Ok trying to figure out my stereo upgrading...my speaker sizes are listed in MM but replacement size are listed in inches? And the MM don't translate to the popular inch sizes? Am I missing something?

Stock I have
2) 160mm Sub = 6.29 ~ ?? 6.5"?
2) 160mm Low = 6.29" ~ ??
4) 100mm Mid = 3.9 ~ 4"
2) 25mm High = ~1"

for the 6.29 low you can fit a 6.5 or 6 3/4 size there. They will all fit.

what are you thinking of going with?

BTM · 03-02-2011, 04:57 PM

No fucking clue...and I just got a phone call that makes me think my day just got fucked

UdubBadger · 03-02-2011, 05:01 PM

ouch.

well consider the Focals if you can spare the $. MBQ are nice too obviously. I would tell you to get a nice DSP like an MS8 but they couldn't install mine with my navi so I have no clue how good it is, has gotten some good reviews though.

I endorse the MBQ...had 'em...loved 'em...Boston Acoustics is what I've used since then. Love them too.

I don't believe Boston Acoustics make sizes to fit into the newer BMW's properly. I had a pretty limited selection when I redid my audio.

In highschool I was all about upgrading my cars audio. Now, I rarely if ever thing, man I wish my car was louder. I am getting old.
