Mercedes-Benz is the first to roll out Apple Music's Spatial Audio in cars
Apple Music's Dolby Atmos implementation creates a 3D soundstage by spreading sounds across different channels, though the level of the effect depends on a song's mix. In the Mercedes implementation, the spatial audio effect will come from six of the 31 speakers located above the driver. Other speakers include four near-ear speakers in the front seats, eight sound transducers and two amplifiers that pump out 1,750 watts of power.
