We test drove a GMC Arcadia recently and it had a camera In the rear view mirror that you could activate it was a nice feature
Also we chose not to go with the captains seats because they do not fold flat for maximum cargo space we found that to be a big drawback. |

Certainly bench seat. You'll need a trunk space for the stroller at the least. 😜 B&W if you're a big music listener and do a lot of road. Then it's worth it. Don't worry about minor issues, bmw will man up and fix those. If you're not the type above HK is not bad at all. I have an XC90 with B&W and an X7 with HK. Yes sound is crisp and amazing but I'm not missing it with HK. If B&W is 100% HK is 80% in my evaluation That's my 2 cents.

Only when you have 3kids and need the trunk space with 3rd row down. Otherwise if you only have two kids, either way works

I got the X7 because my oldest and his friends and basketball teammates don't fit in my MB Ewagon anymore. With the X7 and bench seats, I can haul the oldest kid (soon to be teenager) and all his friends/teammates and their gear to/from their practices/games or the little one (5yr old) with enough car seats for all his friends to go on a playdate. |

I have a loaner with HK now, and it sounds really good. Definitely not a bad option. However, I really miss the clarity and smoothness of my B&W. No distortion what so ever even in the highest volume setting. I do play lossless music on it through Tidal. If you have (or getting) the B&W, you definitely need to sign up for Tidal HiFi to get the best quality music for your B&W. |

+1 for the H&K being a phenomenal base system. Currently in a X7 while my 750 with B&W is in the shop. I was floored with how good the H&K sounds, especially the bass response. Previous vehicle was a 2016 X5 with the H&K and it sounded nowhere near as detailed and punchy. Makes me wonder just how amazing the B&W must be in this cabin.

For the price, I just don't think the B&W is head and shoulders above the HK sound system in the X7. The Bass response should be stronger and punchier imo.

Not only does it look cool, the tweeters are made from real diamonds; which is on if the best materials for sound production. They allow of the purity and clearness of the music. Plus it's a heck of slit more powerful than HK. I think it's around 1500watts.

The B&W Diamond tweeters are just one component that makes B&W D speakers sonically special - the B&W Continuum Core actually plays a more massive role in speaker performance. They shifted from the Aramid fiber used in midrange cone material to composite construction which avoids abrupt transitions in verberation to provide more preferred neutral sound. There's also the Aerofoil cone, solid body tweeter, reverse wrapped cabinet and Matrix (internal structure to the speakers or backbone) - the later 3 you'll only find in their home speakers. Don't get me wrong I'm not bashing B&W and spent years slowly acquiring B&W D3 - 803 fronts, 805 surrounds and back, HTM1 for music in my study. Just grounding the Diamond marketing hype, these aren't like precious Cartier diamonds.
