in the G30 the difference in numbers - HK has more speakers at the rear, same number at the front. HK has more power at max volume, Hifi will be distorted near max volume. HK has surround sound processing. (although Hifi doesn't say anything about surround sound, it does surround sound processing - i covered up the center speaker and the vocals were missing from the side speakers - they put the instruments in the side and reduced the vocals and channelled vocals to the center in the Hifi. So it must be processed.

In the G20 (3 series) HK and Hifi use the same actual speakers

It is possible in the G30 they could also do that and be using the same speakers ... but maybe not being more luxury, i can't confirm either way ... mine has B&W - that is a different league!
Salesperson mentioned the difference was just surround sound but he didn’t know the ins and outs of it.
