I bought a 2002 BMW 530i, and the factory stereo is horrible.
The web consensus on the BMW boards seems to be:
Keep the Alpine head unit (it is integrated into the car's display and steering wheel switches, speed/volume control, etc.)
Keep the factory speakers.
Replace the BMW amplifier.
Add a sub.
The local shop that appears competent is suggesting the above approach with following package:
Eclipse PA 5422 4 channel amp for the mains
Eclipse PA 4212 2 channel sub amp
Eclipse 87121DVC 12" Woofer
Any feedback on the approach and specifically, Eclipse equipment?
