So basically you take an already sucky stereo and make it suckier. Way to go BMW.

I think that you can start with the MS-8 built in amps, a component set in the front doors, new shallow woofers under the seats (SSMB8 if you can find them on eBay; they are very sensitive and they can sound decent with 20W RMS) and the OEM Individual center speaker.
That should be a very straight forward installation as long as the front speakers are shallow enough for your E92 door panels. The SSMB8 require a .75" spacer that you can make easily from MDF. You could try the Rainbow W 200 X-Plain woofers, but I don't know how they will sound in the OEM enclosure; I would guess that they should sound similar to the SSMB8 as the specs are very similar.
I have the MS-8 and it really sounds great with just the auto-tuning but it really needs a center speaker to sound that great. No BT echo in my setup either, but I'm not running the internal amps, though.
