As I understand it, at this point, only a specific Maybach (I think it was an S class or a GLS possibly) with a Burmester Upgrade++++ system (I made that option name up), is truly capable. As mentioned, I definitely want to understand more of this and start writing about this side of the biz going forward, as I do think it will become more sought out information as our vehicles evolve. My investigations will continue. 1

TIDAL can't in any circumstance. so i am gathering with CarPlay.. though gosh thats a bit of disappointment with tidal ... 8 minutes ago, Marc said: Mercedes-Benz vehicles are the first non-Apple devices to offer this native integration with Spatial Audio and Dolby Atmos directly from Apple Music. this is very good .. it means it eliminates the streaming of the phone.. wired or wireless removing that atleast from the equation. i have a A&K DAP that has apple lossless natively but i bet best it can output is 2ch as well... so good the car itself can do directly .. 10 minutes ago, Marc said: These cutting-edge audio setups boast an impressive array of 31 speakers, which fully unleash the true potential of Dolby Atmos. be good to know where all these 31 ? speakers are ? are there heights ?

My investigations will continue. that will be great ... we lack a lot of info these days on this kind of thing and even any sort meaningful reviews.. i am sure there are folks that appreciate audio in cars too.. especially since we are sort of stuck with what comes in a car these days ...
