I know my system in the M3 is simply awesome. Given the open space in the X3 I would say it will improve the sound stage. It cost $2500 to option and I think it's worth that. The subs unders the seats make a huge difference and you feel it through the seats. Spine-tinggling
Congrats!!! And yes I'm jealous...for sure b/c the 16/Dirac setup is not available in US versions of the X3...big bummer..hence the reason why I skipped. I've heard the Dirac setup in an M3 and it is great which is why I was hoping it would come to us, but no luck. I think UK and AU x3s will get it on the higher end (but pricey as you point out) systems...worth it in my mind for you, premium hifi here in US not as worth it...again hence the reason why I'll do something aftermarket to get Dirac like setup. Good luck mate!
