w212 speakers
Hey, can anybody tell me the name of the stock sound system/speakers on the 2011 w212, and how many watts it has? :)
|
Harmon Kardon I thought came with every W212 but I could be wrong. Here is the site in which it says 630 Watts but that might be figures for the W213

Harmon Kardon is not standard equipment. The COMAND APS Logic7 has 14 speakers (Center dash, Front door, Rear Door, Rear Deck and Subwoofer). The standard systems are the NAVIGATION 20, the AUDIO 50 APS and do not have the center channel or subwoofer. Then there is the Bang & Olufsen system which is absolutely amazing and $$$$$.

Ahhh, I see. I never heard of that system. I thought it was HK or Burmester. Good info on the other systems as well.

Okay thanks, but is the Bang & Olufsen better than Burmester for the w213?
|
i think its the premium audio option for the 17 since i didnt see HK as an option for the 17 models.. the ones the W212 have is pretty good i'd say (HK7) you get more of a pounding bass on the W166 model though
|
I thought Logic7 was as high as it gets for the W212. The W221 had an optional B&O system. The W213 uses two different Burmester setups.

That is not correct. The B&O system is the highest end audio offered in the W212. It would most like be installed in an E63 or E550 instead of an E350 due to the high cost.
Notice the B&O tweeters in the A-pilar. https://cimg0.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.mbw...953950a00a.jpg |
Yep, B&O was a rare and expensive option. Having driven a 213 loaner with Burmester, that blows the 212 H/K out of the water. I wish I could have heard the 212 B&O for comparison.
|
Yeah the burmester 3D surroundsystem is a bit out of my price range, is the normal burmester with 14 speaker worth it though?

I have never seen this in any W212 I have looked at, but I would love to experience it. |
^ Same way I feel. Always good to have the wealth of knowledge from the community:)

13 normal Burmester speakers are on lower lower level and lower quality comparing HK Full Logic 7, especially play music with strong bass and max Volume Just 24 speakers 3D high end Burmester can blow out HK 7 out |
This is an old thread, but I actually agree with the necro post. The Burmester in the loaner E450 I drove was not as good as the L7 system in my W212.
|
Note that the HK Logic7 system, the components are actually Harman-Becker, and yes, Harman Inc owns Becker (since 1995), along with JBL, Infinity, Bang and Olufsen automotive, Crown International, AKG, dbx, Mark Levinson, and many others. Mercedes have traditionally used Becker radios going back to the 1960s.
and a couple years ago, Samsung bought Harman. yeeesh. |
