Is my Fischer PP86 DSP Amp Compatible?

I just bought a new to-me Audiotech Fischer PP86 DSP amp with the PP ISO2 harness and some other cables. It was pulled out of an Audi and the seller was from Australia. It’s going in a 2014 328d with 676 hifi US spec

I’ve been reading about audio upgrades for months and understand that bimmertechs amp was essentially a PP86 DSP w/ a custom harness. I’m also familiar with the Audiotech MatchUp7 etc…

My plan was to buy a lightly used pp86 or match up7 amp, grab a tecnic harness, cut the pp- ios2, wire it up, and install.

It’s being suggested to me that my amp might not be compatible with my car and appears to be designed for euro spec base audio. Not 676.

How can I confirm if the amp is 676 compatible?

A PP86 DSP is a PP86 DSP, right???

AFAIK 86DSP is for base audio,
7BMW or 7DSP is for HiFi.
