I needed to find a way to jury-rig a similar effect for a fraction of the cost. Unfortunately, the asking price for that Trinnov processor is absurdly beyond my budget.

The better solution is to install additional speakers in the center between the other height channels (Top Middle position).

Those speakers are now fixed in place with wiring through the walls and ceiling, and I can’t move them without remodeling the room. This issue is compounded by the fact that the locations where I had installed speakers when I built the home theater (before immersive audio was a concern I gave any thought to) were less than ideal for Atmos. That, combined with a low ceiling, makes it difficult for just four speakers (two in the front of the room and two in the back) to image a sound above my head convincingly. My own home theater is a long room with a lot of space behind my seats. If you're planning to pile on the miles, you might be better served by the Lexus NX or the Lincoln Corsair both of which offer powertrain protection for two years longer than the X2.Nonetheless, for some of us, a limit of four height channels isn’t enough to fill the top of the room with sound. BMW provides three years of included scheduled maintenance-a nice perk that Mercedes doesn't offer. When it comes to warranty coverage, the X2's policies are average.

The X2 doesn't boast the highest fuel-economy ratings in its segment, but it's still plenty efficient. BMW's X2 M35i Is More Hot Hatchback Than SUV.The BMW X2 M35i Is a Tiny Crossover with Big Power.

The X2 is a joy to pitch into fast corners and rewards the driver with its predictable nature. The trade-off is a high level of agility. When going over rough stretches of road, occupants will feel every imperfection in their seats. The X2 has a harsh ride, especially with the optional sport suspension. At our test track, the X2 xDrive28i snapped off a decent 6.4-second run to 60 mph-0.1 second slower than the Volvo XC40 T5. The engine is a sweetheart: eager to rev, silky smooth, and plenty gutsy. If you want all-wheel drive, you'll need to shell out $2000 more for the xDrive28i, which is powered by the same turbo four. Front-wheel drive is standard and BMW calls this model the sDrive28i. The X2 is powered by a 228-hp turbocharged four-cylinder and comes exclusively with an eight-speed automatic transmission. Most buyers will find the front-wheel drive sDrive28i model to be perfectly suitable, although we'd like to point out that the boxier X1 is more practical and received an overhaul this year that brings more modern features.
