Hi guys, initially I ordered 10" match subwoofer but then I decided to measure the trunk of my F33 and it seems it's not possible to open the roof with this sub in the trunk so I canceled the order and bought 8" instead. Unfortunately, it has only one speaker with 4 coils and it's really tiny. I received the sub today and connected it. Initially, I just connected it instead of underseat woofers/central speaker and was not impressed at all. In general I still think that this subwoofer is crap but it is the only one plag'n'play option for lazy people...
In order to connect the sub as addition to front speakers I had to reconnect the cables in harness, it's not that difficult if you know how to use youtube. Pin diagrams provided above helped me a lot but still I had to guess some things (e.g. left/right woofer in small connector). At the moment I have front speakers and match 8" subwoofer connected to match 86 amp, after some configuration I was able to get relatively nice sound, there is no deep bass of course but there is some real punch (bass for me means that my eyeballs are shaking, punch is more a kidney kick from the back). In general, considering the size of the sub, I'm almost happy. Tomorrow I plan to buy proper power cable/fuse so this little amp can show its full potential. To be honest, this plag'n'play power connection sucks. This is quite obvious and I would recommend a separate power cable even without sub, I'm sure it will make a difference. I will provide my final review a bit later when power cables are in place, maybe some config update will be needed afterwards. Thank you guys, your input was really helpful! Cheers from Munich, Alex |

Does anyone know if the model made for the f3x is the same as the f8x?
Sorry if this has been answered before, but I've been searching and cant find a solid answer. Looking to put one in my m3 taken from a 4 series. Both are hifi systems. |

So I have the bav stage 1 and bav subs and I added an external sub. I’m using a JL Audio JX 500/1 running a 10” Alpine type R. I don’t have an F30 but an F25 but there aren’t many f25 tunes out there. The guy who installed my equipment got the sub to work through the DSP but he tuned it horribly. I asked him how he got the sub to work and he said he just added the front r and front L to the input section under IO is that right? I can’t get the sub back on now that I went back to the original tune.Also he has the bass boost on the external amp all the way up and the frequency on 200. Any help is appreciated

You should also update to version 4.30b or at very least 4.25b.

6spd 4.30b would not work on my F25 I haven’t tried 4.25b but I will now. It’s weird when I mute my external sub which is the line input the front left speakers mute as well ! WTH? Here is a screenshot of the IO

1. How do you get the external sub to turn on in the IO? 2. Should I have my bass boost all the way off on my external JL Audio Sub Amp? 3. Should the external JL audio amp be set at 200 hz? Here are the two tunes Im using : Thank you so much Last edited by tmac01; 08-15-2018 at 07:48 PM.. Reason: Left out file |

This part appears ok. Where is it that you're trying to mute ? On the main page selecting a single channel ?

Theoretically it should be on. Preferably, yes. Crossover should be off since the DSP would control that anyway.

No you will not. Even if you did (due to updating) option is there to save and you already have the file saved on your PC so easy enough to load again.

If off or full phase isn't an option then yes the highest available.

I placed my order for a bimmertech amp today. The stock system is pretty phenomenal in my opinion, I could just use some more volume out of it. I’ll be posting my unbiased opinion on the change once I get it installed.

Hi - do you leave a cord/cable hooked up to the amp in a location that is easily accessible for tuning, or do you take off the left-side panel in the trunk every time you want to adjust the DSP settings?
