2011 Stereo upgrade

I bought a 2011 x5 with standard stereo. I didnt know enough about these cars but apparently the stereo only has 4x 4" mids and 2x 6.5" woofers and no tweeters with a pathetic amp.

Has anyone upgraded their system to something decent? What sort of components did you go with?

You can checkout BAV Sound for a direct factory replacement.

I've been happy with it, but I have the 14 speaker setup

Not really interested in bav audio as they don't do anything to make the signal reference. The signal on the stereo system is heavily boosted in highs.

Although I did think of possibly getting their speakers and then doing my own amp/ dsp as well as upgrading the under seat woofers
