![]() ![]() However if I were to recommend something it is the front door tweeter upgrade. I don't think a fully working system would gain a whole lot more in terms of volume. As ctuna wrote, the needle didn't move much. Not sure why I took it but since I have it might as well post it. If the system worked perfectly fine to begin with, I don't think I would have gained a whole lot of volume. ![]() Volume wise, because of my problem, it also moved by a lot. It honestly made a world of difference when it comes to quality. The biggest difference here is the tweeter, you hear those high sounds soooooo much better. This time I replaced the passenger side first, and wanted to listen to the difference, and now my problems with the audio cutting out was completely gone, so the volume can finally go higher without issues. I taped it with double sided tape and I can't hear it rattling. The box fit inside the door with no issues. Just need to set the jumper so it knows it's powered by car radio not by amplifier. That filter box has an in wire that connects to the car, plug and play, then there is a tweeter out and a midrange speaker out. This is where I shouldn't have worried at all. New speaker with tweeter for the front doors, with the original BMW one too. Hardest part is the window corner top right, and I didn't find any "quick way" of doing it, I had to pry a little bit, not too hard though so nothing broke. The tweeters fit in just fine as factory fit, and the replacement was a little bit hard but I managed it in the end. They are original with original part numbers. Here are the door panels I got from Schmiedmann. They don't fall off a cliff when being turned up in volume like the original, hard to explain but I think most audio people will understand. Again I tried with old on the passenger side and new on the driver side, there was a clear difference and I now feel the kick way harder. So the sub upgrade gave it a lot more grunt. I mounted the grills back without spacers and they don't hit it, maybe it is for another model but it isn't clearly indicated. However the grill is mounted with 6 screws under each seat, and they put in a total of 8 spacers with screws. There is a mention of some spacers in the manual, spacers to lift the speaker grill a little higher so the subs don't hit the grill. into the road?Īnyway they didn't clearly indicate it so it took some trial and error but in the end I found out that Match wanted to turn the subs around. Apparently the original ones are mounted face down (Other way around than in picture), so they shoot the music. Match didn't clearly indicate which way they should go. After replacing both the difference was there, but I still couldn't turn up the volume without having the problem in the video, so it wasn't these speakers creating that problem. The difference was not HUGE, but that build-in tweeter could be heard, and quality definitely went up. I faded the music only to the rear and replaced only one speaker. It was extremely easy to do, and the kit came with a small wire with a capacitor, I used that wire, the connectors were all plug and play. I started from the rear and moved up, so this was the first replacement. It was this issue I wanted to fix initially, and while I am at it, might as well replace the whole thing with quality anyways. It is not VERY easy to hear, but I think most people can hear how the speakers suddenly stop playing then starts playing multiple times. First, thank you ctuna, however my worries were for nothing as the kit already had this in mind, I'll explain, but first, I was able to install all speakers today within all the moving mess I have, just sold my house and moving into a temporary apartment so time is limited, which is also why it took me 3 days to reply.Īnyway, first a very short video where you can here the issues of the sound system:
