Got a 2018 x5 m sport with the Harman kardon system just put a JL AUDIO 12’ HO wedge with a jl 600 watt amp and it slams. Have a 2002 530i with 2 12’’ digital designs 9900s with a 12,000 watt amp.but destroyed my car.So the W6 gets the job done while still keeping the sound quality 100 Nice set up brotha!!!!
X5M E70 here also, you're exactly what we're designing our next wave of speakers for. Lightweight, stronger motors, and it gives us the ability get more efficiently loud so we don't have to beat the truck up with inefficient big displacement big-power setups just to get the higher output than the various off the shelf chinese subs. Basically bassheads for grownups, we have other cars for our custom 4HP motors and whatnot but it's can be like daily driving a dragster--Reallly fun for about 10% of the time
I have an X5M E70 as well, and I'm going for much bigger bass by going smaller. We'll be using one of our custom built mini subs able to hold more power, and by using a smaller sub with a large motor we have the space to also couple with a more efficient enclosure that will get cleaner, lower, and louder than any sealed box.
I did the same to my car, i feel like i need to swap out the HK amp and get a aftermarket amp to properly time align the subs so it sounds good when the base hits, Time aligning will make the subs sound like they are right under you
You must have a square set up on your truck.. I can’t have a spare because mine is staggered and xdrive. You might have to do a custom enclosure or but the subs in the trunk
Have you consider putting CarPlay module for your X5? Now that we don’t have 3G service in the Navi, I am considering CarPlay for real time traffic. I just wonder if the heads on display will work if I install a module to put CarPlay or do I need to put a new display that it touch tone to support the heads on display. Any recommendations???
There are a few on the market that look very promising. They range from $300-$500 with head unit and everything included. I haven’t done in-depth research because I haven’t decided to go that route yet. But if I ever am ready to do it, I will definitely start the research. My recommendation is join a bmw f15 Facebook group or forum, a lot of people in those have done it already and can give you all the input needed. Also search on here (UA-cam) and there are a few videos of people reviewing them.
bro ive been following ur journey as i just got an x5 msport black on black 20inch black wheels last month , i appreciate the outside mods but would you consider a simple stage 1 tune? i wanna see the difference to the 35i , i feel its power is adequate and fast enough but nothing more, wondering what a tune would do to it
Thank you bro! Hope you are enjoying your x5 as well… as far as performance mods, I’m going to hold off on those for now. I have a 370z nismo that is modded for speed. When ever I get the urge to rip the roads, I hop in the Z lol.
Hey, awesome vid! I’m about to do an install also on my F15… I would let you know how it turns out. You mentioned that the bass is not what you wanted. Do you find the with the lid closed you are getting less bass? If so you can cut some ports in the lid to allow the sound to travel. Just a thought.
Very cool! Doesn’t it rattle the shit out of that floor plate?body rattle would be my concern with adding more. Although I has the Bang and olufson in my X5M.
@@Bubu617 nice! Really don’t wanna cut into the B&O but I’d love to do what you did a float a couple of subs. Don’t need a TON more… but I need more…. Back in the days of where I’d fuck with a car and do it myself I rolled around with deafening shit haha. In this level of car and wisdom mate, it needs to be pro. Thanks for the info! Gonna mirror this
100% with you, love the Harmann. Great channel! Great content! Is yours a 35i? In Germany we are almost forced to drive Diesel cause of the gas vs Diesel price.
Nice mod bro, im picking up my E70 X5M 2day n cant wait to start modding it out😃

That’s awesome!
I feel the same way about the sound in mine but I can’t do much about it with 3rd row seats. Great video.
You might have to do a custom build… or upgrade the subs under the seats
I'm about to buy an 2016 X5 M package. Love what you did with the exhaust and sound. Hope you don't mind if I copy you a bit. loving the setup
I did the same to my car, i feel like i need to swap out the HK amp and get a aftermarket amp to properly time align the subs so it sounds good

i fortunately did not need to adjust anything
My extra space has my spare . So I need to come up with another plan.

Thank you for the heads up!
I will try to research it myself. But if you decide, please post it !
Hey bro, nice setup. I have an f15 with HK system as well. Can you show whag the installer did? Did they use an LOC?
Much appreciated!!
They did wiring behind the panel in the trunk, where the factory amp is located. Exactly what they added or what they did, I’m clueless on… sorry
@@Bubu617 do you know where they ground your amp?
@@kevinramroop6917 use an LC2 I for your line out converter. There should be a ground bolt in the back right by the factory amp
Is the surround touching the lid
Super! I will do this with my new BMW X5 2022, since they offer HiFi sound system! because of chip shortage.

I have a BMW X5 2008 how I can install the amp on which cables???please can you take a picture
Dope set up, how’s the rattle considering it being underneath that trunk space ?
No rattle at all

it was the amp. i switch it out and now they are booming
YEEEEAAAAAHHHH!!!!
Is your setup connected to your factory head unit
Bro yes!!!!

The sound in these trucks is amazing as it is. But the bass is def missing! So yes go for it brotha! Good luck with your project 🙏🏻
Hello from 02126. Great video. I’m going to PM you. I need to ask you a question for my X5.
Thank you 🙏🏻….. yeah no problem
100% with you, love the Harmann.
Great channel! Great content!
Is yours a 35i? In Germany we are almost forced to drive Diesel cause of the gas vs Diesel price.
Thank you! Much appreciated 🙏🏻… yes it’s a 35i xdrive. Diesel is a bit cheaper here as well, but not by much as of now.
@@Bubu617 diesel is 6.2usd/gal and 98oct 7.8usd/gal here in GER
Wow!!! Thts extreme!! Diesel is under $3 usd here last time I checked
Semira bien amigo
Gracias
I have a 2015 BMW X5, I want to add subwoofers.
Do it 💪🏼
hey bro did ever end up getting spacers for your x5 ?
I put on 20mm in the rear
My speaker under the seats they blew so I welded them wires by pass
👀👍🏾🔥
🙏🏻🙏🏻
the more panels and weather tech deck will kill your sound..keep that in mind
I was thinking the same thing. There's not a whole lot of room for the subwoofer to move. I wonder if the subs hit on the panel.
sounds great through it all
does not hit
Skar audio
Hk is absolutely rubbish in f15 services
i guess
What’s the name of them subwoofer boxes…?
Not sure. I think they are generic Best Buy boxes
@@Bubu617 i found them, they are sold out at Best Buy, but I found them on eBay for $60 👍🏾
@@O4L. nice!!!!
