Hello, everyone, it's me again with the delimna on options for my baby. juan2mini said in another thread that I should op to get the Logic 7 instead of the PDC. I contacted my dealer, told him to change the order yet again. Please give me some clarity on just how GOOD this stereo upgrade sounds. I can do this switch, but I'm considering dropping the Cold Weather Pkg also to keep the price within the range I want. Please Help a fellow future E-60 owner. I have checked some of the other threads about the Logic 7, but be honest on true clarity of this system. Thanx

L7 is BY FAR the best stock sound system I know. I never had a sound system in any of my previous cars that was just close to L7. IMHO it's worth every cent!

I regret so much not getting the premium sound L7 option. I find a lack of bass, volume and good equalization (Only bass and treble available) on my 10 speaker system. The subs under the seats are just not enough. If you decide not to purchase the option and after that you try to upgrade your system, then it becomes really difficult to do it in a proper way (Read the threads about the people that want to add a subwoofer to their current non L7 equipped E60)

just my two cents

Spend the money and get the L7. It's wroth the money and I think you'll be happy that you did.

Let us know what you think after you get it that is if you do.

RUTHLESS530:
I didn't exactly say you should drop PDC for logic 7, I said I would - and the CWP. I enjoy my sound system every time I use my car. It will blow away the Harman-Kardan system in your wife's 2004 325ci. When I went to buy my e60 I told the dealers there were three must haves - 545i, 6-speed manual and the logic 7 sound system. No regrets, great combo of power, fun and sound. Good luck.

You'll enjoy L7 every single moment are in your car, and you'd probably use PDC only once in a while. Go for L7. I regret that I did not have L7.

If you love music, regardless of the type,you will love the Logic 7.The built in equalizer lets you tweek the excellent flat response to just the right degree. I find the bass on some of the jazz I listen to just a bit to much. By dropping the lowest bass setting a notch or two I find it clearer and cleaner sounding. Full classical orch. music sounds clean and powerful, even at high volume.
The system sounds even better today then when it was first delivered., typical of any fine speaker system as they break in and loosen up.
Definitly go for it. The standard system can't even come close to it. Along with the sports package, the best options in the car. To not get it, is to regret it, for as long as you keep the car.

Get it. You will not regret it. Also consider that it is rather difficult/complicated to upgrade if you decide that you don't like the standard setup. Why don't you see if your dealer will let you listen to a Logic 7 system and decide for yourself.

I've read several reviews of the L7 and they all rave about it. Other owners love it. I love it. If you like a nice stereo, get it.

Note: Due to the poor visibility of the front and rear of this car, I would keep the PDC - it could save you from an embarassing and costly scrape.

I love the L7, everyone who gets in the car comments on how great the stereo sounds. I have been digging out CDs that I have not listened to in a long time and enjoying them all over. I really want sat radio now. I hope it becomes compatible soon.
