There is only so much that the old paper and foam technology can deliver.
In combination with the new fidelity of a modern head unit, the E53 is my favorite ride simply for audio experience for me.
I also fitted a DSP subwoofer into the right rear factory location and power it with a separate amp and have a very decent bass boost.
The loss of OBC functionality was quickly restored with the use of the BMW-IBUS app running off the Android head unit.
I do not miss the multi disc changer or old school GPS computer OEM components.

So the stock speakers are crap, copy.. There goes another what, $500..
How many channels are you running and what are you amping with?
The X5 has tweets, mids, mid bass, and sub + the rear doors.. Are you running all of these with proper Xovers/processing or just like runing a pair of components off of your HU amp? Using the BMW amp?
