I want the options, but I want the white. In all honesty the HK stereo is better then any other factory stereo I've ever had. I dont usually blast music for long periods of time. I also already have a remus catback and ER secondary for the car. So I see the windows being cracked to hear the exhaust alot. Plus I have a 15 month old when shes in the car definitely not blasting any music. I guess I just wanted the Bowers and Wilkins because it's better. But I've heard both back to back and yes the Bowers and Wilkins has a little clearer sound but that's about it from what I can tell. All my friends are say F that Bowers and Wilkins lol. I have to make a decision. That's for you help guys
I bought the B&W in a Q7 a few years ago. It was nice, but honestly I never turn on music in my M5. I have the MPE and my car is always in S3 because I love the way it sounds. The HK is perfectly adequate for the amount I use it.

Thanks, I feel like I'm gonna be the same way. But I figured I will get the stereo this time and see if I use it. If I dont use it and it was a waste then when I get my next lease I'll just get the standard stereo. I've never had a car like this so I'd rather have it this time. It's only 1400 difference for the whole 36 term. I've been going back and forth for 2 weeks hahah

I think your right. I'm gonna shirt it out tomorrow and see what I can get. Hopefully it's the original one. But I have my doubts. Just got to figure it out. Most likely I'm gonna go with the white one.
Which company? (Has an HK upgrade) Please drop in a link if you have it. Thanks....

Anyone else have experience with their product?
