there is no logic in applying numbers to a subjective measurement. They are a great improvement. I am hearing all sorts of details in voices and instruments I was not hearing before. Now I also realize how crappy the Sirius feed really is, it pales in comparison to high bit rate MP3s and uncompressed CDs. the bsw kit really opens the sound system up.

Now Halston, when are you going to get a kit for the E65s? are the speakers any different than the E60?
This is also a true aspect. One thing good systems always do is have a neutral impact on the source. If your source is recorded well it will sound oustanding. But if you have highly compressed music, it will show those flaws and you will hear them.

This is how you get the golden ear. Neutral systems are hard to come by.

oh God, get those things out of here. Talk about listening fatigue.

They accentuate the treble way too much IMO.

Vandersteen Audio is the most neutral speaker I have found.

Their Model 5a sigs are seriously the best speaker I have ever listened to. Ive listened to a lot.

Also there is a nice subsection for vendor group buys in the classifieds where you could state your terms and that way we can see how wants to buy.
As noted in my first post. We would be interested in being contacted on how to sponsor the forums. That way with the cost in mind we can see how feasible that would be.

Also Instructions for Your-Do-It-Yourselfer


or a Ball Park Cost for our local Tweeter Sound Shop here on the east coast would help?

Thanks Keep it rolling!
Instructions can be downloaded right off our site

Read above and the reviews linked in my previous post. We have packages for all 5 series back to the e34

Anywhere from 2-4 hours for a DIYer. It can easily be done DIY.

Shop is going to be 2-3 hours of labor. We charge 150 which is 2 hours.

I haven't quite been able to wrap my head around the idea that everyone jumped on him for writing a review. Did you read what I posted earlier?

1. Brian is a repeat CUSTOMER of BSW.
2. Brian offered to post reviews
3. Brian does not work, is not paid and has zero connection to BMW except as a customer


Why would that be 'calling him out'?

Members on this site are just a bit skittish at the moment is all. We have had a number of bad vendors lately taking advantage of the population here via scams...

Everyone is just looking out for one another and if it seems a bit out of place, everyone speaks their minds. Right or wrong. In this instance wrong, but I like what everyone's trying to do for each other....
