i4 AI-Sonic Musway subwoofer upgrade kit
Full DIY kit for upgrading i4 Harman Kardon subwoofer
Best and suitable products for upgrading BMW i4 Harman Kardon trunk woofer. Tested and working!
i4 Harman Kardon includes bmw style 8" woofer in trunk that really doesn't provide much bass and most of the bass is coming from door woofers. There are several reasons like distance, low amp power and poor element (not real subwoofer). Enclosure is about 8 litres and there are few shallow mount subs that works, but enclosure needs some soundproofing to handle the pressure that longer throw subwoofers give. And of course more power with possibility adjust level so amplifier is needed. We have had time and free hands to test several combinations with two i4's and this set is what we came up.
Notice! Sub box in pics not included you need to use your own but all materials for soundproofing are in the kit.
