I too have an X5 with the B&W system. It sounds better in the X5 than it does in my M5. I think the acoustics are better in the X5 for some reason.
The larger open cargo space in the x5 allows for better acoustics, specifically bass. Similarly matched audio systems will always sound better in an SUV than a sedan with a closed trunk
