I appreciate that. Thank you!

Thank you!

Right on man! Great minds think alike and install the same mods 🤣

​@Fritz Ramos how has your amp been holding up how you like it?

@@jg_media9hey man. Will this also improve the HIFI system in my 2018 430i gran coupe? Or should I just replace the speakers

I've seen on forums that unfortunately this is quite common of the stock subs to blow if listing to music to high or having the EQ set to high. Some said they stopped working suddenly but then started working again after the car was shut off for some time. Seems like BMW is aware of this issue as well.

Maybe this video can help you, kzfaq.info/get/bejne/nsxmq9tl3a7XqWw.html

Bro 1k whaaaaaat!? Nah.

Huge pass. I looked at them. Reviews a meh. Price is a travesty 😂.

Audison is better or go with kicker

It’s expensive for sure but 6 channel amps are expensive period and this one is plug and play.. if you try to put a new amp into a bmw for the speakers (which are underpowered in every sound option) you need a wiring harness that you could only get from one dude within a bmw blog. The harness for sale on different sites didn’t work. I did a complete speaker upgrade on my 2009 335xi 4 door. The high speaker setup hasn’t changed much since then..but what I learned is that changing the speakers didn’t improve the sound.. you can add bass but there was never any mids.. and no matter what you did there was never going to be mids. It’s the sound design period. So, having said that.. if you want a lot more umph to your sound just get the amp.. it’s brings the sound a step up for sure

I agree with you but what did you end up going with. Plus for the money you would spend on the speakers and amplifier in total. You can get away better sound system going to an audio shop. What I mean by that is they can customize it to what you listen to and stuff.

@@xNickerishx Yeh. But in the end, I got myself an F10 530d with B&O audio system 🤣

Vibe makes a "powerbox" amplifier with plug & play harness to bmws, including your base audio bmw. It is not as powerful as this one though.

i am currrently looking into that for my e60 have you managed to find an answer?

Exactly the same? Dam these mf amps are so pricey.

Also, terrible customer service....

I have the HK and it's garbage, hence why I'm here watching this video 😅 the amp has been reduced in power compared to previous generations of cars, so HK is no longer premium. The new RAM module means compatibility is a nightmare too. Bimmertechs new Up10 is the only one capable, and that plus a boot sub is going to set me back roughly £2k. The HK is that crap that I'm now just figuring out how to make the spend work - I can't cope with it anymore.

@@matthale5526 I have an M340 with the H/K system; I disagree that’s it’s garbage. I recently added a LOC and mono amp with a sub in the trunk; it made a tremendous difference because now I don’t have to push the under seat mid base drivers to get true range and the equalizer allows me to tune the system overall. I spent $600.00. I also just bought a used 228 that came with the base HiFi system; that system is crap. So, I replaced the amp with a match-up 7BMW and a sub amp with a JBL dual 10 box in the trunk and had it professionally tuned. That upgrade cost about $3,700.00 and it is the best sounding car stereo I’ve ever had and I’ve had many/heard many. The secrete is in the tuning. So, with both systems, my m340 sounds 80-90% as good as my tuned car; the difference is the sound stage and clarity that is impeded by the center channel. The question is how much do you want to spend and how important is quality sound for the price.
