Whats a good shop near fortlee/NYC area that does speaker/audio upgrades 4 BMW?

ok so as everyone knows, the 2010 LCI models got nothing in the audio department. I heard there is no amp and my sound cracks when I bump it too loud. I wanted to upgrade my sound system. If I knew it was this bad I would have shelled to upgrade the audio option. I heard some members mention an Alpine upgrade but am not too familiar with what that includes. Anyway, I need your opinions on a good sound shop in the NY/NJ area that would upgrade the sound system for a reasonable price. thx

No one knows what their doing or going to take the time and care on your car that your going to expect IMO.

Are there any good DYIs to update the lci stock system that won't b too difficult...a shop called sound concepts in rockland county told me I would need a processor and would end up spending around 2-3Gs for a good upgrade..that's out of my budget

Do tell. I'm looking to fit a decent sub in my car since the logic7s lack in the lows department.

Pretty sure you don't need a processor for the base system in lci models.

If the signal is analog, which is usually the case with base, the just get a good 4 channel amp to run the door/rear deck speakers and a 2 channel to run the underseats...not sure if there are underseats in the base system though.

If you piece together a system, I can help install.
