#BowersWilkins #BMWM8 #SoundSystem
Ok but 3:10 - 3:17 that Audio with the equalizer is so satisfying to listen to, I’ve replayed it like 20 times now
I’m picking up a BMW M850 with the B&W Diamond system in about two weeks… so pumped!!! 🔥😁👍
Finally a channel I’ve been lookin forever 😭😭
Loved my m5 with the diamond sound. I would drive around town just to vibe out🔥🔥
I want a m5 😡
Thats why you have some tuning to be able to get the sound you want
I do wonder if the harman kardon option on the 8 series sound better or worse than this underwhelming B&W
Speaker locations for clarification: 2 on dash (centre), one on each A-Pillar (diamond), two in each of the doors (1 tweeter, one mid-range), woofer under each seat, two each side of the rear seats , 4 on the parcel shelf. 16 in total. 3 Diamond Tweeters, 4 Aluminum tweeters, 7 midrange drivers, 2 sub woofers. Amp in the boot/trunk.
I've personally heard this system in two BMWs and it sounds great and worth the cost. Second, it's not true that every stereo system is designed to be played flat, thats a ridiculous opinion. Stereo appreciation is entirely subjective based on a number of factors including each person's ability to hear different sound frequencies. Finally, you need some better source material to use to evaluate sound systems; there are a number of audiophile test files out there that many of the manufacturers use.
Finally found the perfect channel! Love your videos man. One question. Can you test Burmester in C class? Compare a bit with the 340i Harman Kardon ones that you already reviewed?! Keep up the good work
So glad you enjoyed! Sure thing, we should have a C-class by the end of the year. The Burmester systems tend to be quite good, but every car is different, so we'll definitely test it.
yess ! im also curious about those 2 sounds systems
the harman kardon in the 3 series g20 are superior to the 2017-2020 c class, the c class has a cheap creaking sound and cracking caused by the lack of high quality pannels in the interior, just like every other benz, same goes with the 2021 gle and e class
My Volvo XC90 has their top level Bowers & Wilkins audio system and it's worth every bit of its $3200 price.
totally agree!
Every B&W from Volvo that I've heard blows this one out of the water. Typically BMW systems are better than this, at least at this price point.
@@DailyMotor I imagine the small interior space makes it worse.
What you are missing is sub bass.
Yo where can buy the set
Wonderful job! Keep up the good work I’ve always loved blowers and Wilkins and once again, how powerful is the bass? :) I’d love to see more Bang & Olufsen videos.
Thanks! Bass was decent but not great. Our most-recent sound tests have some new songs with better bass. I think the first one is the Quattroporte.
There are 16 speakers actually
Had to give your video a thumbs down for a few reasons. First, take the time to review the manufactures information before shooting a video about sound systems, saying you don't know where the speakers are at instantly makes you sound less than credible. Second, in less the Bowers & Wilkins system comes with unique menus in the iDrive then the iDrive system isn't a reason to like or dislike the B & W system. Third, the cost of the car is irrelevant, you're supposed to be giving your opinion on if the B & W system is worth $3400 over the stock Harman / Kardon system.
We wonder who asked
Me. I am looking arround for this reason. My local stores have no cars where i can test the System because they have to lower their car selection due to corona so they selected the most common cars.
@@namelessmusik4345 I’m lucky enough to have dealers who keep both in stock. Going straight from one to the other it’s obvious the differences. If you are a casual music listener or don’t have $3400 to waste then you’ll be happy with the HK. If you love music or have deep pockets then get the BW and enjoy!
@@Scorpio1075 I have B&W at home so why not in car eather? However i found a store 2h away and i will visit them as soon as i can.
@@Scorpio1075 the bowers is trash shut the hell up. Standard burmester in my e coupe is better, meridian or bowers volvo blow this away
Can you review x5 b&w? Would love to see the comparison of xc90
We will do our best to get one!
i want a car (thats going to be my first car) to have rlly good sound, playing music in a car rlly loud and tons of bass is such a vibe and makes me rlly happy
Yeah but you have other drivers looking at you like you’re a douche bag.
