The challenge will be in the review honestly.. my camera will *NOT* do the change justice because of the mic in the camera itself, so much of it comes down to the human ear. I do know that moving from my upgraded E46 to my (stock HK speaker) F32 was a dramatic sound quality downgrade, and just sounds muddy. The previous owner installed *ludicrous* under-seat subs and huge amp upgrade (without anything else *facepalm*) that I will be either modifying or tearing out entirely as I do the other upgrade. I will figure that out once I am into those speakers directly, and everything else is stock.

I will post my review here on the forums, but without expensive measuring mics and gear, its going to come down to opinion and ear of the listener. I cannot WAIT though for this upgrade.. the mids and tweaters are so so so so muddy by comparison to my previous car and the other cars in the garage.
Would be very interested to hear your thoughts vs Bavsound. The Bimmertech is much less money.
