For the amp, I'm trying to find out if the Match UP 7BMW is compatible, or wait for a compatible version.

The Bavsound Revenant is essentially as rebranded Match UP 7, but with the DPS locked, so you can't tweak it.

If you're in the US, you can get them from Crutchfield: https://www.crutchfield.com/S-gJCj92...H-UP-7BMW.html

I'll likely use their plug and play replacement speakers too.

In the meantime, I've been trying different sub solutions to fix the deadspot.

Any amp/sub combo I've tried in the trunk so far has just exacerbated the deadspot. The only decent solution I found was surprisingly a compact sub behind the passenger seat, which does an incredible job of filling the deadspot and sounds far better than you'd ever expect for a compact sub.

One annoyance is that the additional amp/sub amplifies the ASD, so I'm probably going to have to get that disabled, as it's already driving me nuts.
