How do you tell the 590w Burmester system apart from the 1450w one?
So as the title asks, MB has now made the 590w system from the A-Class? just about standard in all AMG E-Class's, so I'm wondering how to tell that system apart from the better one.
IIRC 2017 and 18 (no idea when it changed) had a non branded stereo and the 1450w Burmester system (Was this called "3D" with no "High-End" moniker like in the S-Class?) that was a fairly pricy option. Right now ONLY the E53 Sedan is able to be equipped with a 3D High-End system, assuming trickle down as the S-Class has moved to a 4D system, every other E-Class is stuck with the base 590w system. I'm looking for a used E-Class as I want a better sound system than the 710w or 590w systems in the C-Class, lot's of people said the E-Class systems sounded better before knowing there was a difference, but I have no idea how to identify the older 1450w system.
The S-Class "High-End" systems are easy to tell apart, just look for the spin out tweeters, but in the E-Class I have no idea if there is a visual difference, an option code or even what years this system was/wasn't avalable.

High end also has speakers where the roof sunglass holder compartment is and in the middle of the roof between the front and rear passengers. Pictured below.

The tweeters won't do much other than looking cool brother. ZeferPerformance.com can hook you up with the tweeters. He's got great service and he's an AMG fanatic.

Check ebay.

By the way, wagon and sedan A pillar config is different. These 3D tweeters will NOT fit wagon.

Ill advised.
Requires new roof panel with speaker cut outs already done,, different amp and the speakers. More than likely new woring but the roof harness might have that (BIG MAYBE)
With out true Dolby Atmos or DTS X ...waste of money.
