B&W System
I'll be taking delivery of 2019 X5 5.0 MSport
next week with B&W audio. Loaded up w a list of almost $97K. I’m regretting sticking w 20 inch rims (Due to my Chicago address). Really wish I went for 22’s and a addl set of snows. Last edited by rwkramer1; 12-23-2018 at 03:34 PM.. Reason: Not completed |

B&W sounds amazing! I've heard the HK and the quality is good, but I feel like the b&w just has much more clarity and tight hitting bass. But obviously you would only notice the difference if you compare side to side.
If you took the HK home, I'm certain you will love it. I'm just one of those over the top kinda guys and just want the best.. b&w rocks! |

Thanks; again this is on new orders going forward. I assume they only have enough for vehicles ordered already at this point and if you did not get a notice or a delay you should receive the option.

True. And don't get me wrong; it doesn't sound bad. I just liked the B&O better.
I do really like that the B&W speakers light up in the same color as the rest of the ambient lighting, whereas the B&O was only white, and much more subdued. I'm still happy I spent the money to get it. |

Yup under interior lights settings. Can make them same as rest of ambient lights or white[/QUOTE] I looked on my settings and all it gives me is the option for white lighting. If I shut it off, I get no lighting in the speakers. Do you have a different option?

Can someone confirm how many speakers the B&W system has? On BMWUSA.com site it says 16 speakers but I've read that it has 20 speakers. I ordered it but my X5 won't arrive for a couple weeks.

16, there's a B&W promotional video on YouTube for the G05 X5. Here's a screenshot showing the 16, it's hard to see but just mirror one side to the other and count.

B&W System 16 or 20 speakers?
I have the 2019 X5 ordered w/B&W and due for delivery any day now.
I ordered the system expecting 20 speakers as initially promoted. IF the system has only 16 I will most definitely expect some sort of compensation from BMW. |

If you click on the picture that Android posted, it shows each type of speaker and the quantity of each. It adds up to 20 speakers.
