I’d love to do a comparison of the Match amps and 2 ohm Earthquake subs, or something similar. If only I could reuse my Integral Audio system from my F80..

Same here.
I loved the IA system on my M2C... had to sell it after enjoying it for only a few months when I sold the car.

Looking at the options on bass myself.. Adding just a trunk sub is prob the best cheap route, since you're adding 300 watts for the same price as the extra ~80W to each underseat sub w a 2 channel in series.

Doesn't seem anyone has swapped between setups, worth almost 2x the price to beef up underseats and add a trunk sub? At that point might as well go for the Match, since you can add bass as needed without having to swap gear, and you have the DSP for fine tuning.

$785 - Technic harness, 300W trunk sub/amp
$785 - Technic harness, 2ch ACM-2.300, 2x SWS-8Xi underseat 150W each
$1400 - Technic harness, 3ch XD500/3v2, 2x SWS-8Xi underseat 100W each, 300W trunk sub

$1255 - Match Up 10 DSP, PP BMW 1.9RAM-HK
$1525 - Match Up 10 DSP, PP BMW 1.9RAM-HK, 2x SWS-8Xi underseat 160W each
$1880 - Match Up 10 DSP, PP BMW 1.9RAM-HK, 300W trunk sub/amp
$2150 - Match Up 10 DSP, PP BMW 1.9RAM-HK, 300W trunk sub/amp, 2x SWS-8Xi underseat 160W each

Quick follow up. I would need to purchase two of these to install in series with the 2 OEM amps?

Match by Audiotec Fischer UP 10DSP & PP BMW 1.9RAM-HK fits Harmon Kardon BMW 19+

Clearly, i'll have an audio shop perform the install. My M3 should arrive at dealer within 2 weeks.

Hey @Technic, how come you are denying bass for Australians…. Nah, seriously though, if anyone in the US able to help an Aussie out, order the Technic harness with LOC for my 2023 G80, then ship it to Australia, I would be happy to pay!

Or Technic, please make an exception… snail mail is fine, just no one in Aus produces a plug and play solustion for the G80. Have PayPal, will pay for your extra trouble.

Thanks again. Nathan.

Australia Postal Service is not that good, sorry.

Ha ha never had a problem before? You will be using a US carrier anyway, so not sure why this would even matter?

[Nath-G80]

Ok, seams a PnP option is out of the question for me, so I am just going to have to tap into the loom myself.

Can Technic, (or anyone), please show me a picture of the Ram loom, pointing out the sub signal wires I need to tap, to run to a LOC.

Thank you very much.

Nathan.

Hey mate, I’m in USA for a few weeks next week. Can bring something small back if you need.

[Nath-G80]

Thanks BzsBimmer, but they won’t ship it to Australia unfortunately.

Bgalway, you are a legend for offering! Thank you, but to get the item to you from Technic, while you are likely on the move enjoying a holiday, is way to much to ask!

I’ll be able to tap into the loom, been playing with 12v systems for years, was just hoping for the easy option, or even a cheat code, (picture) from another G8X member who has walked the path before me to make sure I get it right the first time.

Thanks again! Nathan.

Hey,
Did you install in the end?
Are you able to tell me which wires and where you tapped in as have been down the same route as you with Technic
I’m wanted to add powered sub in boot just not sure which wires to tap into.
Don’t really need the harness it’s simple enough once you know what wires
Much appreciated
