I have the BMW 328I 1996 with stock headunit/6CDchanger. So far the only upgrade done is replace the rear speakers (4" with new 4"). Sounds better but not much!
What is the next best upgrade:
1. Replace headunit (but what headunit works with factory CD changer??) $200+
2. Replace OEM amp in trunk with OEM Harman Kardon AMP? $75
3. Replace OEM amp in trunk with aftermarket 6 channel amp? $200+

I have a 1996 320i fitted with a Kenwood Head unit, Kenwood speakers all round, 10 CD stacker in the boot and Four channel Blauplunt class A amp running the speakers.
The sound is real sharp, nice and clear etc, no distortion, but there is stuff all sound in the lowwer/deeper range. Have been talking to the audio specialist and he said I need to fit a sub in the boot ported to the car. Says that it will sound sweet if I do that.
The cars are so well sound deadened, that you loss all the bass - the reason you need to port the sub into the passenger cabin.
So planning on getting a sub fitted soon.
