Reviews

  • Edmunds

    "The Escalade continues to break new ground with its audio system by pairing with AKG…"

  • CNET

    "… if only the best will do, you're going to want the AKG Studio Reference system. With a whopping 36 speakers it should absolutely crank. Powered by three separate amplifiers, it has sound emitters throughout the cabin, in the ceiling, headrests and even the center console"

  • Forbes

    "… the Escalade takes automotive audio systems to an entirely new level with its exclusive AKG audio. Known for microphones and headphones used in recording studios and live venues around the world, AKG brings its audio technology to the auto industry for the first time in the new Escalade…offering a listening experience that exceeds that of the most acoustically perfect concert halls."

  • AutoBlog

    "“The sound system is another area that Cadillac was eager to brag about to us. It’s the first time that AKG has engineered an automotive audio system, and it doesn’t intend to disappoint… we expect this system to rival audio systems in cars double or triple its price..."
