Picked my St line x first edition last month it does have the surround sound option but overall i do not think it sounds as good as the b and o in my fiesta active did, maybe it is because the fiesta is a little smaller? still sounds good but not as good. The speakers in the back do not have the b and o symbol on like the ones in the front either. Can only see 2 in the back, think the sub is hidden in the boot somewhere. Taking it in on Fri to get a software update for the traffic sign recognition as it is not reading all of them.

I've come from a Fiesta Active B&O edition and I don't think the B&O in the Puma sounds as good. The Sub is in a different place, it's at the side in the boot. The Fiesta had one central in the floor of the boot. Also, on the Puma there is no 'Surround' option.
That said, the sound is good enough for me.

There is meant to be a Surround Option, some of us have it, some of us don't. Seems to be missing more on the earlier builds.

Could you let me know how it goes with the update for the Traffic Sign Rec, and if possible ask them what this update is? Mine has just come back after I complained of it not working properly and was told there isn’t any update!

Subs on the right side above the rear wheel arch. Two speakers in each rear door card. It doesn't feel as punchy as there are no speakers high in the boot area due to the design of the flexible parcel shelf etc. I overcame this by setting the fader with front bias. I've never sat in the back.
