I actually have HK system in my M2, and while it certainly sounds flatter than the B&W system, it actually sounds pretty good to my ears, and while its flatter it also has less distortions than B&O, L7, or B&W, in fact it has no distortions. But then HK system in the M2 might be different than HK system in the G05, as BMW's audio branding designation is weird.

Not sure what you mean, did I miss anything? Why do you need heat and force to remove stock subs?

No problem at all, I've disagreed with people regarding audio systems myself in the past. Bavsound midranges sound ok, but there are certain frequencies where they horribly distort, I'll find a video for you to demonstrate.
