    BMW 430i upgrade

    I have a pair of IS BMW 100L on order. The next upgrade will be the center and/or the amplifier. The Focal center is much cheaper, however many people have disconnected instead of replacing it. Being much cheaper, it won't be perfectly matched to the left and right (unless Focal ripped me...
