The extra 115 watts will be used to pump engine noises into the cabin, even though there is no engine, because no BMW would be complete without fake engine noise. I’m trying to figure out if that’s why the sub-woofers are under the seat? to pretend like there is an ICE running?
Interesting. Gimmicky? Yes. But, it will work. B&W makes legendary speakers. They are just installing a fancy surround sound. Not sure why you would want decoded surround sound for 2 channel audio. Guess the kids in the back seat can enjoy 5.1 surround for their Dora the Explorer binges, lol. On the tactile bit. I have 4, 12 inch subs under my couch, floating on isolaters. The whole idea is tactile feel, and it works in spades. However, this is for movies, with special eq’d sound designed to pick up the 0-20hz range. It isn’t much good above 40hz. Most music, is going to peak at 35hz to 40hz.
