For 1500 you won't find a better than this combo:

Bimmertech Amp, Jehnerts underseat or preferably their 3 way flatline kit.

I had them installed before and although they got louder than stock, I wasn't happy with the entire setup and uninstalled everything within two weeks. My installer disconnected the under seats and in their place he put in two 12's running 1500 watts. It didn't sound well at all being that the audio sounded louder but without much midbass. Just tons of bass. I guess best way to explain it is that it was too bright and didn't sound of quality at all. I just want an audio system that is significantly louder than my factory HiFi with added bass and sound quality. In fact, I don't mind the way the factory system sounds except for the lack of volume and how it gets muddy once turned up. I'm pretty sure the bavsound speakers won't be loud enough even with an aftermarket amp. I think I'm looking for something like ~100 watts rms per speaker for the highs.
Your installer is clueless about SQ. Don't ever take your car to his shop again..EVER....

For your budget you won't able to get better equipment installed at a shop that knows what their doing.

So what kind of box are your subs sitting in and do u have pictures?
Haha they were in a shitty ported box that actually broke apart from the bass overtime. Box was thrown in from retailer at the time as part of a packaged freebie for buying both subs. If I decide to use the subs or even one, I would have to get something made for it.

You won't find them online. They're only available at select high end car audio shops. I know the U.S Distributor...They're made in Germany.

MSRP for the 3 way is $999, i can get it for $850 or if you only want the underseat midbass its $459. They're not cheap but you get what you pay for!! do a search for reviews... If you want to do it right the first time this is what you need...Oh and i already have the tune for the F10, i guarantee that you will be happy with the upgrade!!!

He accidentally shipped it to me so you'll probably have to buy another one!

Going to lose my mind in anticipation for this bimmertech amp! Anyway I was curious if I was the first person here with an F10 getting this amp? Seems to be plenty of F30 owners with the amp though...
