8500hz sounds like a very high cutoff for a tweeter, and obviously for the mid. The Hertz tweeters that I posted with 1,500hz cut off can probably really free up the mids and have clearer highs.

That being said, BMW should be ashamed of themselves. You should see the B&W system in the X6M - it has these gorgeous stainless steel grilles, the speakers are backlit and I can change brightness and colors.

In the Rolls Royce the grilles are even more gorgeous, they are like work of art. Yet behind them, you get basically a run of the mill sound system that is only impressive because all other BMW's sound systems are basically subpar.
