FS: Complete e90 HiFi Audio Upgrade

Up for sale is a complete audio package upgrade for a HiFi e90. I had these in my car for 2 months, but I ended up trading in my car for an e92 335i.

Looking to get $1100 shipped or $1000 picked up with Paypal fees OBO

The installation was completed by Technic as seen in this thread:

This is a great buy for anyone looking to upgrade their base audio past Logic 7 quality!

Result:

-Again, a relatively simple upgrade on the money that delivers a more satisfying, clearer, higher volume, bassy sound than any of the optional OEM systems. From radio stations to iPod the SQ increase is instantly noticiable. You know that the MS-8 is doing its job of focusing the front stage to the driver when customers start simply smiling and nodding their heads to the beat of the music, just after calibration.

VP Electricity sub enclosure impresses just by installing it above the battery even before connecting it to the amp. The integration is simply OEM... and then it is connected to the system. The ID10 sub bass is clean, heard and felt in the cabin without any rattles -or that nasty flappiness of some subs that take some work and tuning to make it right-, seemlessly blending with the underseat woofers midbass.

By dedicating the OEM woofers to just midbass above 60Hz and providing 5 times their OEM power their bass impact is to the level of a much, much nicer aftermarket shallow woofer. Definitely their 2ohms reting and their sensitivity (they also sound great with just the MS-8 power) make these woofers very power efficient and great midbass drivers.

The combination of the R4 and the Slick 4 in the front provides a much improved front stage over the OEM speakers. The OEM speakers actually sound much better when powered by the MS-8 -this is the best part of the upgrade, as customers are shown how the OEM speakers sound with the MS-8 first and then with the R4 replacing them. The improvement is a much nicer, cleaner and clearer sounding front stage with the R4, both in midbass and high response (the silk tweeters are nicer by much over the OEM). The Slick 4 does not disappoints as a center speaker for its price, however it sounds better when the front stage have the same load (4ohms center and front speakers) than with the OEM speakers (2ohms). The MS-8 power is double for the 2ohm loads and it can be felt thru the center speaker (lower volume, but can be adjusted).

And as always... a 100% reversible install.
This package includes:
- DLS R4 with tweeters
- Vibe Slick 4
- VP Electricity ID10 sub with enclosure
- JBL MS8
- JL XD400/4
- Technic Harness


Here are pictures of all components..
