HK Swap with Audison Prima APBMW lineup

fortysecond · 12-30-2022, 01:32 PM

Hi everyone!
The car was delivered!

I'm wondering, if there's anyone swapped HK / HiFi system speakers with Audison options, available specially for BMW/MINI?

I'm talking specifically about:
APBMW K4E set (midrange / tweeter) for front doors
https://www.audison.eu/products/apbmw-k4e/

APBMW K4M set (midrange / tweeter) for rear shelf
https://www.audison.eu/products/apbmw-k4m/

Do you mind sharing your opinion if you exist =)?

Since nobody replied. I actually tried Audison sets that Mentioned above.

Long story short there's pretty much no difference with HK door speakers. I installed speakers (woofers and tweeters in door trims and listened to many lossless tracks on both Audison and HK.

The difference is at atomic level - maybe some more details present in Audison speakers in Jazz or pop tracks with highs (high frequencies) but on the other end - HK gives more details in vocal or saxophone parts (mid range).

Again - to my ear that was absolutely not enough to justify the price of almost 500 USD price paid for two woofers and two tweeters.
