Dynaudio in their VW and Volvo setups do the same thing with DSP.......I don't know who supplies the headunits......is HK still using Becker?

I find it interesting the BMW went this route instead of a branded system. With Lexus using a more expensive HK system (Mark Levinson...same company),Audi using B&O(well.....visteon makes the drivers),and VW and Volvo teaming up with Dynaudio, I guess BMW was forced to act. Naming it BMW Individual also seperates BMW from MB which uses the same OEM (HK) for their audio.

Seems like the Hexacone is like a Kelvar like material.

BMW showcased the system at the Munich High End audio show.

Also,this is a nice website for BMW fans.
This is a good thing, Eton makes great speakers.

Are you serious?
I'm not even going to argue on someone's fantasies when someone suggests that L7 is Eton 🤦*♂️😂
Logic7 is another name for the Harman Kardon system which is made by same name company.
Dirac is some unknown company which exists for as long as 15 years 😂 and already are OE supplier for BMW 😂🤦*♂️
Eton are great German speakers and I have a pair in the rear side panels but again they never ever was an OE supplier for BMW.
Of course, BMW does not make their own speakers, for e46 OE supplier was Nokia (it was on the speaker), for e92 the information I got was Philips (compare the names and volume of these giants and the names you mentioned).
