With my recent purchase of a 2006 Odyssey with the excellent DVD system, I have become painfully reminded of how low the fidelity is on my all-too-stock 1999 540's "Business" non-DSP system. No highs and no lows, yet it isn't Bose! As poorly as the OEM BMW unit sounds, and despite the fact I have a wonderful Pioneer KEH-4400 head unit just sitting in a box in my garage, I'd rather not monkey with the BMW's OEM head unit, mostly because of its integration with the OBC.
So I ordered speakers today:
1) Infinity Basslink subwoofer
2) Infinity Reference 5-1/4" Component speakers for the front doors.
Bought them from my trusted Crutchfield source, from their Scratch-N-Dent inventory, which is how I usually buy from Crutchfield (you get full manufacturer-certified warranty, but at a lower price than Crutchfield's usual gouge).
I am hopeful that the front Infinity speakers will brighten up the highs a lot and that the Basslink will add "just enough" bass, cleanly, and without losing too much trunk space. I figure the Basslink is easy enough to move to my next car when/if it's ever time to sell the 540.
Anyone else upgrade with these speakers? I know someone once raved about Boston Acoustic speakers, but they were too expensive for my budget....
