Audio basics e90-f30

djbordie · 01-12-2015, 08:35 AM

So my lease is up on my e90, which I was planning on keeping.
The buyback, current kms, used car pricing its worth it still.

However the deal they want to give me on the f30 is also very appealing.

The only thing I like about the f30 is the HP upgrade and the fuel economy.
that 4 cylinder makes me cringe.

But enough of that, on to the audio.

I have the Technc basic audio upgrade on the e90
sws-8s, dls-r fronts/tweets and the xd600/6

I may remove the goods and replace with stock, i may leave in, etc.

which f30 stereo is the best/easiest to upgrade?

i remember the trouble i went through to code the e90 to hifi to work with the xd600/6.
I want to avoid this potentially...

thank you in advance

The HiFi...same as in the e90. The "base" 6-speaker stereo that USA no longer gets but I think Canada does has the same problems it did in the e90, I think, and the HK is still fiber to the stock amp. The f30 HiFi is 9 speakers if that's all that gets listed on the spec sheet when you are shopping.
