Can confirm the Bavsound is a significant upgrade over the admittedly awful HK. Much smoother and less harsh top end, you can actually hear the mid range now, tighter and more vibrant lower range. It exposes the messiness of the stock under seat woofers a little, so the low end bass does not match the clarity of the mid range. Overall I'd say it brings it closer to the EPS in the e9x M3, it sounds way punchier with better separation compared to the wall of mess that was the HK. I'm very happy with it as I can actually listen to the sound system now, and overall it makes the car feel much more 'premium'.

The sound would be improved again by more sound insulation in the car to bring the ambient noise (particularly tire roar) down. Subs would clean up the low end bass although I wouldn't say this is a priority. AMP would be nice to better set the EQ and sound stage. Honestly for now though I'm happy with it and can turn my attention to upgrading other parts of the car.
