XS & HSE Audio System Differences.

Apart from the obvious differences given the HSE has the DAB, 7.1 pro-logic & extra speakers has anyone had much experience with comparing the XS 9 speaker system to the HSE system in terms of general sound quality, depth etc & noticed any real differences?
I am not concerned about radio more CD sound. (Past) Freelander 2 HSE 2010 MY In Rimini Red.
(Past) RR Evoque Dynamic Lux Si4 In Firenze Red.
(Past) RR Evouque Pure Tech in Barollo Black with bespoke Firenze Red colour coding.
(Present) Freelander Metropolis 2015 MY In Santorini Black with Ivory Premium Leather.

I have an XS and find the sound quality to be very good in the front, listening mostly to CD and ipod. I haven't heard the HSE so can't comment but don't see the benefit of Dolby pro logic in a car??

There is a sub-woofer in the XS (at least in my MY11). If I have got this right there are 10 speakers in total. The 14 speaker set-up in the HSE adds 2x rear pillar and 2x more rear doors? Trevor

2010 Freelander 2 TD4 HSE Auto Rimini Red

There is good and better, I doubt you will notice the difference. The salesman during my trade in suggested I had a woofer in my SE, news to me if true! Fun to play with the 2.1 though...... Upgraded to an ex demo, 7 mth old, Rimini Red/Ebony Napoli Auto HSE on 28th Jan 2011, added roof rails, mudflaps and side strips.
Gone - A great 57 Plate, Auto SE, Bought Feb 2009, Roof Rails and Mudflaps added on purchase. Blue colour, anything but drug dealer black.....

My MY11 XS has DAB and 6 CD autochanger, paid a bit more to have them and in my opinion well worth it.
