We are very proud to introduce our final piece of the BMW sound system puzzle: the Alpha One SUB10 BMW Subwoo fer Upgrade! Designed by audio lovers—who also happen to be multiple car audio competition winners—the Alpha One SUB10 is the best way for you to enhance your bass without making it obnoxious.
It’s simple: our subwoofer is optimized to seamlessly reinforce the lowest octave, through the means of extra low-end power that is presented on time with the kick-bass from your front woofers. That’s how we provide you with the most well-balanced, natural bass boost. Every little design element of the SUB10 has been painstakingly thought through with the ultimate goal of bringing a beautiful, excellent sounding universal enclosure to our clients.
At the bottom rear of the subwoofer enclosure is where all the magic happens - right there we neatly hid a 900W RMS capable single channel Alpha One Monoblock amplifier powering the 10” subwoofer driver. Right around the amp you’ll see the quick disconnects for both power cables remote in and of course an RCA cable that are all supplied with the SUB10 kit.
Before you ask: while we would have loved to make custom-fitted subs that don’t take away any of your trunk space for every single vehicle chassis, it’s just not something we can do at this time. For that reason, we opted for a one-size-fits-all enclosure which comes with an excellent quick disconnect feature that will allow you to remove the SUB10 from the trunk whenever you need the space without any hassle.
Bonnie to our DSP amp’s Clyde, the SUB10 has been designed as the final step of your audio enhancement journey. We are not gatekeeping you from using other third-party solutions – we just know that our subwoofer upgrade will work excellently with our Alpha One DSP amps that you already have and frankly need to connect the sub to it.
The SUB10 cannot be used without our Alpha One DSP amp being installed prior or at the same time, as without the DSP it would be impossible to tune it in properly and accurately. DSP tuning is the secret ingredient with which our audio engineers make the trunk sub reinforce the deep bass in a way where you will never be able to tell where the bass is coming from when delivering the thunder.
It won’t be “delayed” either. If you’ve ever listened to a trunk sub that was slap-job installed, even if it was from a quality manufacturer, but not tuned in with DSP, chances are you heard bass that was half a beat late to the front system. The bass would still be reinforced, but when it doesn’t arrive on time, it gets tiring after a while and we don’t stand for that.
…Because you won’t find them in our Alpha One SUB10 Subwoofer. It’s hefty alright, but we didn’t design it to shatter windshields – the SUB10 is all about sound quality performance and the extra 300 W of low-end power.
From our experience, if 300 W of bass reinforcement won’t do the trick for you, 600 W is also unlikely to get the job done. That is also approximately the limit of when trunk subs, regardless of the best engineering practices, start losing sound quality while gaining power handling.
Don’t get us wrong: 300 W will still shake your rearview mirror, with its ultimate purpose being sound quality, seamless bass integration and listening to recordings as they were produced without losing any deep bass information. And that it does perfectly.
It’s refined, just like your sound system and musical taste.
If you’re mechanically inclined or into DIY, or you’ve already completed some installs of other Alpha One upgrades, you’ll knock the installation of our SUB10 in less than an hour! Most of that time will be needed for some trim removal and plug-and-play wiring. There will be no wires to cut and no visual changes to your cabin. Other than the elegant subwoofer taking up some of your trunk space!
In most cases, you’ll have the subwoofer working in 4 easy steps:
Remove the
necessary trim panels.
Connect your
SUB10 subwoofer.
Reinstall the
trim.
Load a new DSP
tune to your
Alpha One amp

Upgrading from the [[tag_1]] factory speakers to our Alpha One kit will make a huge difference to the quality of the sound in your vehicle. We use premium materials and a carefully honed design for improved clarity and performance, giving a more refined, enjoyable sound. With around 30% greater power handling than the standard OEM speakers, Alpha Ones are also capable of greater volume in appropriate setups.
Owners of vehicles with a basic factory stereo — without tweeters or a separate amplifier — will notice an even greater improvement when adding both components to their system with our Alpha One kit and Alpha One Amplifier.
