Taken from the faq

What is Logic7?
Logic7 is BMW's optional professional HiFi stereo system which is an enormous upgrade to the standard stereo. Logic7 is a special digital audio signal processing mode for two-channel stereo signals and multi-channel multimedia signals. The objective of Logic7 is to create an experience in sound as true to the original as possible for all listeners within the car. The Logic7 system is comprised of four tweeters in the mirror triangles and in the parcel shelf, one 100 mm conical subwoofer serving as the central loudspeaker in the middle of the instrument cluster, four 100 mm conical subwoofers in the doors, two 100 mm conical subwooders in the parcel shelf, and two 210 mm central base loudspeakers beneath the front seats. A total of 13 speakers.

If you read teh sales brochure it clearly reads that the Premium sound comes with L7 and additional subs which is located under the seat.

In this case I would guess and say that teh factory made a mistake in your favor and installed the subs. But you did not recievet he L7 premium package.

Good stuff Hope this solves the confusion.

It may void part of your warrenty if you have a problem and they say the direct cause was from your aftermarket parts. And usually that is the first thing they like to blame.

wow!

I am thinking in swapping my 525i for either a 545 or a 645

Should I still order another 525 to see if they get confused and give me an M5 instead?