Go with a Panamera with the Burmester system. I have had three of them. Best BY FAR.
I personally think this takes the cake of the best sounding system..
@Longest Stride it isn’t buddy, go try it
@Longest Stride I haven’t listened to the latest and greatest b&o , I will try it for sure! I’ll let you know what I though about is
@Susio Dox Incheon Just so you know Bmw used bang olufsen before bower wilkins. They switched to bowers wilkins cause its better
@@maxl7827 nah
The 2 bass speakers should be under the seats
Yea he should atleast know the basics, doesn't seem very professional to me... 2000s Bmws all have 8inch subwoofers under the seats.
Hey bud great content just a quick one I guess its always better to have engine on start so that the voltage doesn’t cause any issues I had my car’s speakers messed up while listening on only battery power and yeah it was HK on bmw F10
Doesn't it have subs under the seats? My 10 year old E91 has a sub under each front seat and although they aren't great subs they do provide enough bass to seriously vibrate the car.
This happens because BMW is very notorious in playing fake engine sounds through its speakers which sometimes affects treble and base.....
is the system much better than the G20 H&K for 1000$
From ur rating it means this sound system is a little inferior than hk in m2c?
Comparing to that vid clearly this has much less midbass/bass. No punch at all on rock track. Maybe this has a better mid/highs (the b&w signature), but quite disappointing at this car price. I owned bmw m340i and was a bit frustrated bc sound was low and not punchy or crisp as my old 328if30 used to be.
love the colour!
In the IX it's 30 speakers and worth every penny
You could review a B&W of a mclaren! Would be really nice
We agree, it would be nice :D We'll see what happens.

Cool Video, i like your music.
Shazam had a lot to do here 😜
There are 16 drivers in the cabin. Your content could have been far more informative if you had done some research before creating your video. A huge amount of engineering went into the creation of that system which should have conveyed. Otherwise I think you did a great job with operational detail.
Hey du berichtest Schale von deinem Motor 2020 BMW
How can you have good bass when you have it set to medium in your settings? Treble should be max and bass 3/4 and on stage. Then this system sounds great. At the beginning you need to be able to set up the system and not judge without having the slightest idea about it 🤦🏻
Audio engineers design their system to be balanced and what they consider to be "right" at the middle of the sound settings. To demonstrate to our viewers, we use these settings. However, we also set the audio system to our preferred settings when we're driving around off camera.
With the treble set at max, that would be a personal preference.
That’s personal choice.
But I personally have my iPhone eq on flat.
I get better sound on my car system.
I only turn down mids -2.
What kind of car and system do you have by chance
amazing😱😱😱
Where can I buy the set
green and brown isnt the best spec. very nice video tho :) but wish it would be in 4k
Thanks! We're curious, what device are you watching? Most people don't seem to notice a difference between 1080p and 4k, so we appreciate the feedback
Daily Motor I’m on my phone and using 360p lol
what’s the song at 8:16?
10:19 what song?
Good Fair price for something tailored
Just got a 2024 M850i with B&W stereo. It sucks. No pop, very tinny. Burmester in the Panamera is so far superior it's not even fair.
Dude why did you play the same music again at start by video and at the end.. 14:13.. May some hip-hop tracks did be better help to check what can this sound system..😄
He can’t play any copyrighted music and pretty much any hip hop that’s familiar is copyrighted.

Hahah I can see that you don't understand anything about audio systems and sound quality. Default settings on equalizer and on bass and treble.
stoped tolking
Volvo is best
How about a test NAIN for Bentley Daily Motor?
Hey folks don't forget, in November vote for TRUMP !!!
Aldo Antonio Vicente Silva trumps the best
Âm thanh thật tệ, cứ như là đài Fm được nâng cấp
That sounds crap, ive just made my E90 sound 100 times better for £700, you are just paying for the name, and wtf you want a cd player for no one has them anymore?????????
I use cd player its so satisfying
