E82 1-series coupe with Stereo
The BMW “Stereo” sound system
The Stereo system has six speakers, no amplifier, and a heavily-processed “deck-power” signal coming out of the head unit. The tweeters are missing. The underseat 8″ speaker provisions have 6″ speakers hot-glued into them. It’s not even “mid-fi”, it’s so bad – but great results are possible. A systems approach is required.
Musicar Certified sound systems upgrade the most important speakers, as well as the amplification. The stock head unit is retained and all functions work just as before. All the new gear is plug-in and bolt-on. The output signal processing is corrected.Musicar Certified Sound systems for E82 1-Series coupe with Stereo
