Sound of Performance

Bang & Olufsen BeoSound AMG has been developed exclusively for Mercedes-AMG cars, appealing directly to both aesthetic and auditory senses when switched on. BeoSound AMG in the Mercedes-Benz SLS AMG is the first sound system developed exclusively for Mercedes-AMG, adding a unique sensory aspect to the inside of the car.

The dominant aircraft engineering design theme in the cabin is perfectly embodied by the dynamic design language of the Bang & Olufsen acoustic lenses on the dashboard, in a sporty-dynamic way they are illuminated similar to the award-winning BeoLab 9 speaker. This illumination in the cars has both a day and a night mode, each triggered by a sensor behind the rearview mirror. Picking up the galvanised silver shadow of the air vents, the acoustic lenses and the speaker grills exude the level of craftsmanship that both Mercedes-AMG and Bang & Olufsen are so renowned for.

Based on the philosophy of Bang & Olufsen the BeoSound AMG system aims to achieve a clean and precise reproduction of what the artist intended. For the Mercedes-Benz SLS AMG the experience in car sound tuning was the key of achieving this goal no matter how fast the SLS is driven. Static and dynamic sound tuning on the road ensured that, for instance hardware, visual design parameters and interior materials have been taken into account.
