It's horrendous at times.

What I find the most disconcerting is the fact that is that I paid $3700 for this option and it's appears that they were more concerned with aesthetics over quality control. I know if I got into a friends car and heard that, and found out how much he paid for that option I would laugh at him and tell him he got shafted.

My two options are to just deal with it, or bring it to the dealers attention. I don't know what to expect. Will they change out the front speaker?

Is anyone else experiencing this same problem?
I'm sorry that the B&O is not working out for you - maybe take it to a auto-audio specialist to have them figure out how to eliminate the rattles?

I'll probably get flamed for this but IMO, B&O is just a European BOSE - mostly marketing hype and aesthetics, which the consumer is paying for over true quality of materials and overall product.

No offense to current B&O owners, this is just my opinion.
