Lightbulb Group Buy: Bavarian SoundWerks Speaker Upgrades for Z4 Coupes and Roadsters

BIMMERPOST / Classifieds
Asking Price:
None

Item Interest
While I'm not an audiophile in ths strictest sense, I read the complaints about the OEM system, especially the Premium Sound. Even before I drove my Z4 home I had sent an email to BSW to see if they had a ready date. They told me I could phone in and place a pre-order. When I asked about organizing a group buy Halston at BSW replied right away:

Quote:
We should have them on pre-order that we could get a group buy together for 420-450 with free shipping. That would be a pretty significant discount. Would you like to organize this?
I asked if there would be different packages for the hi-fi and base systems:
Quote:
We will have packages for Base, HiFi and Logic7(Premium Sound).
Their website lists the system price at estimated $399, but given the price upgrades on the other systems I'm assuming the premium sound is going to be more. Assumng it's a good deal I'd like to get a head count of those "interested" and those ready to buy. I'm ready to buy at $450 because I think the sound of my premium system stinks.

So please respond with the following:
1) Interested OR Ready to buy
2) What sound system you have: Base, HiFi or Premium

In the meantime Halston at BSW is getting together some spec sheets and more detailed information for the individual upgrades. Please be serious about being ready to buy since I want to get some realistic numbers back to BSW, and not several "maybes".
I'll total up the counts and see what kind of deal we can get from BSW.

I haven't been following the electronics or sound threads lately...was there a thread with some specifics on this company and upgrades? I'm not questioning you and appreciate your willingness to get this off the ground, but I need to know more about the company, the upgrades, expected results, etc. to make an informed decision.

I'm interested as well, but would like some more details. I have a 06 M Coupe w/ HIFI SYSTEM PROFESSIONAL (S677A)

alvinli217, there is a thread on here ( http://www.zpost.com/forums/showthread.php?t=302570 ) which has a csv file with all the NA M production information. You should be able to find your car on the list and see what it came with from the factory.

No problem. I only learned about the company once I started reading the complaints about Z sound systems. I googled them and read some of their packages on other bimmer forums. Here's their website:

http://bavariansoundwerks.com/

There was another forum member who's car served as the guinea pig, they've been working on getting an upgrade package into production for some time now. I'm excited!

Thanks for this. I know having DSP means you have the Premium system, I'm not sure what the difference is between hi-fi and base. It seems BSW will have to cover the three different packages.

Bumping this to the top:

I'm going to tally all of those interested and "ready to buy" and send the totals to BSW. If you're interested or ready to buy please respond here.

Thanks!
