Happy to! I've never had a car with three drivers in each door. There's noticeably more detail across the mid frequencies which I presume is a result. They use the same kevlar cones as in my D2s (and two prior floor sets before), same as they do in BMW, I see.

In addition to a full equalizer, it offers the ability to select the acoustic of three venues - studio, stage, or concert hall. The concert hall produces a fairly faithful warmth and soundstage for orchestral pieces unlike anything I've had in any previous car.

I had two Audis before this (A6 Avant, then A4 Avant). The Volvo driving experience is not as engaging as either Audi or BMW. If Audi and BMW were still bringing the A6 or 5-series wagons to the US, my choice would have been more difficult.
