Evenflow545, I agree - e60 is a great auto with some (IMHO) minor problems. I don't find Logic7 to be one of them. My sound system is playing if the car is running - cd's mostly. Live at Leeds - NOW you're TA, TA, TALKING ABOUT MY GENERATION!

Get the Logic 7 and learn to like it.? ? We're not 18 years old anymore.
Just my two cents, like it or not.

Where has this thread gone? You would rather have an Acura, over an e60, because of the sound system? "Tormented" by the BMW's sound systems? I need to get out more, I keep think it's a freakin car!!!!!

Acura uses a Panasonic system now... DVD audio. It is not Bose.
And... as someone who knows more than a thing or two about home and car audio.... allow me to just state a simple fact.
Bose sucks.
Their slogan is: "Better sound through research."
It should be: "Better sound through marketing."

Yeah right.
The L7 is the best stock sound system. I had Bose in my previous car and it sucked, compared to the L7!

Anyone that really appreaciates true audio systems, particualry in the home with good stereo systems, would agree with you that Bose is not what some claim it to be and is much more of a sucess at mass marketing a product concept that the true audiophile has issues with.

So the quality of the sound is better with the Logic 7 turned off.? But this is not the only test of a good stereo system.? There is another phenominon called "stereo imaging." ......................
When I listen to the stereo with the processing turned off, I feel the sound quality is better.? But I do not like the stereo imaging with the L7 off.? It sounds like the music is coming from behind me, and I hate that.? I like to have a strong, frontal soundstage.

If you don't like the music from coming from behind with L7 off, try fading towards the front a bit. The center channel won't come into play as much, if at all, and the sound won't be totally centered, but it should help some.

Overall tonality is more important than imaging IMO.

If you read some of the earlier posts in this thread, I mentioned my experimentation with that.
I was unable to create an decent soundstage using the balance/fader.
Only with the L7 processing could I achieve this.
To me, imaging is VERY important. I prefer to take the distortion from the L7 processor to have the upfront imaging I like.
