analog and digital systems inc., BMW E34 1989-95 5-series Audio S ystem U pgrades To add a subwoofer to the factory system we need an amplifier to power it.  We have a several choices   here, depending on budget. The least expensive alternative would be to use a single 310rs.2 along with a P450 amplifier.  Powering the new sub- woofer with any a/d/s/ P-series amplifier will allow use of the optional  AC502 bass level controller for up-front bass level adjustment.

In this upgrade we address the inadequacies of the factory bass system and  underpowered factory amp. Stock systems are not equipped with subwoofers. Therefore, the best first investment is to add one to the existing system. UPGRADE ll.  For this upgrade, we will use the same front speaker setup as in stage I.
