do we all have this problem with the harmon kardon system?
I noticed that with the logic 7 unchecked the satellite radio does not work in the rear speakers, only the front, with the front rear fader placed in the center.
The dealer told me this is how it is, and that you have to check the logic 7 box for satellite radio to come out of all the speakers this cant be true, anyone else try this in their car? I hate the way the system sound with the logic 7 turned on and have never had this issue in any of my BMWs |

I can confirm with Logic 7 off in satellite radio, my rear speakers do NOT get any sound. Incredibly strange.
I tested with my Apple Car Play audio and the same is not true, I get sound out of the rear with or without Logic 7 turned on. I'm willing to bet it shouldn't be that way - there is no reason one Stereo audio source works properly and another doesn't. It's incorrectly programmed, there is no other excuse. 2019 non-competition for reference. |

My feeling is, "Who cares?" because the sound quality of Sirius/XM as a source is pathetic. So, leave the Logic 7 on, because satellite radio needs all the help it can get.

I did a test on my M5C. With Logic 7 off Sirius does not play out of the rear speakers (door or rear deck). If you put the fader all the way to the back you get some sound out of the rear deck but not the rear doors. If you turn Logic 7 on, you get sound out of all speakers.

Does this apply to the Bowers & Wilkins option too?

I have the B&W and have not had any of these issues. I'm not an audiophile so take it for what it's worth.

Logic 7 is proprietary to Harman company. I believe it came from their Lexicon division. Anyway, B&W does not have access to this processing. So there should be no issue as it can't even be selected.
And I have not noticed it in my car in my standard modes that I use. |
