F30+Bavsound amp +Powered Sub in trnk ?
My apologies if someone has already covered this in the forums as I've been reading through them for hours, with no luck in finding anyone with this particular setup. I currently have the factory HiFi speakers in my F30 with a Bavsound Revenant amplifier. While the amp upgrade has made an astonishing difference in sound quality, I'm interested in adding an enclosed powered subwoofer in the trunk. I'm currently looking at a Rockford Fosgate Punch Single 12" 300W and a JL Audio 8" powered subwoofer. My question is- As someone with limited install experience, will this be an easy DIY install? Am I missing a thread that already addresses this? If so, my apologies- I could not find it. Any help in what I should know before going forward with subwoofer purchase would be appreciated.
Thanks, J. Clarke Last edited by jodyc256; 12-20-2020 at 12:59 PM.. |

Before you get the sub, better check with Bavsound on the amp configuration profile. As per my understanding, Revenant amp is based on UP 7BMW but the profile is password protected and can't be modified by end user. You want to check if they have a profile with active sub output enable.

Yes. The tune file is where you set the configuration of the subwoofer. Without access to modify the tune file, I don't see how you can enable sub channel out for active subwoofer and set the proper crossover.

The sub-out on the Revenant is a non-adjustable LPF set to 80 Hz. No need to modify the tune.

You mean the sub out for Revenant is always active set to 80hz LPF? Do you know it's 2nd order or 4th order? I just wonder how OP going to blend in an extra subwoofer with existing underseat sub.

I have no direct knowledge of its inner workings, but I'm sure the output to the RCA jack on the amp is controlled by the DSP like all of the other outputs.
