S Coupe High End 3D Audio

Does anyone have more info on this $6400 option. Apparently it's not the same as the sedan. MBUSA lists the option in the coupe as:

Optional / $6,400
Engineered to be the pinnacle of mobile high-end audio, the Burmester® 3D system combines innovations in automotive audio with their legendary quality. A 1,540-watt amp combines analog and digital signals to deliver the most natural sound spectrum in any musical genre. A total of 24 speakers includes a trunk-mounted subwoofer with its own 400-watt amp, speakers set into the full-length console, and innovative ceiling-mounted surround speakers. Adjustments include four preset listening modes.(Disclaimer)

There is no ceiling speaker and trunk setup is not the same as sedan. I did not see the subwoofer in the trunk on the demo coupe.

The subwoofer is under the trunk floor and the speaker is between the two back seats level with the seat and is toward the front of that area.

Ah yes I did remember that speaker on the edition one right behind the rear AC vents on the center console.

Also you don't get any fancy lit moving speakers like on the mirror triangles on the sedan.

Yes that's too bad. I like the fancy moving speakers in the sedan. I wish coupe had a similar setup. The cost of the high end system is same in sedan and coupe but seems like you get lot less in the coupe.
