Audio / Music in 2019 G?
Has any one reviewed the audio quality in the new G? I am curious if the upgraded audio system is worth it. Is there an upgraded audio system? I am not a big audio guy but listen to podcasts on long drives. I have infants so I am not pumping up the audio like I used to.

I am not keen to upgrade the seats in the $6k leather pack. But it seems to me that the audio upgrade might be tied to it? (I always end up with a nonfunctioning seat stuck in a weird position with my fancy seats).

Any points of view on this?

Thanks G-ents

When we did our build in November, there weren't any options for upgraded audio systems - it came standard with the Burmester surround in the US, which I believe is MB's top of the line.
