No rear deck speakers in my 2011 E92 M3?
I swear guys I don't think I have any speakers in the rear deck (back window) in my E92 M3. I have standard HiFi with 2 front tweeters, no rear tweeters and what appears to me is 4 speakers in doors and in the back seat.

You don't see speaker grills on the rear deck when looking through the rear window from outside?

do you think you can retrofit the rear shelf with the speaker cutouts?
i'm thinking for the people who say they can't hear their subs in the trunk (those without the ski hatch) that would be a nice way to port the trunk into the cabin while still keeping the OEM look. so you'd get the rear shelf with the speaker covers but not install speakers, so you have an opening into the trunk? just a thought here is the relevant parts list from REALOEM http://www.realoem.com/bmw/showparts...42&hg=51&fg=40 |

Technic, I read through pages of posts and I am so confused what I want to do. I would like to add more power along with better subs yet fit in the OEM locations...what is a good cost effective route to take. I am a minimalist..

The problem with your E92 is that very few 4" component speakers fit in the front doors as they are too deep (over 40mm). The few that fit without custom install are quite expensive, at $500++ a set. Rear speakers and underseat woofers are no problem as there are several available that fit at reasonable prices and great audio quality. |

From what I read if I use the BSW components it may be hard to go aftermarket with a more powerful amp. BSW wants an arm and a leg for their amplifer and it isn't even available yet. Any thoughts greatly appreciated... Dave

Possible thread jack. What would be the best value route for upgrading the base M3 stereo. Is there such an option. For example, for $300 replace subwofer with XYZ and you will get 70% of what people paying $2,000 are getting...

Wow, You really can learn something new every day here. Thats amazing. I cant believe there are no speakers in the rear deck or the e92.
Is it the same in the e90? D |

Start wil a JL Audio XD600/6 amp for $400, keep the OEM speakers. That's the most inexpensive bang for the buck for the HiFi.

all are a pain in the ass to install you have to mod them to make them fit i just went back to using logic 7 speakers overall , they are the easiest to install and they sound good midrange on them is very good they can't handle a lot of bass so you have to use a high pass i'm using 85hz at 24db for now i prefer using a lower crossover than most people here because it blends better with the underseat subs. |

Hmm, I looked back there and I have speaker grills but cant see if there are speakers. In the doors there is only 1 speaker though. I have to assume there are more elsewhere in the rear?

Technic, would this amp also run the tweeters? I would imagine the tweeters just run off the door speakers witha crossover, am I correct?
Also I notice the amp will run down to 2 ohms, what is the impedance of the OEM amps and speakers. I may just end up running this amp with OEM speakers other than the SW8 subs. Any input appreciated. Also, I imagine that your OEM connectors would come in handy..can I contact you via landline if possible. You can PM me if that is OK. Once again thanks so much. Dave

The XD600/6 is a direct replacement for the OEM HiFi amp with my HiFi harness so all the OEM speakers will be powered without any modifications.
Fully reversible as well. Quote:
