I can tell the difference between "crappy" and "good" though.

For all of these reasons, I decided to go with the HK, I'm still waiting and allocation, and have considered a couple of times changing my config to BW but would love to hear from those of you who have the HK if you are happy with it, any regrets?

I know you BW owners are going to tell me there's nothing else that matters in the universe and it's the most amazing thing ever, so put yourself in my ears for a moment, worth it?
The only person who can really answer that is you. Listen to both if you can and decide. Based on what you said above, I'd say keep your money.

The B&W is great. Significantly better than the B&W in my X5 to my ears. I wasn't able to order my car with it though and am getting the HK instead, which I haven't listened to as of yet. Reviews I have seen on YT have said that the HK is very good as well.
