One more question. I know the base system has no tweeters but are there wires in place that I can just plug in to or will I have to access the back of the stereo?

Does this system retrofit the "Premium Sound" speakers?

Short period of time. Can't say for certain but MAX 2 weeks. Probably through end of Feb.

I can say this. You can get a system and have 30 days to use our guarantee. Send it back if you like the stock system. No worries... we even provide the label

We include that wiring to plug and play Your system sends full range out and to your 4" drivers. Our wiring creates the separation for a 2 way component system. That is the basic explanation.

The wiring has inline crossover to properly handle the new component system

I assume by Premium you mean Logic7? And you quoted it because it is not so premium? haha

Has anyone with the Premium Sound installed this system yet? If so, can we get a review of the sound quality improvement?

2008 4.8 X5 came with 12 speakers system as base (10 + 2 subs). Does your system cover all 10 speakers (5 mid and 5 tweeters)?

Also, you mentioned that having tweeters make a HUGE difference. Since my system already has tweeters, should I expect somewhat less benefit from your system?

Yes, I would like to know this as well. Did the price for this also go up? The website said +100 for the logic7 (which Halston confirmed is the premium sound).

I would like to get this, but I want to see an independent review.

Yes. We replace all interior drivers, including center channel if equipped. So everything except the under seat subwoofers.

Roundel Magazine did a review. One of their writers. He bought one himself and installed it and decided to write about it

Halston is it possible to add the center speaker to the 2011 base system? Are you guys still working on amp upgrades?

No, actually, I mean "Premium Sound" because that's what BMW calls it on my '10 X5d. Now, maybe you can answer my question... does your Stage 1 system retrofit my system?
