As far as 20s vs 21s, 20s will have slightly better ride comfort, less traction due to slightly more narrow tires and slightly more body roll. 21s will be the inverse. Slightly better traction and less body roll with worse ride comfort.

I'm no audiophile and I can live with it, but I was very surprised when I bought my M3 at how mediocre it was. But you are right. It's not awfully bad, it's mediocre, even when equalized. The problem is expectations. After driving the car for 5 days you get used to it and just live with it without a problem.
Also, thanks for the comments on the wheels!
