Driving six hours on noisy roads yesterday, it was necessary to turn the volume down as this high efficiency and accuracy upgrade really does work fantastically. However, it is only 2 channel stereo, and not comparable to 5.1 surround sound as the HK system provides.
hey Bill

Thanks again

I wasn't paying attention when I upgraded from my 2013 to a 2018. The 2013 sound system was the best. This one is sad. Im going to have to upgrade.

@JOHNRYANB: A POPULAR THREAD IS https://mbworld.org/forums/c-class-w...r-upgrade.html

For about $250 using 2 ohm impedance speakers, effectively performs like a 400 watt system. SPLs of over 120dB can be obtained (not in the bass tho, that would require an additional subwoofer, which are not expensive). Best of success!
