Awesome video bro. Your explanation was top notch!!!!!!!!! I just subscribed Wish I found this video earlier. I just bought 4 Alpha One midrange door speakers. Was looking at the tweeters and subwoofers and saw that all of the prices have increased so I'm not buying them anymore.
Being that I was a previous car audio installer and audiophile I want the software to control the active crossover points and level of filtering 6/12/24 db per octave and time alignment. Does the dsp have a 30 band parametric eq? Of course I need two microphones to adjust the eq watching the real time analyzer in the software with pink noise to also to adjust the sound stage on both front seats.
magnet size, neodymium and thus weight is the big difference.Bigger is better for SPL and SQ. I just removed Bmw stereo junk (...) and replaced with Focal. HK means Hong Kong, lol...
@@pj7008 Then it was something else wrong because the products are far superior but all decent audio systems do require correct tuning and installation. We have never had to swap back or thought the factory ones were better
@@CambridgeCarAudio yes we did all that, the originals have a more subwoofer feels, the Audison just sounded like speakers with good lows. But I needed a sub in the boot to compensate.
@@pj7008 I just can’t see that at all. Most people do go for a designated sub as no underseat solution gives much bass but it definitely gives more than the factory ones. I can only comment on our installs and work but I have never had this issue and we do a lot of BMW’s
Dude always love your videos!!!! I am in the process of getting a 2 series convertible. What is the differences in quality between the Audison and Focal series for BMWs and with the package you are showing would you recommend adding in an Audison powered sub??
What amp would I need for a F80 m3 with 12 speakers? Center -front doors - rear doors- rear shelf - under seat subs. I would want an rca output also to run a separate subwoofer
Another awesome video. In the states, we get threatened that swapping out amps etc. may void factory warranty. Do you hear threats like that in the UK?

talked a lot ,,, but didnt say much . speaker weight lol who cares talk about efficiency thats way more important , some of the best systems ive listened to have had alnico magnets , ndyme improves flux density but its not the be all and end all of everything.

@@needleanabolscik5931 can you explain how does weight matter exactly? And if it actually does, doesn't that mean tha sub woofer he replaced was worse than original?
I've always preferred the sound of soft dome tweeters, i find metal dome usually sound a little harsh
Nice input, thank you
@@CambridgeCarAudiothat’s what she said
Can you easily add a boot subwoofer to this system?
Yes, we have options on our website
I think your really good presenter, good information and well explained
Thank you, really appreciate the support 🙏

Thanks for the sub!

HK speakers are aight, just require more power
I had it, and the speakers were great but the under seat subs were crap. Ended up putting the original ones back in.
Did you amp them?
@@CambridgeCarAudio yes with the 8.9 Forza.2 channels bridged to each

Do you use an off the shelve wiring harness to plug into the the Audison amp as the harmon kardon amps use different connections?
Sometimes, depends on the exact system that is in the vehicle.

Audison all the way. Check out some of our packages on our website
What amp would I need for a F80 m3 with 12 speakers?
Center -front doors - rear doors- rear shelf - under seat subs. I would want an rca output also to run a separate subwoofer
Drop us a message on insta or on email and we can send over some options 🙏
@@CambridgeCarAudio pm sent via Instagram
So which one win for speaker system??
Audison :)
Another awesome video. In the states, we get threatened that swapping out amps etc. may void factory warranty. Do you hear threats like that in the UK?
We do sometimes, but we work directly for the manufactures so they normally okay with us
I have a standard g30 speakers howmuch would be cost of upgrading to harmon kardon or audison
We have packed on our website, best to check them out, level 3 and upwards is where the massive difference is
Nice video, would be helpful if you can video before and after so audience can hear the comparison 👍
Thank you, it is something we are trying to do in new videos, make sure you have subscribed so you can see more :)
Can we pay by installments ?
Kind of, please call us so we can talk you through options
Do you guys have a location in London ?
@@shujonahmed4427 hi, just cambridge 🙏
I have an i4 but if you upgrade to HK the sub goes in the trunk. If I don’t upgrade js the default hifi speakers sub Under the driver seat?
Not to worry, we can still Upgrade the i4, it’s just a different set up
i4 is one of the only bmws without underseat subwoofers because of the battery being in the floor. I assume same goes for ix3
Do you do the same upgrade for the 2021 G01 X3
Yeah we do 🙏
the harmon kardon is extremely loud it’s just not that good
So many people complain to us about the volume too on them
Awesome set up, what’s the cost of this upgrade on the 1 series and 2 series
Drop us an email or come by for an audio consultation so we can price this up for you
That sound expensive
How much will this upgrade cost for an 2019 X5?
We have some packages on our website
Why won't anyone make these systems for the G30s?
We do make them for the G30, we have a G31 as our demo car, also we have packages for the G30 on our website 🙏
@@CambridgeCarAudio when I tried to spec it out on your website it said it was not an option. 2018 540i with HK sound.
@@colbyscott9822 www.cambridgecar.audio/bmw-all-series-audio-upgrade-packages
You need to go for Level 4 upwards if you have HK
How much for a 2 series 240i?
Email us or drop a message on Insta and we can send over pricing

@@CambridgeCarAudio although you are totally correct , the base system is garbage ,,
Weight matters everything in speakers, obviously you don’t have any knowledge what you talking about, lighter speakers will be always less quality

Why people keep saying HarmOn instead of HarmAn ?
Noted and changed where we can :)
