While browsing the new S-class 2013 pictures I noticed the brand Burmester as sound system, that triggered extra curiosity antenna’s at me. So I browsed the for me reference websites, no sign of Bang & Olufsen any more regarding the new S-class. On the official MB website the options only show the Burmester availability. Does anyone know if Bang & Olufsen is working on a sound system? Has anyone spotted a S-class close to the Danish development department?
The pictures show a Danish speaker grill similarity…
Visual: The tweeters rotate!
As a visual highlight, the tweeters in the mirror triangles of the front doors are particularly sophisticated. When the head unit is switched on, they rotate by 360° and perform a screwing motion of ten millimetres towards the occupant. This ideally aligns the tweeters for an optimal sound impression.
If the ambience lighting is switched on, the two tweeters are illuminated in one of the seven available colours. The same applies to the overhead console, which is also elegantly emphasised by the ambience lighting and accommodates two of the three overhead speakers.
Has Berlin home city for Burmester won on Struer this time?

From the MB Website:
As alternatives to the standard sound system with ten loudspeakers, two very high-quality audio systems are available which were developed together with hi-fi specialists at Burmester: Burmester® Surround Sound system and Burmester® High-End 3D Surround Sound system.
