As far as I know there is no plug nad play upgrade solution for the HK amp.

If you had HiFi system, you could upgrade to Bavsound or Audiotec Fischer MatchUp 7DSP amp that totals 1300 Watts.

Is that why it sounds so low ? :/ I couldn't figure out what it was.

Audiotec Fischer Match Up 7
You need an additional harness as you have HK

See here: https://g20.bimmerpost.com/forums/sh....php?t=1737016

It will make one kick ass system. No need to replace any other drivers unless you want to.

Props to Encanto

As far as I know this amp will not work with Harman Kardon amp. Only with HiFi amp.

Hi guys, Audiotech Fischer make a Match 10 DSP and RAM Harness which will sort of help. I say sort off, because in theory it will ensure the speakers sound much better and you can customize the sound... however its a little low on power for the bass drivers which are 8ohm, so you might want to upgrade these. I havent taken the plunge yet but its the solution that seems logical from a numbers point of view.
