. If anyone is considering an upgrade for the AX5L, I’d be happy to share more details or feedback! Check out BHPian comments for more insights and information.
