What audio system do i have???

Guys i am so confused and lost at the moment as there are so many combination and audio systems for mercedes that i am about to pull my hair out.

I am from Australia and from my understanding we get the EUROPEAN Mercedes.

The car is a 2004 W211 E500.

*I BELEIVE* its got the NTG1 COMAND system. (refer to pic attached)

in the audio setting menu i can select "Logic 7 audio"
On the doors the speaker covers have Harman Kardon Badge.

Now what system is this? and does it USE AGW? (Audio Gateway) ? and is it MOST? and is it CANBUS?

i am wanting to order the new DYNAVIN unit but in order to do so i need to know what i am running currently.

Best Regards

Michael

You have the upgraded HK system, and yes it is AGW and MOST, also your steering wheel is on the wrong side

Yes as the previous poster said, you have the high-line Harmon Kardon system which uses fiber optics to the AGW which is also the amplifier.

Good luck with the Dynavin. I've not heard of a completely successful installation of one of these in an HK equipped vehicle.

Stay away from the Dynavins, they are filth compared to the stock system.

I'm in Australia too and i have the same system as you (except the logic 7) and i went back to stock after weeks of attempting to get the Dynavin to function correctly.

When you do get it working, the menu and layout drives you insane after a day of using it. It freezes and the sound quality is poor.

Just my two cents.

Dynavins idea is brilliant, but execution has gone belly up big time. Don't buy it, donate the money to a charity organization instead.
