It's the most expensive and comes with 16 speakers with neodym magnet drivers, digial 9 channel amp and DSP. It has silver speaker covers and is approx £600 more expensive than Logic 7 at around £1,200 - £1,400 depending on model.

Imo, the Individual is overpriced compared to the Logic 7. The £870 BMW Professional system is acceptable and the one to go for.

I've never heard the BMW Business.

Another point to bare in mind is aftermarket. By choosing the bog standard system and spending £1,000 approx on aftermarket. The sound quality would be far better than the BMW Professional without doubt. But not everybody wants to have their new car in pieces.
Cheers, I'm a bit annoyed I didn't go for professional now but having spent a sh!t load on options already, I had to draw the line. Business is a 200W "upgrade" which is necessary so you don't get the bog standard system. Didn't BMWs still come with tape players as standard long after car CD players were the norm? Never owned one before but that's what I heard. Will post some feedback on business when I get mine.
