Replacement amp for F83

Amp got fried due to the dreaded water leak issue into the trunk

Dealer wants $2600 to replace amp (HK system) and a controller.

I will ask for the part #s however anyone have recommendations for a plug play aftermarket replacement amp?

Contact Bavlogic as they may be a able to refurbish. Had a similar issue earlier this year in my 2016 with HK system and was able to get repaired quickly. Ended up being much cheaper than $2600.

I've had great luck with Bavsound. Replaced all of the speakers/subs in my F80, speakers/subs/amp in my E70.

Quality products and excellent customer support.

What was your cost? Not sure if my amp is fried or if I have another issue.

Yea, he discussed it in another thread here. I also had Bavlogic refurb the old iDrive sys in my 135i, and he was great to work with. I'm glad to hear he works on the amps for our cars too.
