Which cars come standard with Burmester sound systems?
2 Answers
Cars that come standard with Burmester sound systems include: BMW, Mercedes-Benz, Cayenne, Porsche, Bugatti, etc. Taking BMW as an example: The BMW logo stands for Bavarian Motor Works, and the colors and combination of the logo are derived from the coat of arms of Bavaria, where BMW is headquartered. BMW's model series include the 1, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, i, M, X, and Z series. Among them, the 1 Series is a compact car, the 3 Series is a midsize car, the 4 Series is a midsize coupe (including convertibles), the 5 Series is a mid-to-large-size car, the 6 Series is a mid-to-large-size coupe (including convertibles), the 7 Series is a luxury D-segment car, the i Series consists of BMW's non-production concept cars, the M Series represents BMW's high-performance and sports car versions, the X Series is BMW's dedicated SUV (Sports Utility Vehicle) lineup, and the Z Series is BMW's entry-level sports car.
I pay close attention to the audio system configuration and have driven many Mercedes-Benz cars, quite a few of which come with the factory Burmester sound system. The Mercedes S-Class, regardless of the version, comes standard with it, and the surround sound effect is particularly stunning—listening to classical music in the back seat feels like being at a live performance. The top-tier E-Class models also have it, but you need to check the configuration list carefully, as it's an optional extra for lower trims. Among SUVs, the GLS600 and Maybach GLS definitely come standard with it, while for the G-Class, only the G63 is equipped with it. For electric vehicles, the high-end EQS models come standard with the large Burmester system. Over at Porsche, you can opt for the Burmester system, but it costs an extra 50,000 to 60,000 yuan. The difference in audio experience between these cars is quite noticeable when driving, so I recommend testing them by connecting your phone via Bluetooth and playing a piece of symphonic music—the clarity in the mid and high frequencies is immediately apparent.
