Premium Audio Option...

Has anyone ordered this option or found a review of it? It's a considerable price increase...I ordered it, but have yet to hear it over the stock audio, which I'm told is almost equivalent to the Logic 7 system in my 330i

I did a search for premium audio in the e70 forum and didn't find much of anything related to the premium audio systems from BMW.

I have it....sounds awesome. I cant compare to stock sys.

The only way to really hear the difference is with CD's. The sat signal sucks, it sounds highly compressed, and ipod thru aux in sounds the same.

Well then I hope to goodness they come out with a iPod integration kit for the e70s....I love this option in my 330i e90...

It's good to hear someone praising it...so many hate the Harman/Kardon system in the other BMW's

I think most people listen to the sat radio and think both systems sound the same, they dont realize you need a high quailty source like HD Radio or CD's to hear the difference.

Good realisation...I agree with that also...

IMO Sirius sucks as far as quality is concerned...sounds like streaming internet radio from the late 90s....lol

I had it in a Jeep rental car. and found that FM radio sounded better...which is definitely sad...

XM sounds amazing tho
