White Lightning Posted November 10, 2015 Report Posted November 10, 2015 tbh stock BMW 3-way system might already be better than a $150 3-way set...

bmwking Posted November 11, 2015 Author Report Posted November 11, 2015 tbh stock BMW 3-way system might already be better than a $150 3-way set... normally id be inclined to agree with you, however my set is 16 years old and at their limit. i cant get any more volume out of them without distortion, whereas my amp has a lot more to give.
bmwking Posted November 11, 2015 Author Report Posted November 11, 2015 this is what i've sourced out as a first attempt, let me know what you guys think: Peerless 830656 SDS woofer (because of mounting depth restrictions, i wouldve preferred the SLS)https://www.madisoundspeakerstore.com/approx-5-woofers/peerless-830656-5.25-woofer/ Aurasound 2" mid https://www.madisoundspeakerstore.com/approx-2-fullrange/aurasound-nsw2-326-8a-120-2-full-range-with-solder-pads/ Tianle AMT 3/4" tweet https://www.madisoundspeakerstore.com/auto-tweeters/tianle-amt40-4-3/4-amt-car-tweeter-pair/ Thoughts?
dolarbilz Posted November 11, 2015 Report Posted November 11, 2015 How do you plan on running everything?
bmwking Posted November 11, 2015 Author Report Posted November 11, 2015 How do you plan on running everything? well i could either just swap out the individual components and leave it wired the way it is to my excelon 542 4 channel or i could try to find a 3 way crossover right?
dolarbilz Posted November 11, 2015 Report Posted November 11, 2015 I think I would go 2 way passive instead 3 way passive with bunch of mixed matched component.normally 3 ways even 2 way passive crossover are designed for the speakers..not saying it won't work.but you may get a sound you might not like. I'm curious to know how your 4 channel hookec up to the BMW 6 speaker system?

I'm curious to know how your 4 channel hookec up to the BMW 6 speaker system? Actually, i believe theres already a passive 3 way factory bmw crossover at work in the doors. i may have over complicated things by thinking id need a new crossover. I suppose ill just be swapping components then. well i have the base sound system in mine, all i did was run my 8 wire loom from the amp to the radio harness and hit the factory radio output wires and let the rest of the system do the splitting and work.
