- look at the radio and select TONE and see if PRO LOGIC SURROUND is an option.

'08 AM Vantage V8 - '03 E500
The 2003 may be different, if that's what Ecin has.

The window sticker for my 2003 lists "Premium Sound System" as part of a $1550 "E2 Value Added Package" which also includes the sunroof. I assume that's the HK audio. Pressing the hard key with the two notes on it brings up a screen with an "Options" softkey. Choosing "Options" brings up a choice of four audio modes, one of which is "Logic7".

My '03 has a subwoofer under the package shelf but doesn't have door badges referring to anything but airbags.

Yeah, if the soft menus say Logic 7, that's the HK sound system.
