Clarity of the HK is good, maybe lacking in sound stage compared to my HD800s but we are not looking at a top-end sound system here.
Plan to do more fine-tuning tomorrow and share my result.

I'm not looking to rattle my trunk lid from the bass or anything, but...this stereo is just thin. The "Sony" stereo in my 8 year old Focus is VASTLY superior...and there should be nothing in an 8 year old Focus that's better than what comes in a brand new BMW.
I'm just looking for a more satisfying, full sound without being overweighted anywhere. Keeping my eyes out for potential hardware upgrades, although I really don't want to tear the car apart to do that and introduce all the rattles and panel creaks that inevitably come along with the un/re install. Meanwhile, will continue fiddling with EQ settings...
