Although I do with agree with you to some extent, the quality rates as "acceptably good" to me.

My previous car was a 2009 Renault Megane II, and the standard sound clarity it offered was *far* superior to my F20's. Two factors contributed: Renaults are very well insulated in general (tons of foam everywhere), and it had dashboard-mounted tweeters. I actually really miss this sound, seeing as I'm a bit of an audiophile, but getting HK in my BMW wasn't really an option, as I had to pick a car from stock.

Playing Adele's "Someone like you" from the Royal Albert Hall soundtrack from CD is pretty good in the beemer, but not nearly as good as it was in the Renault. That being said, I'm used to a proper Blu-ray setup with Mordaunt-Short speakers at home...
