After some investigation I found that the actual speaker elements for the E60/61, and presumably for the F10, are manufactured by LPG, a OEM manufacturer of speakers and enclosures in Germany. LPG
That would explain why there are no product logos anywhere. Who has ever heard of LPG?

so this is what i think is going on

1) they are using Logic 7 Processor and Sound Settings
2) They are using DiRAC Radio and Amp hardware
3) They are using LPG speakers and subs and tweeters

wow quite the mix and match I just hope BMW is right ...

I hope they sound great!

Only heard the HiFi speakers in the F10 and they are simply lousy.

Hard to say. It seem strange that they can show official figures today when we all know that the production of 520d won't start until june. I know that KCR asks for vehicles for final testing.
Post the question in the E60/61 forums and see if anyone can recommend it.
