I like it. Sounds better at lower volumes than the $1900 Premium stereo in my E92.
However, seems radio is not HD?

I think so. Perhaps I just had too big of expectations. Make no mistake, it sounds good.

I'm just hoping this system sounds decent like my current bose system in my 2011 Infiniti G37 IPL

HK doesn't match it, it falls far short imo.

I had the 335 E92 coupé with "individual audio", seems to be the "premium" option referenced here (in Switzerland they seem to call it differently). cost me 3000 swiss francs and it was awesome, 600 W performance, 16 speakers. HK has 16 speakers, of which 2 subwoofers under front seats (as the E92 had), and around 600 W performance, so on the numbers side, they seem to be comparable, but I guess the E92 system had better quality speakers - or maybe BMW just made too much money on that and now lowered the price, who knows...

Ive had two cars since then, but mine sounds a lot better then the Bose in my 08 G37s... which im pretty sure is the same as the 2011 IPL.

i honestly was not satisfied. the highs are noticeable crisp but loud, the lows are not strong enough giving mostly every song on the FM/Sirus a high pitch. you do have the option to mess with the equalizer which I did ( set it to a wave format- usually recommended for a standard good overall sound) and it help a bit, but feel it could use a lot more base.

The IPL had an upgraded bose system over the standards that the G's came with. Overall the system was nice, not great for an audiophile, but for someone like me it works perfect. If I can have at least that or better with the HK, then i'll be happy. |

These settings worked great for my music--metal, hip-hop, mainstream, etc. i now enjoy my music and I think I'm quite picky. I think logic7 over enhances the music.

The subass definately needs help. I am adding a JL Audio 12 Sub and Mono JL Amp tom in the trunk area. they make a thin line 12 enclosure .
Ive tried everything but the subs under the seat are not sufficient to ggo low enough . I think this will help immensly . Let you know Stay Tuned |

That said, IMO, the HK system SUCKS If you don't think so, you've never heard a really good car stereo. It's exactly the same as in the F32. And L7 makes things worse. BUT, like the MP3, it's good enough for most, I'd guess. |

NOTE: I am running a 32gb stick in the center and using only FLAC files, so naturally, the SQ is much better.
