[QUOTE="alaindelon, post: 9166, member: 7110"] hi guys, need some advise on ICE setup for E39 as the current stock setting is less than satisfactory. I was previously using the following in my previous ride and still in the midst of disposing them. I am considering to transplant them to the E39 if I can't sell them.1) HU: Alpine CDA-98552) Amp: Alpine PDX 4.1503) Speakers: Dynaudio (mids sold, left with tweet MD130, not an option for the moment)4) Kickers Freeair 10" subs in sealed box + cap ayam ampConditions:1) prefer to keep the ride standard without cutting the door panels or boot panel2) mounting the tweets in the original side mirror locations3) setup for SQ with good staging and image4) music preference: vocals, jazz and classical with occasional pop music.Queries:1) Which 5.25" components would be a good choice? - few installers have recommended DLS UP5 or UR5i.
