Even it's 7-er Logic7 there, it's the same 13-speakers (2 subwoofer) 420 W system as in E60...
So? We have one of the best factory systems. It can be better, but I'd leave better for custom works.

What's High Definition Stereo? I don't think there is such a thing...
HD stereo is digital broadcast on the FM networks - starting to see it on cars and from radio stations
BTW - my delco system in my 98 prontiac was better than the standard system in my e60

I parked next to an Infinity yesterday, and peeked in the window.
It had Bose speakers in the shoulders of the seatbacks.
OMG THAT IS THE FUNNIEST THING EVER.
Talk about a marketing gimmick.
I can hear the water cooler chat now....
"Hey Joe.... is that your new Infinity in the lot?"
"Yep
"Looks nice."
"Yeah.... the car has everything. It's even got speakers in the seats."

From what I have read, I am pretty sure the L7 system is designed by Lexicon, which is well know for its high end pro and home equipment. Also, Lexicon is owned by Harmon Kardon, which is why most people think the L7 system designed by HK. Incidently, Mark Levinson is also owned by Harmon Kardon.
