Location/Quantity of speakers

SHKM8 · 04-09-2018, 04:00 AM

Hi,

I have an Australian 2017 X1 without the H/K audio. The spec/brochure says it comes with 5 speakers, at 100W. I found 4 speakers (1 in each door), plus two more subs under the front two seats.

Either the subs don't count as speakers and there's another speaker that I haven't found, or the spec-guide/brochure is wrong.

Thoughts?

Anyone know where the fifth speaker is cheekily hiding?

Center of dash?

Nah. The speaker is cunning.

As far as I know, subs are mono connected. They are serial wired 2 ohm speakers.

Stereo (BMW name) system has 6 speakers (4 mids and 2 woofers, woofers connected in parallel to the front mids) powered by the iDrive 4ch outputs of 25W each, no external OEM amp.

This site explain some of the BMW audio systems. Hope that will help.
In Canada, the standard is "HiFi" system.

That page isn't correct for 2016 USA models of F48. I've got stock audio in and I have a center channel but don't have HK audio (no door tweeters ..).
