If you put the HK subs in your x5 it would be louder than the b&w because of the resistance being lower… I don't recommend that though. The only upside to increasing the impedance is you could get more power through the tiny gauge wire bmw used

No, as you can see in the photos, I measured the resistance at 5.5ish when the subwoofer is not plugged in, so its pretty accurate. Either way, its even closer to the E70 stock 8ohm, so its a perfect marriage.
I will reinstall the HK sub back into the M2, and try to sell the B&W subs.
