A sound experience that gives you wings: High-end sound system for the SLS AMG

Struer, Denmark, May 04, 2010 - Mercedes-AMG has developed a custom-designed sound system for the Mercedes-Benz SLS AMG together with the prestigious hi-fi specialist Bang & Olufsen. With a total output of 1000 watts, eleven loudspeakers and sound distribution which can be configured to suit personal preference, this system offers a very special listening experience. The high-end sound system is the result of cooperation between Mercedes-AMG and Bang & Olufsen.


The Bang & Olufsen BeoSound AMG high-end sound system offers a superlative music experience. This is made possible not just by the amplifiers, which give a 1000-watt output, and the eleven loudspeakers, but also by the precise distribution of the music signals to the driver's seating position, the passenger's seating position or to a central point, as selected. With the help of the digital sound processor (DSP) it is also possible to choose between the "Reference" high-end studio sound or voluminous surround sound.

The system is operated using a specially-created Bang & Olufsen menu in the COMAND APS control and display system. The illuminated, lens-shaped 50-watt tweeters in the instrument panel and the two subwoofers built into the parcel shelf are particularly stylish. The high-quality "Silver Shadow" metallic loudspeaker covers with the Bang & Olufsen logo signal just how exceptional this system is.

The new sound system costs EUR 7021 (including 19% VAT).

Bang & Olufsen, a synonym for high-quality entertainment electronics

Hi-fi experts view Bang & Olufsen as a premium brand offering superlative sound, design and quality, as well as being simple to operate. The company, which was founded in 1925 and is based in Struer (Denmark), is active in the fields of audio, TV and home entertainment and is one of the best-known entertainment electronics brands in the world.
