Thanks for the info guys,
I've got the base audio system and have been waiting for BSW to finish this for our cars for 2 years, while I was waiting, I added a JL Audio amp and 8" sub. Yes, it fills in the missing low-end bass, but it can't and doesn't help the low quality speakers that BMW chose for our 55 - 70k autos. Sounds like this will do the trick....hopefully!
Could you post details on your AMP upgrade, as well as the sub upgrade. I assume you put in in the trunk. Is there a replacement sub that sounds better?
Thanks,

azbimmer/bjsbuds - i've got a few pics on my work PC and will post them tomorrow. I had a
friend of mine install the the amp/sub, so I can't give you too many wiring details.
I ran the sub volume knob into the passenger compartment and up into the armrest storage.
I bought the 8" sub already mounted in a rectangular carpeted box.

Pictures will speak for themselves, so i'll hold off until then.
