Identifying Harmon Kardon

How can I tell if my 2011 E350 wagon has a harmon kardon sound system?

When I bought the vehicle recently, I wasn't told that the wagon had the Harmon Kardon sound system and I had assumed it didn't. But the mouse type on the dealers description of the vehicle says Audio System Premium Brand and there was a Harmon Kardon DVD in the glove box. I don't see the HK label anywhere inside the vehicle. The audio quality is pretty good and I'm happy with it but I'd like to know what I have for sure.

previous owner may have taken the HK logo on the tweeters but i think mine says "810 Premium Sound System". for the HK system.

Just a wild guess here, but you could use COMMAND to see if Logic 7 on/off option is present. Registered trademarks can't be used by others.

Never mind. I'm a moron. The tweeters in the front do have the Harmon Kardon badging. Here I was thinking that this vehicle didn't have the premium sound system and it turns out it does. Sweet!

Good on you mate. But imho, it sounds better when the logic 7 is turned off. Enjoy!
