I know I have been asking hella people about this, but I want to know I am making the best decision for my car.

Does anyone have any suggestions for new sound system before I go with Bavsound?

Please link suggestions and comments below.

Gotcha. Sorry, wasn’t sure and I’m quite familiar with the R50/52/53 but not newer.

that said, I have had the BavSound system in my E36 and it sounded great, especially for plug and play.

Also looking for options to replace the awful "boominess" of the HK bass in my 2013 r56. Anyone using the bavsound to correct that?

Thanks!

@2013mcs I spoke to a BMW/Mini specialist and he has installed numerous and he said he’s pretty impressed with the system. For me it’ll be $1100 for the whole entire system with Ghost bass including the install.

I’m goin for it later on coming month.
