Been following this hoping to figure out what i have and how to upgrade it. In conclusion, non of the setups anyone mentioned fits mine (i think).
I have an 08 135i coupe US. I have 2 tweeters in the front by my side mirrors, there are 2 speakers on the doors and two speakers on the deck behind the rear seats. This is a total of 6 speakers. No logos anywhere. The audio adjustments on the radio are endless but ive only really experienced aux input and it sounds ok, not that great, i hear a lot of fuzz. Maybe it will sound better with a CD but who carries those around anymore? I thought the bass was comming from the 2 rear speakers which would mean i dont have speakers under my seats, if i did i would have 8 speakers total, which as per everything discussed isnt even an option. So, what do i have? Id like to price out new speakers and amp but im afraid of tearing the interior appart myself. Thanks!

1-Series 2010 = Stereo (6 speakers, no tweeters, no OEM amp) or Logic7/Premium system (10-speakers, digital OEM amp) 1-Series 2011 = Stereo (6 speakers, no tweeters, no OEM amp) or Harman Kardon/Logic7 system (10-speakers, digital OEM amp) 1-Series 2011.5 to 2012 = HiFi (8-speakers, analog OEM amp) or Harman Kardon/Logic7 system (10-speakers, digital OEM amp) The main difference between HiFi and Logic7/Harman Kardon is the 7-band EQ with the Bass and Treble adjustments in the Logic7. No EQ = no Logic7/Harman Kardon. Last edited by Technic; 02-29-2012 at 08:13 AM.. |

By the way, only MY2011 had 6-speakers and no OEM amp as standard in the USA. Every other 1-Series model year in the USA has at least 8-speakers and an OEM amp as standard. Last edited by Technic; 02-29-2012 at 08:32 AM.. |

if you roll the seat all the way back you should be able to see a small sub in the floor, looking from the front side. It's only about 6" in diameter and covered by a metal grille.

Yes. I have done that. Dont need the sarcastic response. I was asking if i have the speakers in door, behind back seats, under seats and woofers by mirrors if I have the upgraded system in my 08 128? His sarcastic response wasnt needed. Maybe he needs to go join another forum for children

One of the mods asked if I could stop by and provide some more info, so I'm providing links to the pages that we have published this sort of info on our site:
This page addresses the different BMW factory audio systems. This page goes into more detail about each system. This page is a partial list of what was available when in the US. These pages will be updated in the future with more pics, but even as they are they have been helpful to many folks in the E90 section, and there is E82-specific info there. Regards, Ken |

Its nice to see the 3 series speaker diagram, but I still feel as though I'm missing 2 speakers or some info is wrong for the 2008 1 series.
I have the 7 band EQ with cinema mode/etc on my head unit However I have found only 8 speakers: 2x tweeters in the door/a-pillar area 2x mids in the doors 2x mids behind rear seats 2x subs under each front seat There are no labels on any of my speakers. Am i missing two speakers, or was the premium stereo on 8 speakers in 2008? Thanks |

The 1-series has never had a center speaker and AFAIK only had one set of rears. I think that's why I like the sound of the 1-series Premium more than the 3-series.

See the attached
The attachments I just added to this have been posted before. They are the same as has been said but perhaps will provide enough additional information to be helpful - or maybe the way it is stated will be clearer to somebody.
The base system offered in the US in 2008 and 2009 was the mid-level system in the rest of the world. It has as many speakers as the premium system offering in those years but it also has less power and different speakers. The "base" was the "Hi-Fi" in those years, in other words. Jim
