I have the Hifi option in my M240i. While it's not the best system, I've had the displeasure of living with the "base" option in my old E82 which was far worse.

After deciding that I would try improve things I wanted a solution that was 1) Plug-and-play and 2) Cost effective. I settled on a set of Eton B100W's in conjunction with the HK tweeter pods to begin with, added StP sound deadening behind the mid-range door speakers and metal immediately surrounding them.

Results were pretty solid. Nothing mind-blowing (not that I was expecting it to be), but I'm happy enough with the heightening of the sound stage from waist level and the general improvement of sound quality to declare this reasonably quick modification easily worth the effort/money.

I've now gone ahead and ordered the B100XN and B100XCN for the rears and center. Once those are in I'll re-assess whether I want to add an uprated amp to the equation in the near future.
