Totaly disagree. I am an audiophile (home and car). Having spent way too much money on cars and home, I love the system that BSW has for the X5.

Yes, it is not as well defined and does not have the sound stage that my $7500 M3 Cab show car has, but it is as good as 99% of the 3000-4000 systems I have heard for a lot less money.

The sound stage is well represented with good overall tone and clarity.

If you do not want to go this way, I would not look at the Infinity's the OP is asking about. Making aftermarket speakers work in a BMW with factory amp/dsp is a nightmare and unless you have a good return policy or are a very good DIY installer, you may be left with something you cannot use.

thanks
Brad
