I can confirm the BMW Audison K4E's fit perfectly like OEM in the doors and the tweeters click in place of the JBL's like OEM too. The crossover sits perfectly behind the door panels. They sounds very clear. Tweeters are set to -3dbI hope the ones I ordered are correct??
The pictures that I took shows the two holes line up perfectly but the top hole is off. The picture was with the OEM door speakers. I have not at this stage bothered with the rears. Rears are just for fill. You could get away with keeping them stock and it's a huge cost to replace those with little gain. iMO. They hardly work now with the JBL system. I will connect them if I pull the trigger on the mobridge amplifier..who knows I may get excited and replace them. Not sure about centre speaker yet either. They all supposed to match in theory.
I just hope the "E's" are correct because the "M's" don't fit.
That setup sounds fantastic. I am certain it will turn out well. I am keen to see how they rebuild the rear subwoofer section. Please send photos.Glad to hear @dazza,
So I needed up visiting my local audio shop for a consultation.
Based off of what we discussed we will be doing the following:
Mobridge MOST25
Center channel delete
Focal K2's (ES 100 K) in front. Installed as a 2-way active setup utilizing the first 4 channels of the amp.
Stock rears on channels 5&6. At time of tuning it will be decided to have them playing or not.
Focal Flax Evo 8" subs (P20 FE) on the 9th ch @2-ohms. Oem enclosure will be removed and a custom backfiring ported enclosure will be built.
FYI, I was able to get my order through for one of these, through PM on this forum. $1000, $70 shipping to the US (from Australia). They shipped Thursday or Friday, and I received it this past Monday.I sent a query to Mobridge USA hoping to order the amplifier. No reply. Are they really selling for $1000 as posted?
Sounds amazing. Definitely can't wait to hear your thoughts on running the MW172 without a dedicated sub. I haven't had a proper sub in probably 15 years, so I bet that would really be plenty for me... I've always been a fan of Dynaudio, they're so overengineered. I'd imagine those MW172s will do a great job covering the range. Fingers crossed!So I have the Focal K2 in the door and the front center. Focal Access in the rear surround. Putting Dynaudio MW172 in the rear with LOTS of damping and some fill. Will then have a separate removable subwoofer if necessary. Also ordered the Mobridge unit. At least for now, will be using the Focal passive crossovers. Mobridge crossovers will be between the Focal units, the Dynaudio woofers and the subwoofer if necessary.
Sounds like a really amazing build! The Focal Access that you have is coaxial? if so what will you do for the tweeters in the back? Also are you using the mObridge amp to power it all?So I have the Focal K2 in the door and the front center. Focal Access in the rear surround.
