Happy to help but my 8-series coupe and your M5 have different cabin volume so our mileage may vary on the proper EQ settings. The OP on this G07 forum thread put together an excellent "how to" post on dialing in the B&W sound: https://g07.bimmerpost.com/forums/sh...php?p=26766185. I'd suggest starting there and then I can help further with any questions, etc. Unlike the OP with a degree in acoustic and audio engineering I spent 10 years of a past life in touring rock and roll bands configuring the "mix" for every bar, hall, and large venues we played in. So once I read his post it absolutely resonated with me as its basically the same process I went through with just a few minor differences, e.g., I started with a flat EQ vs the smiley but you'll get where you need to be regardless.

FYI that the key is the source material so Sirius XM is out and you'll need at a minimum some MP3's on a thumbdrive but even they are compressed so ultimately you need high resolution source (FLAC is the best bet). If you do not have anything in the high resolution space you can buy an album or two that meets your musical taste from https://www.hdtracks.com/.
