for those who are wondering, I added a subwoofer 10 inch by audison active and it is better than the top-tier burmester I have got in my e-class cabriolet and as good as our x7! Filled in the gaps so nicely, for those more bassy songs, and the workshop somehow made it work with the inbuilt bass-slider in the settings! 10/10 would reccomend if your off put by the bass but it did cost around 1500aud, which is worth it to me!

Quality video and channel overall. Thanks for your work. Keep it up! 💯

Definitely a better sound system than my 2023 x3 Harmon Kardon I just traded in. Plus the upgraded interior & exterior blows the current x3 out the water.

Crossing this vehicle off my short list after this excellent review. I need bass that at least rivals my HK system in my XC60

My wife and I just got this vehicle and have been really impressed with the sound system, especially the crisp highs. Like you, I was also a little disappointed with the lack of bass at all levels, but fortunately the bass is at least very accurate. I would much rather have that than the strong but muddy bass that is present in the Bose system in our 2023 Bolt EV.

Do you leave enhanced audio on? What are your presets

@@pariandangel I leave enhanced audio on. To me it sounds like BMW's version of room correction and I think it works very well. I leave mids and treble at +0 but I believe I have bass at +5. It doesn't really resolve the lack of upper bass but the low bass hits pretty well at that setting.

Hi - I am debating on a new X1 but am concerned about the lack of knobs and the dial...which I loved. Is it easy to navigate all of the systems without looking at the screen? Did you set up voice activation? It doesn't seem safe to navigate without looking at this screen. I must be missing something. Gen Xer here...lol!

Great, really helpful! So your recommendation is to turn off ‘enhanced sound’ and crank up the bass a little? Should I also minimise the volume control? As the car picks up speed, the sound gets louder.

Bmw needs to up their subwoofer game. 3 beemers and I’ve been disappointed with all of them (all had the max upgrade audio)

How do you compare it with the standard sound system? Is it worth the extra 600+ euro? Thanks!

Unfortunately I forgot to put this optional. How can I fix it? could I install at least a subwoofer?

I have to admit the 2020 BMW 330i I just turned in for the 2023 X1 was disappointed with the Harmon Kardon sound.

Hey Charlie, If I ran my USB C thumb drive (with WAV files) through an external DAC before plugging it into the cars USB C port, would it still work? Would it also work if I ran my iPhone (containing WAV files) through an external DAC before connecting it to the USB C port (thus avoiding the mediocre built in iPhone DAC)? I assume if either did work the sound would be superior to the built in Wireless CarPlay? Thanks if you can advise.

Ooof, that's a great question and I have no idea the answer. Would probably be different for every vehicle. Maybe that's something I can try someday

The reason I ask is because it seems you cannot connect an external DAC to Apple CarPlay by wire - won’t work. But if a car like the X1 has Wireless CarPlay you can use that for navigation, etc, but plug a thumb drive with HD tracks into the USBC port via an external DAC and have the best of both worlds. Ideally it would best to use your iPhone with HD tracks and run that through a USBC port via an external DAC. The goal is to avoid the iPhone and car DACs, which are normally poor. Make sense?

Hey DM SOUND I have a 320 2020 touring with HK on…does it sound better on x1 or on 320 both with HK? Thanks

Shocker…another B rated H/K system. Definitely seems to be where they all land.

mich hat das Harman Kardon im X1 U11 überhaupt nicht überzeugt, überhaupt kein Druck und nur wenn man leise hört hört es sich halbwegs ordentlich an und deswegen habe ich das Soundsystem nicht mit bestellt und lasse ein Soundsystem nach rüsten. The Harman Kardon in the X1 U11 didn't convince me at all, no pressure at all and only if you listen quietly does it sound reasonably decent and that's why I didn't order the sound system and had a sound system retrofitted

Review Lamborghini urus Bang and oflusen 🔥🔥

this is the shittiest audio system between Audie Q5 and Mercedes GLA and this. planning to upgrade the sound system

I was extremely disappointed with the equaliser: only a 2 band EQ. Really??? And even then, it hasn't much effect as well. The average tone of the soundsystem is too clear or too sharp. Sub bass yeah, but too little bass or low mids. Really a real bad sound system. 😢

This is because your sitting wrong, no fault of the car you don’t know how to sit correctly.

Worse than B tier imho
