Mercedes-Benz original sound system brands vary depending on the model. Here is the introduction: 1. For its mid-range and entry-level models such as the E-Class and C-Class, the original equipment is usually Bosch sound system. 2. For higher-end models like AMG and S-Class, the Danish premium Harman Kardon is used. 3. Additionally, some models of Mercedes-Benz S-Class, E-Class, C-Class, A-Class, GLC, CLS, G-Class, and V-Series are equipped with Burmester sound systems. Below is a partial introduction to these three brands: (1) Both Harman Kardon and Burmester are highly renowned in the sound system industry, while Bosch sound systems are slightly less advanced. (2) Harman Kardon sound systems feature powerful impact and slightly muddy bass, making them a good choice for owners who love rock music. (3) Burmester, as a high-quality stereo sound system brand, is also highly praised.

My friend and I have been driving a Mercedes-Benz S-Class for several years, equipped with the Burmester sound system. The overall sound quality is exceptionally pure, with delicate detail handling when listening to classical music. High-end Mercedes models like the E-Class and C-Class also use this brand. Compared to standard car audio systems, its bass is more robust, and the highs are not harsh—music on long drives is incredibly relaxing. It's said that entry-level Mercedes might use other brands like Harman Kardon, but Burmester is the majority choice. When buying, it's best to opt for the high-spec version with Burmester to enhance the driving experience. Regular cleaning of the speakers to prevent dust buildup is recommended to avoid sound quality degradation. Overall, this is one of Mercedes' highlights in focusing on quality, making driving far from monotonous.

As a long-time car enthusiast, I've followed Mercedes-Benz audio systems for years. The most common factory-installed option is Burmester, which dominates in luxury series. This brand is renowned for its precise soundstage and well-balanced treble, midrange, and bass, making it suitable for various music genres. Configuration varies across Mercedes models: AMG performance versions come standard with Burmester, while economy models like the A-Class may feature basic audio. Compared to BMW's B&W or Audi's Bang & Olufsen, Burmester emphasizes overall immersive experience, ideal for long drives. I recommend testing the sound system when purchasing - good audio quality directly affects driving comfort. From discussions in community forums, many owners find this configuration worthwhile despite the higher price, as it offers long-lasting performance.

After driving a Mercedes-Benz C-Class with the Burmester sound system, I felt the audio quality was excellent, especially when listening to pop music. Most new Mercedes-Benz models come standard with this brand, which is simple yet distinctive, with sufficient bass that's loud enough to make driving and listening to music enjoyable without feeling dull, perfect for daily commuting. When choosing a car, you can check the configuration sheet to see if it includes the Burmester system. The entry-level version might be slightly inferior, so an upgrade is recommended. Additionally, maintenance is simple—just regularly wipe the speakers to ensure they last longer.
