The dreaded "base audio" upgrade...

[e70msportmia]

Whats up fellas!

A couple of weeks ago I placed my order with BavAuto, they are having a great deal something like 45% off plus an additional 10% off if you get there newsletter. Long story short, I have the PIECE OIF SHIT base audio setup, with NO tweeters and NO front mid speaker.

Done some extensive research and read plenty of reviews and the best deal out there without going really high end and blowing a grand is the BavAuto. The one disappointing fact is they have a 6 to 8 week delivery on the kits. I called in and the guy I spoke to was extremely helpful and it seemed like a decent upgrade.

Sitting tight and waiting for it to arrive, will post up a review once installed!

Happy Holidays everyone...

I ended up just finding a set of logic 7 speakers and it enables me to have tweaters in the OeM location no modifications and it sounds great

This is great to hear. Did you notice a significant improvement? This may be a dumb question, but are the speaker wires already run to the empty tweeter location? Sure don't want to get into the dash!

Also, what model number did you use? There are several different versions of the tweeters on Ebay.

Appreciate the input!

yes there was a great improvement.
the tweeters actually pig tail off the mid speakers.
they have 2 ports, 1 for the audio in, and 1 for tweeter out.
tweeters were very easy to install.
there are a bunch of different part numbers that are all the same logic 7 but out of different cars/ model years.

4x of this 6513 9143121-01 or 65139142512

tweeter part number 2x 65136964012

Bumping this oldie: Anyone recently do anything to improve base audio? I ahd the logic 7 HK system in my e90 and freaking loved it. The basic X5 system just doesnt hold a candle to it. I'm hunting around for a set of the front mid and tweeter L7 speakers, and I guess that'll be my attempt to improve the sound quality. I sure do miss those 9" subs under the front seats though....

New to me, 07 E70 with nav, top hifi. I upgraded front door speakers, and added aftermarket amp between OEM amp and these speakers plus the under seats. So remaining speakers are fed by original amp, not aftermarket one.
Now the PDC, and other chimes are crazy loud! Either due to more efficient speakers and/ or the new amp. Any way to code volume of chimes, or select which speakers the warning bells go to so as to avoid the front door speakers? My idrive unit CCC does not have a volume setting for “Tone” as some other posters have suggested.
