3D "burmester" Speaker addition

Found this nice looking thing:

It looks nice but the price is a bit high and I can't comment on the quality.

Those do look nice and would match the face of the standard Burmester system but would they sound a little weird because doesn't the 3D Burmester system use different speakers or is tuned differently? I love the swivel effect of those speakers. With regard to price, to add it when building is $4,550 so for $400 for those 2 speakers seems like a decent price.

They seem to come with some kind of box, maybe a filter/and or amplifier where you connect them.

I was thinking for the other speakers. The standard Burmester system comes with 14 speakers whereas the high end 3D Burmester comes with 23. I don't know if it will work well with the other speakers.

I assume they just work like normal tweeters and hence would not cause any problems to your sound field. If you can change your regular tweeters (as some people have done) to after market tweeters I am sure you can use those too.

Somewhere I read that those pictured are OEM but I can't comment on that.

From that webpage:
"same size and function as the original top E class imported stainless steel and motor 3colors ambient light for W205,64 colors ambient light for W213 that speaker ambient light consistency with door panel ambient light let you car immediately from low to high class with car standard wire and control box that easily control the rotary speaker have W205 W2132 and W222 totally 3 modles for your choice"

I like how it comes out, motirized too. Looks cool.

I have always wondered where these 9 extra speakers are located, anyone who knows?

The tweeter will work just fine with any system its just a tweeter. On the 3d system you simply have more of them in additional areas to allow more DSP modes. Since it has more speakers it also uses additional amps for them but that is it.

Of note, the installation described an S class it might vary on the E class! I do think they look cool too.
