Hmm Quick possibility for MINI owners to get more sound out of their Head Units
First off do the Hi-Fi and normal audio systems power any speakers off the head unit amp?
If they do, a quick addon for better sound can be do disconnect the 12volt power supply to the head unit and run it directly to the battery with a inline fuse.
Something like
Just cut one end, attach with a butt connector to your head unit, the other end with a terminal to the battery...
And viola...better sound quality.

The non-HiFi powers the speakers off the headunit, and the HiFi doesn't (seperate amp).
Don't mean to poop on your idea, but I doubt powering the HU directly off the better will produce "better" sound. I know that the HU has other functions that would make leaving the factory wiring alone a much better option.

This one isn't upgraded though. The basic radio and HiFi are the same HU. The point I'm trying to make is that this isn't a standard DIN head unit. It's integrated, with other functions. You can program the digital display on the tach through the radio, for example.