The Alpha One speakers are a marked step up from any other plug-and-play speaker kit on the market; both our speakers and amplifier are meticulously designed from the ground up for optimal performance in your [[tag2_and_mini]], for a truly remarkable sound out of the box.
But a lot goes into building a great sound system, and standout speakers like the Alpha Ones are just part of the puzzle. Other companies can offer speakers, but only BimmerTech has the combined decades of experience working with BMW electronics and audio expertise to create equipment that perfectly matches your vehicle’s factory stereo.
When buying a Alpha One Amplifier alongside your Alpha One speakers, we are also able to tune the amplifier to match not only your vehicle, but also the speakers you have fitted (Alpha One or OEM). This results in a far better sound than you’d get from a one-size-fits-all solution from another brand.
Yes. We designed the Alpha One speakers to perform in BMWs with a range of stereo systems, including the most basic options without a separate amplifier. The Alpha Ones will still be a noticeable improvement over the factory speakers. To make the most of your new speakers, however, you may want to add our Alpha One Amplifier amplifier.
Yes. Adding Alpha One tweeters to a vehicle that did not come with tweeters from the factory will require replacing a trim piece in the front doors, in which the tweeters will be mounted. After selecting your model, you'll see the list of parts you will need to purchase to install your kit. Contact us for more information.
Almost no mainstream aftermarket speakers have the power handling to take full advantage of the extra wattage provided by a more powerful amplifier. Even our Alpha One Amplifier is tuned at less than its full power output to prevent overloading the speakers. More powerful amplifiers are useful only in custom speaker installations usually requiring dedicated speaker enclosures.
The true benefit of our Alpha One Amplifier isn’t just the increased power, but the improvement it can make to the quality of the sound, thanks to the 64-bit DSP and high signal-to-noise ratio. Our expert audiophiles use this capability to tune your amplifier to suit your specific vehicle and speakers, meaning you’ll get a more pleasant sound than you would from an amplifier that hasn’t been professionally adapted to your vehicle, whatever its specs on paper.
Our amplifier is designed to perform best with the BMW OEM HiFi speakers or our Alpha One kit. With either of these sets, we will tune the amp to bring out the best in your speakers. If you upgrade to the Alpha Ones at a later date, we will provide a tuning file to adjust the amplifier’s tuning for your new speakers.
The Alpha One Amplifier can also be used with other aftermarket speakers, but we are not able to provide dedicated tuning files. For optimal performance, we recommend using Alpha One subwoofers.
We have chosen not to publish frequency response graphs for our speakers because we don't believe this information is useful in a car audio scenario. The interior of your vehicle — including its size, shape and materials — is going to have a significant impact on the sound you actually hear, and this won’t be shown on a frequency response graph.
We took frequency measurements during the development process, but the sound that really matters is the sound in situ in the car, where we did the bulk of the tuning work when developing our Alpha One kit.
We have published specifications for our speakers on our website in the 'Specification' section to make it easy to understand what each speaker offers.
In terms of other aspects of the speakers' design, we have purposefully chosen specifications that are well suited to use with either a factory [[tag_1]] amp or our own Alpha One Amplifier. This balance of capabilities is what gives our speakers such an impressive all-round performance.
How many speakers you will need depends on factory [[tag_1]] speaker system. But with BimmerTech, you don't need to replace them all at once; you can upgrade as many or as few speakers as you want.
For most vehicles, we offer three prepared BMW speaker replacement kits:
You can even choose speakers individually, if you aren't looking for a full BMW car stereo upgrade yet.
We do not offer a money-back free trial. If you don't have the opportunity to hear the Alpha One speakers for yourself before buying, you can check out what our happy customers have to say about their phenomenal sound:
Yes, we offer a full range of MINI Cooper stereo upgrades, for both the standard sound system and the premium factory options made by Harman Kardon. MINI Cooper owners will enjoy the same ease of installation and impeccable sound BimmerTech is known for in the BMW world.
