Audiophiles, Listen Up!

With the exception of a strong, bass-filled exhaust note, there is nothing that I love more than a favorite piece of music playing on a strong, clear sound system. That is why I love Mercedes-Benz so much, their S-class Burmester systems are simply unmatched in the automotive world for clarity. Below is a video of Dieter Burmester, the company principal, musician and electrical engineer describing the sound experience developed for the all-new S-class.

Particularly impressive are tweeters that actuate to find the optimal position for sound in the cabin. And high- and mid-range speakers mounted in the headliner that help to achieve a “lighter, more floating sound.” Listen to Burmester describe the collaborative process for developing the S-class’ audio and what he thinks was achieved.
