The problem here is that there are NO speakers at back doors but only at trank . You clearly feel that the sound is coming from the front part of the car and the general experience is bad . The system also is TOO bassy . i enjoy the music more inside my VW Golf 7 !

HI FI is the best VFM here. I wasted money choosing Hk option .
I have to agree with you here... I've had HK in Mercedes and my 5 series BMW's they were very good. I test drove an X1 with HK and it did not sound too much better than the HiFi... While I admit perhaps tweaking the HK might have helped at bit. I found the cabin a bit smaller on the X1 and the HK cost vs price of car not worth the extra 2.5% of the price.

Glad i found my X1 with everything i wanted and did not have to get the HK
