I'm not sure about all these posts about lack of low-end response... I have the B&W in my 2019 750i and it is far and away the best system I have ever heard in an automobile.

I hope those complaining about the bass actually know how to set their EQ for maximum response and clarity. Two words: "disco smile". Look it up.

I have a side-gig as a sound engineer and the B&W is so good that our studio actually uses the Bimmer as a reference system when we're mixing and mastering songs. Definitely couldn't say the same about the H&K. Currently in a 2020 750 loaner car and I'm very underwhelmed with Harmon when compared to my Bowers.[IMG][/IMG]
