Sound quality (lack of bass)

I've always noticed that my 2016 750 (with HK audio) has never had the bass quality that either of my old X3 vehicles had. I recently had a 2020 740 with BW audio loaner and the audio quality was nearly identical to my HK when the EQ was set to the same settings. This weekend I drove my daughters 2012 528 (same EQ settings) and was blown away by how good the bass was in her car. It reminded me of why I loved the "Business class" head units in each of my X3s. Does anyone happen to know if the enclosure under the seat on the 7 is just not nearly as deep, or large? I realize that they aren't "subwoofers" but once you hear the same stuff in the 528, it's shocking how much louder and deeper the bass is. It makes sense now why I can hear the bass thumping from inside the house when my daughter pulls up, before I even get a motion alert from the Ring camera. It sounds amazing.
