BavSound Ordered - Now I wait patiently
I just placed an order for BavSound Stage 1 with sound deadening kit for my F80 with standard hi-fi. Seeing the size of the magnet of the stock speakers vs BavSound is a no brainer decision. (photo)
BMW makes great performing cars, but our sound system is worst than any Acura/Infiniti. I'm an audiophile and BavSound is praised by thousands who enjoys music. 90% clearer and you don't need an amp replacement. They're running a special 45% off + 10% off coupon. You can contact Cory, he might be able to hook you up with some goodies on top of your purchase.

That's awesome. I agree with them, you shouldn't mess with your EQ too much if you have a good system. Did you get the sound deadening, I heard it will make a huge difference?

Keep in mind a nice pair of Focal K2 runs $1,200. So $700 for 14 high end speakers is pretty awesome. Last edited by JNoSol; 11-24-2014 at 02:22 PM.. |

http://f30.bimmerpost.com/forums/sho...d.php?t=910027 Since you would like to hear first, just place the order / install it / return it within 30 days after shipment (they will even refund your shipping fees). I spoke to the rep, Cory, and he said there's only one person who returned the system in the 10yr being in business. That customer wanted something that costs thousands (amp, sub, speakers overhaul), which he went and did. FYI: I don't work for BavSound or received anything for this post, which would be nice lol. I just did my thorough homework and share it to save everyone the trouble of going through the same process. I read many posts and talked to friends who had BavSound, they all swears by this product and they paid full price before this promo. |

Great info in this thread, thanks! I just ordered the stage 1 package to upgrade my HK system when my car arrives. I already have the HK system in my e92 and definitely think it's harsh (due to the tweeters). I've become accustomed to it over the years, but becoming accustomed to something versus something that sounds natural from the get-go is a big deal in the audio world. The 10% coupon code noted above also worked like a charm!
For those ordering a set, I was quoted a delivery date around February 1 (which should match up nicely with my expected f80 delivery date).

Good deal... Especially with the additional 10% offsetting the sound deadening and install kit! Just ordered one to replace the HK system in my M4 when it arrives in February. Hoping for a sub too...

It will take another 4-6 weeks, since they're on backlog. Based on all the reviews, I'm sure it's as good as advertised. You'll never hear anything bad about BavSound. Here's Keto's review for his HK replacement with BavSound.

The deal continues! Just ordered mine with the extra 10% off last night. Like others, I am disappointed with the sound quality (especially the low end). The HK system in my old 2002 330ci sounds better! I hope these speakers make a great improvement to the sound. I will also add on their sub when it is released.

I upgraded my speakers today. Took 2 hours to replace all speakers except rear left door. I could not take the panel off, so one speaker is still non-bavsound.
Review: The sound quality def. improved! I listen to hip-hop and top 40. The sound is now more punchier with clear mids and higs. Also the bass impeoved for sure! Bavsound is worth it! I'll update more details soon. Also, if anyone can advice me on how to pull the tight rear door panel, that would be great! |

Install is simple, especially with their install tool kit. While you have the door panels off, I do recommend putting some extra sound deadening on; I used a roll of super dynamat, any brand will work. As long as you don't mind the extra weight, of course.
