If it is like the BMW system, the logic 7 is designed to emulate surround sound, so there is channel differentiation across left/right & front rear.

The basic HK system is standard stereo image with better speaker and better LFE.

Huge difference when on (from the driving seat anyway)

feel free to listen to mine !

don't know how 'true or natural' it is but it sounds better for the vehicle environment

I have the HSE so I assume the preimume ICE - I find it generally pretty good BUT i do notice some resonance in the speakers on some tracks with heavy bass when playing loud. Especially in what sounds like the rear passenger speaker. I have not had a real chance to determine if something else is resonating - when I get some time I'll try to diagnose before getting the stealers to take a look.

Somewhere on here there is a post with some recommended settings for the Logic 7 system. From memory, the bass was significantly reduced for a better aural experience.

CY go into the settings and if yours has the HK 'logic' you will find an option to turn it off. If not you dont have it Thumbs Up

Good call - i played with the bass setting and found that if I turned it down just a notch (I had it set at about 75%) then the bass in the speakers was reduced just enough to stop resonating but the subwoofer still gave enought kick. When playing loud theres still plenty of bass and the sound is very good - even fairly reasonble from MP3 discs.

I've got the logic 7 system, 13 speakers... i can find 12 - 3 in each front door and 2 in each rear door and 2 in the rear pillars. where's the 13th (the sub?) i have seen mention of the lower tailgate - but nothing there as far as i can see?

You actually have 14 speakers with the HK Logic 7 system. Very Happy

3 in each front door, 2 in each rear door, 2 in the rear pillars, 1 subwoofer hidden behind the panel in the lower boot lid and one speaker in the middle on top of the dash.

This gives you the 7.1 surround sound Thumbs Up
