Default B&O sound - opinions

Ever since I drove an S8 with the B&O audio I have been wanting one of these setups. I was very happy when it was offered on the A4 and ordered my Avant with the B&O sound. I have had the car now for a few days and have been playing with the system, listening to different types of music, etc. So far I am impressed, the sound is tight, lots of bass response, the DSP settings for driver, front, back, etc make a lot of difference. No final verdict yet but so far I am thinking it was well worth the extra bucks. It sounds better than the Harman Kardon I have in my SLK but that is a much smaller cabin with completely different acoustics.
Who else has B&O in their B8s? What do you think of the sound?

Default Very good

in fact I think it is the best in car system that I've heard. I spent a few days in a S8 with B&O last week and for some reason I think I prefer the B8's system. I also have B&O in the R8 and in that car it's not as good as the cabin environment is not design for that.
