I don't have the B&W system but I read that most think it lacks bass just as the HK that I have.
I'm fiddling with the EQ since a couple of weeks on weekly 2.5 hours drives and I think the HK system in the M5 struggles with the 200Hz band which seems to send way too much bass to the small mid-bass speakers of the doors and rear deck.
I just lowered the 200Hz to minus 5-6 while turning up the 100Hz one to plus 5-6. Much more bass with that setting so far with modern music. It still lacks on old quality recordings.
I wonder if the B&W system will behave the same. Might be worth a try but seems counter intuitive.
